Passthrough of 3.5 usb hdd is not recognize in vm

[duda]

hello,

i add a 3.5 hdd to the usb3 port and passthough it to a vm (3-2), but woudnt be shown in the vm.

proxmox


vm

vm when remove virtual usb hardware


other hardware like usb stick or 2.5hdd works.
I tested two 3.5 adapters, both are only shown and accessable inside proxmox but not in the vm.

i want to use this hdd only for backups on the vm and will be normally disconnected.

how does the config look like (qm config ID) what's your 'pveversion -v' and can you post an excerpt of the journal (with e.g. journalctl) when you start the vm?

[duda]

might it be a problem with the uas which is described here?

 

[dcsapak]

maybe, in general looks all normal except

Jun 20 21:28:15 proxmox QEMU[60254]: kvm: libusb_alloc_streams: got less streams then requested 31 < 32
Jun 20 21:28:15 proxmox kernel: xhci_hcd 0000:00:10.0: WARN: endpoint 0x82 has streams on set_interface, freeing streams.

though i cannot really say if these are just warnings or indicative of a problem
