How to add a disk |
Add a pass-through disk by filling in this template. Look at the existing passed through
disks and increment the virtio
ID by 1. Always use by-id
identifiers for disks
instead of e.g. /dev/sda
, as the latter can change between boots.
qm set <VMID> -virtio<ID> /dev/disk/by-id/ata-<ID>
e.g. if I already have virtio1
-virtio4
on VMID 100
, I would add virtio5
:
qm set 100 -virtio5 /dev/disk/by-id/ata-HGST_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX_XXXXXXXX
