usbdevsource not work

Post by mayost »

Hello to you

I've tried versions: 6.0.14, 6.1.0_BETA2

I have two Linux computers
  1. VirtualBox on Linux Hosts which Windows 10 Guests (name: win10)
  2. Linux Hosts USBIP (IP address 192.168.30.210)
I tried running the usbdevsource option on Linux VM host like this:
VBoxManage usbdevsource add "13fd: 3e40" --backend "usbip" --address 192.168.30.210
When I run Linux, the VM hosts the command:
VBoxManage list usbhost
I can see that he recognized the USB connected to a LinuxIP host well, it looks like this:
UUID:               00a5dccb-745f-44fd-85ec-549d16b7eb0e
VendorId:           0x13fd (13FD)
ProductId:          0x3e40 (3E40)
Revision:           16.96 (1696)
Port:               2
USB version/speed:  3/Super
Manufacturer:       Initio Corporation
Address:            usbip://192.168.30.210: 3240: 2-3.1
Current State:      Busy
But when I make:
VBoxManage controlvm win10 usbattach 00a5dccb-745f-44fd-85ec-549d16b7eb0e
I see Windows 10 Guests the USB device detected for a few seconds and gone

And when I run again:
VBoxManage list usbhost
I can see that the USB UUID has changed

Is it a bug?

First, thank you so much for your editing.

I forgot to mention that my host is:
Fedora 30 64BIT
OR
Fedora 31 64BIT
In both hosts, for testing I disabled FIREWALL AND SELINUX

Later I will attach the log file

I need to test this as well, I've been meaning to test remote USB for the longest time, maybe this is the "catalyst" I was looking for... ;)
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.

If you obfuscate any information requested, I will obfuscate my response. These are virtual UUIDs, not real ones.
