Hi!

In the last weeks I've migrated all my servers to proxmox and everything worked fine.

The last step is to migrate an old Win2003-Server used for TAPI software (connection software between phone an computers). Server Setup ist ok, but I need to attach the phone system to the Win2003 KVM.

The phone is attached by USB and is recognized in the PM console. lsusb and cat /proc/bus/usb/devices list it as device 2018:0401.

How can I attach this device to my Windows KVM (VMID 108)?

I've tried

Code:
qm set 108 --hostusb 2018:0401

but I get no error or success message back. Inside the Win machine I don't get any new devices. I hope using USB devices (besides storage) is possible at all, I don't want a standalone Server just for saving some kbytes a day when a call arrives.


Help!! :)

PS: Thanks to the Proxmox Team! Setting up multiple servers was never so easy before :D
 
You need to stop/start the VM. A simple restart/reboot does not show up new hardware. Does that help?
