Hi,
How to mount USB drive on ESXI 5.0 ?
Hi,
Check these links:
Fist item is about mounting USB on ESXi 4.1 but it's working on ESXi 5.0 and above.
As Davoud said,you need to turn off the usbarbitrator in the host so that USB is made available only to the hosts,not to the VMs inside.
Then using mount command you can mount the USB.
If you are using an ESXVM,then you need to turn on usbarbitrator on the host.By default usbarbitrator will be on.
Right click the VM -Edit Settings-Hardware -Add-
USB controller.
Then Add USB device also.
Use mount command for mounting
hope this helps!!
