Virtual folders

Virtual folders enable you to access, browse to, and transfer files from a client to a managed server. You can mount and dismount a local or networked directory that is accessible through the client. After you create a virtual image of a folder or directory, the server connects to the image as a USB storage device. You can browse to the server and transfer the files from the virtual image to the server.

A virtual folder is nonbootable and read-only; the mounted folder is static. Changes to the client folder are not replicated in the mounted folder. To update your view of a virtual folder after changing the client folder, simply disconnect and then reconnect the virtual folder.
