1. Use the fdisk -l command to determine the device file to use for the USB mass storage device. In the following screen shot, the device file is “/dev/sdb1”. 

2. Create a subdirectory called “usb”, using the following command.\:
   mkdir /mnt/usb
3. Mount the device file from step 1 by using the following command:
   mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb

Note: The mass storage device should be formatted before it is remounted with the following command:
mkfs –t ext3 /dev/sdb1

4. Export a VM using the XAPI with the following command:
   xe vm-export vm=<Name of VM> filename=<Name of file ending in “.xva”>

5. To see the file and its size, use the following command:
   ls –l

6. Unmount the USB drive using the following command:
   umount /mnt/usb
