USB storage pass-through for Hyper-V
Hi everyone, I have a 2012R2 hypervisor with two guests running on it. I need to be able to set up a pass-through connection of a Tandberg RDX drive to one of the guests. The hypervisor recognizes the drive but I cannot make it offline, to be able to add it to the VM. When trying via diskpart It gives this error:
Please note that this is the standalone hypervisor installation, not an app running on the standard server.
I've tried it with powershell to, using the below guide, but got a following error:

Any suggestions welcome.
