[VIRTUALIZATION STATION] Share folder with Host with 9p Virtio

Post by tlenl »

Hi,

as far as i know, actually there is no way to share directly Qnap folder with the VM in "filesystem passthrough" mode.

That would be a very welcomed featured, wich could permit to bypass entirely the TCP/SAMBA/NFS mechanism of sharing folders between Qnap and the VM.

This mechanism as i can see is already implemented in qVM

http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/9p_virtio

So the only missing part in Virtualization Station is the configuration panel and (pheraps) the primitives to enable it.

Hope this will be implemented because i think it's a very basic function of a virtualizer.

Thank you
