Abstract
A method is disclosed for exposing virtual disk images on a user device, which is running an HTML5 KVM virtual media client in a Web browser, and which has established a KVM session with a KVM device associated with a remote device. A selected disk image file is initially obtained by the user device and a message sent to the remote device that the disk image file is available for use. The HTML5 KVM virtual media client exposes the disk image file for use to the remote device, which sends a message to the HTML5 KVM virtual media client requesting a specific portion of the disk image file. The HTML5 KVM virtual media client receives the message and a script engine running in the Web browser creates a new file available to the Web browser of just the portion requested by the remote device, which is then transmitted to the remote device.
