Pass through SATA Blu Ray Drive (Proxmox -> Docker)

Post by ionas »

Hi!
I am running Proxmox on my self built Debian Server and a docker VM (not LXC).
I managed to pass through the Blu-Ray-Sata-Drive to my Docker VM and mapped it but it is not recognized …

Code: Select all

  networks:
    frontend:
      external: true
    backend:
      external: true
  services: 
    makemkv:
      image: jlesage/makemkv
      container_name: makemkv
      devices:
        - "/dev/sr0:/dev/sr0"
      environment:
        # - USER_ID=1000
        # - GROUP_ID=1000
        - TZ=Europe/Berlin
        - UMASK=022
       volumes:
        - /srv/rip/config/makemkv:/config
        - /mnt/Filme/mkv:/storage
      ports:
        - "5800:5800"
      restart: unless-stopped
Any ideas what to check?

Thank you!

Have you tried adding "--privileged" (privileged: true under makemkv: for compose) just to see if it works at all? If you run it privileged and it still doesn't work, but it does work on the host, then the most likely cause is that it isn't actually mounted at sr0, it may actually be at sr1, sr2,....

ie:

Code: Select all

  networks:
    frontend:
      external: true
    backend:
      external: true
  services: 
    makemkv:
      privileged: true
    	... the rest
