Issues while passing two usb devices with same ID through to VM.

Featured Replies

I have a VM running an application called Klipper to control my 3D Printers. I had only one, but now I am trying to add a second. When I try to add both printers to one VM I am receiving the following error when trying to start the VM:

operation failed: Multiple USB devices for 1a86:7523, use to specify one

 And the VM doesnt start. Both of the devices show up as QinHeng Electronics CH340 serial converter (1a86:7523)

 

When I try to add both printers to either my Debian or Ubuntu Server VMs I get the following error while trying to save the VM instance: 

XML error: Hostdev already exists in the domain configuration

 

Does anyone know of a workaround for something like this? I dont mind having to run two separate VMs, one for each printer. I would just like to have them both controlled by klipper within a VM. I'd rather not have to try replacing a main board on one of them.

 

Thank you for any assistance.

Good afternoon, I'm looking for a way to control my 3d printer with unraid (it currently works on a raspberry pi with fluiddpi + klipper + moonraker) how can you use it in a virtual? I tried to virtualize isos for raspberry but I couldn't.

I setup a Debian virtual machine and used the Kiauh tool to install klipper. I've also had good luck with the Ubuntu Server iso. I wouldnt use the raspberry pi image.

 

Then use the USB Manager tools to forward your printer (I'd recommend forwarding the port) through to the virtual machine so it connects whenever the VM turns on.

Thank you very much, I can finally use my unraid server with my 3d printer, I leave as a summary for those who want it too:

Virtual machine
Operating System: Debian
After installing debian you add the usb to the virtual machine (select only your printer)
Finally continue installing with kiauh

Glad you were able to get it working!! Thanks for laying out a walkthrough for others, as well!!
