loadopt command
Purpose
Load a virtual optical media disk from the Virtual Media Repository into a virtual optical device.
Syntax
loadopt [ -f ] [ -release ] -disk FileName -vtd VirtualTargetDevice
Description
The loadopt command loads the specified virtual optical disk (FileName) into the
specified virtual optical device (VirtualTargetDevice).
Note: A particular virtual disk can
only be loaded into more than one file-backed virtual optical device simultaneously if the virtual
DVD is designated as read-only. If the virtual optical device already has a different virtual disk
loaded, the command fails unless the -f flag is specified, in which case an implicit unload
is performed first.
Flags
| Flag name | Description |
|---|---|
| -disk FileName | Specifies the file name of the virtual media to load into the virtual optical device. |
| -f | Force the media to be loaded even if the virtual optical device already has media loaded. |
| -release | Forces the virtual optical device to be unlocked even if the client has a reserve on the device. |
| -vtd VirtualTargetDevice | The name of the virtual target device. |
Examples

load the virtual optical disk clientData into the virtual optical
device vopt1, type the following command:
