![]() The system has 2 USB controllers and I cant tell what controller the USB hard drive is plugged into. I did check the VM Config prior to rebuilding the Server and it appeared to be added directly to the VM without having to do pass-through. Usb Device Descriptor Failure Install Via DeviceIs there a config file that manually needs to updated Would the external hard drive have a driver I would need to install via Device Manager. When I add the USB device is get the following warning, You need virtual USB xHCI controller on this virtual machine to enable USB 3.0 support for the select device. Connecting the device to the existing virtual USB controller may result in an undefined behavior for it. When I add the USB controller as xHCI is receive the following warning, This controller is not supported for this guest operating system and the VM does not boot until removed. HP does have a driver for USB 3.0 eXtensible Host Controller specific to the DL380 G9, giving me the impression it should work. I want to attempt the xHCI controller again, but always nervous when the VM doesnt boot. I see lots of information available for ESXI 5.5 and 6.5 but not 6.0. Heres an article I found and document on how to enable it specifically for the HP DL380 G9. To enable USB3.0 support in BIOS. Generally it is enabled or auto select by default.

Add XHCI controller to VM. In this case, please do not use EHCIUHCI virtual controller, it is not a officially supported scneario to connect USB3.0 device on virtual EHCIUHCI controller. BTW: the virtual XHCI controller and device can be hot addedremoved, you dont need to power off the guest then operate it. Just make it when running guest is fine. Connect your device to the VM to see if you can find it in guest. I get an error that they dont apply or the device is not found on the system USB 3.0 was set to AUTO within the BIOS, so I changed it to Enabled and testing it now Why do you say install xHCI drivers before add the xHCI controller Wouldnt it be the other way around and shouldnt I use the drivers available on the HPE website. And the HPE driver is targeting for system installed on bare metal, it wont work inside guest. So you can just add the virtual XHCI controller to the VM and try to find it in device manager. If it was shown as unknown device you can search driver online and install proper driver to make it work for you. If you already have the proper driver install then you should find it in device manager.
