A brief explanation why I try to attach both at the same time:
- on CD I attach an official Ubuntu ISO
- on RemovableDisk I attach a cloud-init config image
On reboot, Ubuntu installs and configures itself automatically.

Hi @EajksEajks
For attaching multiple virtual media devices, supported index IDs are 1 and 2 not 0 and 1. Can you try using index 1 and 2 for attaching devices and see if it works.
See example below of attaching ISO (index 1) and IMG (index 2) at the same time.

Hi Tex,
There seems to be two URLs dealing with VirtualMedia:
-
/redfish/v1/Managers/iDRAC.Embedded.1/VirtualMedia/CD/Actions/VirtualMedia.InsertMedia
-
/redfish/v1/Managers/iDRAC.Embedded.1/VirtualMedia/RemovableDisk/Actions/VirtualMedia.InsertMedia
-
/redfish/v1/Systems/System.Embedded.1/VirtualMedia/1/Actions/VirtualMedia.InsertMedia -> CD
-
/redfish/v1/Systems/System.Embedded.1/VirtualMedia/2/Actions/VirtualMedia.InsertMedia -> RemovableDisk
Only the second one allows the simultaneous insertion.
Do you know the difference which justify there exists two different URLs?

By the way, the reason why it doesn't always work in my setup is because I used two different generations of PowerEdge servers (and I didn't pay attention). It doesn't work on R740/R640 (iDRAC firmware 5.x). It does work on R760/R660 (iDRAC firmware 7.x).

VirtualMedia support for Manager schema was legacy behavior and support has been deprecated. But the URIs for Manager schema are still reported for backwards compatibility if the user is still using older iDRAC firmware (5.10 or older).
Starting in iDRAC 6.00 VirtualMedia support for ComputerSystem schema was added to allow the user to attach multiple virtual devices at the same time and also be compliant with DMTF. If you run GET on URI "redfish/v1/Managers/iDRAC.Embedded.1" you will see "[email protected]" property reporting the correct URI to now use.
Example:
