Hi.

What i want to do:
I have an openvz container with ubuntu and tvheadend streaming server. To passthrough my usb dvb-s2 stick i use the following in the configuration file for the container:

DEVNODES="dvb/adapter0/frontend0:rw dvb/adapter0/demux0:rw dvb/adapter0/net0:rw dvb/adapter0/dvr0:rw"


The server with the vz container is running 24h.
But the usb device is only plugged in when used.

As long as the dvb device is plugged in before the container starts, everything is working fine.

The problem:
If the vz container is started before the dvb device is plugged in. I can not access the device from inside the vz. I have to restart the container.

Question:
Is there a way to passthrough the device so it works even if the device is added after the vz container is started?

Thanks.
