In my fight demo at TechEd Europe 2014<\/a>, the topic was OOB File Copy, the ability to place a file into a VM\u2019s storage, via the VMBus, and without network connectivity to the VM (e.g. tenant isolation).<\/p>\n

The script does the following:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Cleans up the demo<\/li>\n
  2. Opens up notepad. I manually copy and paste text from a website into the file and save it.<\/li>\n
  3. Enable the Guest Service Interface for the VM to enable OOB File Copy<\/li>\n
  4. Copy the file to the VM<\/li>\n
  5. Disable Guest Service Interface<\/li>\n
  6. Connect to the VM. I manually log in and open the file to verify that the file I created is now inside of the VM<\/li>\n
  7. Clean up the demo<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
