Moving a NVME from one VM to a new one

[dcarnelutti]

So, I created a new VM and I want to passthrough a NVME I had on a previous VM to the new one.

I detached the NVME from the old VM and I'm trying to attach it to the new one. However, I get an error "volume does not exist".

The disk exists as you can see here. Any advice as to why is this happening?

What does ls /dev/disk-by-id/nvme* say on the node?
And what does ls /dev/disk-by-uuid/nvme* say?

/dev/disk-by-id/nvme-CT1000P3SSD8_2314E6C52079

It's usually "/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-CT1000P3SSD8_2314E6C52079" and not "/dev/disk-by-id/nvme-CT1000P3SSD8_2314E6C52079".

It's usually "/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-CT1000P3SSD8_2314E6C52079" and not "/dev/disk-by-id/nvme-CT1000P3SSD8_2314E6C52079".

That was it... a typo.

Thanks!
