When adding a physical hard disk to a virtual machine running on KVM using the LUN Passthrough mode in virt-manager, I get the following error:



Error adding device: unsupported configuration: disk 'sda' improperly configured for a device='lun'


I am trying to give the guest access to a 3 TB hard drive attached via SATA. When trying to add the disk manually with virsh edit, I get a similar error. Is it possible to use LUN Passthrough with a SATA disk? If so, how can I avoid this error?






kvm qemu libvirt sata virtio

  • Try using Disk device as Device Type and just enter /dev/sda in the Manage field, instead of clicking Manage.

  • @Thomas Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried that and it works, however I specifically want to use LUN Passthrough.

  • Do you have a Virtio SCSI Controller attached to the VM? Just tested and did work.

  • @Thomas Yes, I have a virtio SCSI controller attached. What operating system did you use, and what bus is your physical disk attached with? It seems to work for me when using a USB drive, but not for a SATA hard disk.

Postfix configuration issue with fips on centos 7; mailgun relay

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am trying to setup postfix to relay all mail generated on the local machine via SMTP to a mailgun relay. I have used the mailgun relay before with success on an ubuntu server, but I am migrating to a Centos 7 server which I will be running in FIPS mode. There error log is below, slightly sanitized. I have a small enough network that I choose to have each machine reach out to mailgun individually (this the loopback-only, 127.0.0.0/8 restrictions) and no firewall open port allowing smtp in to the machine. I assume the FIPS mode (and with it disabling of MD5) is causing problems, but I don't know how to overcome it or if it is even possible for tls_fprint to use some supported hash such as sha256 or sha512. However, the relay=none is slightly concerning since I have relayhost set, but perhaps that is because the smtp process is failing? Any help would be appreciated! postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/etc/alia
