<title>Creating a Virtual Optical Disk Image</title>
<body>
<p>Use the <b outputclass="bold">VISO Creator</b> tool to create a virtual optical disk image from selected files on the host. </p>
<p>A virtual ISO (VISO) differs from a real ISO because the files remain on the host, unless you choose to copy the files to the guest. This makes a VISO faster to create and use, and you do not need guest additions. A VISO is read-only and is ideal for use as installation media or reference data.</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Display the <b outputclass="bold">Optical Disks</b> tab in Virtual Media Manager and click <b
outputclass="bold">Create</b>. </p>
<p>The <b outputclass="bold">VISO Creator</b> tool is shown. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Create the virtual ISO file. </p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>Configure the name of the ISO file. </p>
<p>Click <b outputclass="bold">Settings</b> and select the <b>VISO Options</b> tab. Enter the name in the <b
outputclass="bold">Viso Name</b> field. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Add files to your virtual ISO. </p>
<p>In the <b outputclass="bold">Host File System</b> pane, select files to copy from the host system to the
virtual ISO. </p>
<p>Click <b outputclass="bold">Add Items To VISO</b>. The files are displayed in the <b outputclass="bold"
>VISO Content</b> pane. </p>
<p>The following file operations are also available: </p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>To create folders on the virtual ISO, click <b outputclass="bold">Create New Directory</b>. </p>

<li>
<p>To remove files from the virtual ISO, select files in the <b outputclass="bold">VISO Content</b> pane
and click <b outputclass="bold">Remove Items From VISO</b>. </p>

Content</b> pane and click <b>Remove Selected Item(s) from VISO</b>.</p>
