Hello everyone.
Please help us in case you are advanced or expert in usb forwarding in proxmox / qemu-kvm.
We have had worked with usb-hub on previous version of proxmox 2.2.
All guest machines were possible to attach any usb device connected to hub.
We have used command "usb_add host:1.6" (bus.addr) in console of qemu without any troubles.
Everything was good even after restart of VM host.
Our colleagues have successfully used variant with specific parameters in the configuration file of vm-host like that:
args: -device usb-host,hostbus=1,hostport=5.3
The trouble appeared after the update to proxmox 2.3 and qemu-kvm to 1.4.0
As I know some new features with USB support has been realized in kvm 1.4
But for now we could not use both methods mentioned before.
It looks USB-hub is no longer avaliable in VM host.
The bash console in proxmox 2.2 VM host show in the past:
root@vmhost:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0409:55aa NEC Corp. Hub
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0627:0001 Adomax Technology Co., Ltd
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
and for now (proxmox 2.3) it is not the same
root@vmhost:~# lsusb
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0627:0001 Adomax Technology Co., Ltd
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
To the attempt of attaching new device with correct adress qemu console responses
"could not add USB device 'host:1.6'"
and no one method in the configuration file is not positive (we have tried several).
All string started with args are confusing the VM load (Error: unexpected status). Any other variants with combining keys like '-usb', '-usbdevice', '-device' are not opening neither usb devices nor hub.
Our internal VM farm is paralyzed. ;)
Could you please help ? It is not good variant to downgrade to old version of proxmox.
Thank you in advance.
