Hi, I'm trying to get my usb available inside my linux vm, but the vm does not see it.

When I plug in the usb, proxmox sees the usb device and I can 'add' it in the 'hardware' configuration. But when I run `lsblk` in my vm, I don't see the usb... I've tried selecting and de-selecting the usb-3 option. Still no luck.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Have you stopped/started the vm after adding the USB entry?
