Hello everyone,

i am running proxmox VE on an a320m mainboard. I have a nextcloud vm which has access to an hbm adapter via pci passthrough. I want to control some of my fans according to hdd temperatures. Is there any way to pass one of the hosts fan controllers through to an vm? More specifically i want to passthrough control for fan2

Code:
root@pve:~# ls /sys/devices/platform/it87.656/hwmon/hwmon1 | grep fan
fan1_alarm
fan1_beep
fan1_input
fan1_min
fan2_alarm
fan2_beep
fan2_input
fan2_min

I am grateful for any help
 
Any luck with figuring this out? Also what's your motherboard brand? Could you share the output of `uname -a`?
 
Still looking for it, but mine is a Unraid VM - I have CoolerControl on my host, but it can't see the HDD temps (hba card passthrough), so I thought of passing through the fan controller and installing fan control in Unraid.

I would be greatful if anyone can answer this
