hello I've had an on-going issue for some time. https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/s...storage-to-container.64179/page-2#post-299084
i have 4tb Samsung external USB HDD
connected to an Odroid H2 via usb 3 > running proxmox 6.3
a while back I attempted to use TurnKey linux FileServer to share the External HDD > mounting was a struggle but it did work. but Read Only
i've never been able to pass the drive to a Container or a VM with write access; the drive is not locked I can connect it to any windows device and read & write to the device.
Following steps here https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Passthrough_Physical_Disk_to_Virtual_Machine_(VM)
I passed the drive to a new OpenMediaVault VM instance 410
device visible in OMV web dashboard
but not in file systems, i'm assuming this means I need to mount something ?
fdisk -l on the OMV console shows
I tried
and received no errors
after reloading the web dashboard however, I still can't see the file system mounted
or select it as a disk to share in the SMB/CIFS menu
I thought OMV would be an easier solution, but I seem to have set myself back rather than move forward.
any ideas? Before with TurnKey FileServer I could share the Read Only block storage, now with OMV I can't even do that. sure would be great to share and WRITE to this drive of mine.
