Parallels Infrastructure Manager allows you to mount virtual disk files located on the Hardware Node to new drive letters inside any Container. Currently, only the efd virtual disk format is supported. Image files can be located anywhere on the Hardware Node (on your hard disk, CD-ROM drive, floppy drive, etc.) and should have the .efd extension.
The path to the virtual disk image is provided on the Mount Disk Image page, which you access by following the corresponding link on the Volumes page. On the Mount Disk Image page, you may either fill in the Image Path field manually (the path to the image should be absolute in relation to the Hardware Node) or click Select next to the field and navigate to the needed virtual disk file in the window that opens.
In the Mount Point field, choose the name of the drive from the drop-down list.
Click Mount after you have provided the path to the virtual disk file and the mount point, and the file will be mounted to the desired drive inside your Container.
Note: The permissions of the image file mounted to a Container correspond to those of this image file on the Hardware Node, i.e. you are able to perform the same operations on the file inside the Container as you are allowed on the Node.
