Currently (Stable version of Proxmox is 1.9) it's possible to map hardware usb port in a following way:
 
To map hardware usb port use the following instructions:
 
1. Find out physical port parameters (bus and port). On host run:
 
'''lsusb -t'''
/: Bus 05.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=uhci_hcd/2p, 12M
/: Bus 04.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=uhci_hcd/2p, 12M
/: Bus 0'''3'''.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=uhci_hcd/2p, 12M
|__ Port '''1''': Dev 4, If 0, Class=vend., Driver=usbfs, 1.5M
|__ Port 2: Dev 5, If 0, Class=vend., Driver=usbfs, 1.5M
/: Bus 02.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=uhci_hcd/2p, 12M
/: Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=ehci_hcd/8p, 480M
 
2. Edit the VM config file and add the following entry:<br>
 
'''usb0: host=3-1'''
 
Which corresponds to Bus number 3 and Port number 1 or you can use combination ''vendor_id:product_id ''(use ''lsusb'' command to get values)<br>
 
'''usb0: host=067b:2303'''
 
3. Power off/power on VM.

Revision as of 19:42, 21 December 2012

Currently (Stable version of Proxmox is 1.9) it's possible to map hardware usb port in a following way:

1. Find out physical port parameters (bus and port)

 qm monitor NNN
 qm> info usbhost
   Bus 3, Addr 2, Port 1, Speed 1.5 Mb/s
     Vendor Specific: USB device 0529:0001, HASP 2.17
   Bus 5, Addr 3, Port 2, Speed 12 Mb/s
     Class 00: USB device 0624:0248, USB Composite Device-0

2. Add the device to the particular VM (/etc/qemu-server/NNN.conf)

 args: -device usb-host,hostbus=3,hostport=1

or (as Proxmox 2.x supports usbN in vm.conf)

 usb0: host=3-1

3. Power off/power on VM and check

 qm monitor NNN
 qm> info usb
   Device 0.2, Port 1, Speed 12 Mb/s, Product QEMU USB Tablet
   Device 0.3, Port 2, Speed 12 Mb/s, Product QEMU USB Hub
   Device 0.4, Port 2.1, Speed 1.5 Mb/s, Product HASP 2.17
