Hello everyone,
I run pve 4.1-26 (kernel 4.2.6-1-pve) with 1 KVM guest (Windows Server 2008 R2).
I have a couple of USB dongles that must be passed through to the guest devices. The problem is that, though the dongles have USB interfaces, they are actually serial devices.
When I pass the USB ports to the guest:
But I could not then install the driver inside the guest; I guess the installer was looking for serial devices (COM0, COM1).
I thought I could pass the usb ports, then designate them as serial devices, like so:
When I started the device, I got the message:
Please help; how may I passthrough these (usb-to-serial) devices?
Thank you.

Code:
usb1: host=1-9
usb2: host=1-10

usb1: host=1-9
usb2: host=1-10
serial1: /dev/ttyUSB1
serial2: /dev/ttyUSB2
When I started the device, I got the message:
sudo qm start 201
no such serial device
Please help; how may I passthrough these (usb-to-serial) devices?
Thank you.
