I would like to have a direct USB to USB connection, which I believe can be done if you can trick the field device into thinking a USB connection to the network machine (over VLAN/IP USB Hub/some sort of networked hardware) is a flash drive. The USB connection is the ONLY method of data transfer.
Operator inserts USB into field device and executes a local export function.Operator executes operation on field device and generates local data that is stored on the field device.
Upon successful vmdk file creation, you will see an output like below: RAW host disk access VMDK file /home/sk/usb.vmdk created successfully.I am trying to automate the below process:
The above command will create a new vmdk file named "usb.vmdk" in your $HOME directory. In that case, use the following command to create vmdk file: $ sudo VBoxManage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename ~/usb.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sdc In some Linux distros, the vboxmanage command is case-sensitive. Now, open your Terminal and run any one of the following commands to create a vmdk file: $ sudo vboxmanage internalcommands createrawvmdk -filename ~/usb.vmdk -rawdisk /dev/sdc I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytesĪs you can see, my USB drive name is /dev/sdc. Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I am going to use " fdisk" command to find my USB drive details: $ sudo fdisk -lĭisk /dev/sdc: 14.54 GiB, 15597568000 bytes, 30464000 sectors How To Find Hard Disk Drive Details In Linux.Refer the following guide to learn different ways to find disk drive details in Linux. Heads Up: For those wondering, a vmdk file is nothing but a virtual disk file which contains all the information of a virtual machine.įirst, you need to find your USB drive name.
