Hi all,
this is my first post on the forums.
I have a problem with connecting USB devices to a Primergy TX150 S7 and passing them through to a virtual machine.
This is what I've tried so far:
Primergy TX150 S7 with ESXi 4.1 on it.
Inside the ESXi 4.1 I've created a virtual machine, Windows 7, via the VMware Sphere Client.
I've added the USB Controller to the VM.
I connect a Fujitsu USB Mouse to the Primergy TX150 S7.
When I try to add the USB Mouse to the VM, it isn't possible because the option to add the USB Device to the VM is greyed out.
I've already tried the same with a Fujitsu USB Keyboard -> same problem.
Why do I want to make USB Passthrough work? --> right now the USB UPS isn't recognized by the VM, so I can't shut down the VM in case of power failure.
Can somebody help me please?
