Hi
i have a usb hdd which is shown as

lsusb
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 1058:1001 Western Digital Technologies, Inc. External Hard Disk [Elements]

so i edited the vmid.conf file and set

usb0: host=1058:1001

After shutting down vm and restarting, the device is not visible in a windows 7 ultimate.

i also tested the bus-version with
usb0: host=2-2

But did not work either.

What am i doing wrong?

Do i have to reboot the whole clusternode for usb-passthrough to be working?
