Attaching or detaching partitions using RACADM
To attach or detach partitions:
1. Log in to the system using telnet, SSH, or Serial console.
2. Use the following commands:
•
To attach a partition:
racadm set iDRAC.vflashpartition.<index>.AttachState 1
• To detach a partition:
racadm set iDRAC.vflashpartition.<index>.AttachState 0
Operating system behavior for attached partitions
For Windows and Linux operating systems:
• The operating system controls and assigns the drive letters to the attached partitions.
• Read-only partitions are read-only drives in the operating system.
• The operating system must support the file system of an attached partition. Else, you cannot read or modify the contents of the
partition from the operating system. For example, in a Windows environment the operating system cannot read the partition
type EXT2 which is native to Linux. Also, in a Linux environment the operating system cannot read the partition type NTFS
which is native to Windows.
• The vFlash partition label is different from the volume name of the file system on the emulated USB device. You can change the
volume name of the emulated USB device from the operating system. However, it does not change the partition label name
stored in iDRAC.
