Workstation 9.0.2: how connecting USB Device to Remote virtual machine

$

Hello everyone,

 

i've got on a Linux machine a Workstation 9.0.2 running.

Connect to it with an other Workstation 9.0.2 from a Windows machine and manage all the virtual Machines on the Linux Host.

 

Now i want to connect a USB-Device, which is physically connected to the Linux Machine, to a Virtual Machine running also on the Linux Machine.

This i want to do via the Windows Machine to the remote Virtual Machine running on the Linux Host.

 

When i go to "removable Devices" on the virtual Machine, there is no USB-Devicelist shown.

If i do the same on a local virtual Machine USB-Devices are listet.

On the Linux Host itself USB-Devices are correct listet, connected and running.

 

The File "/etc/vmware/usbarb.rules" contains this:

{
  "version": 1,
  "rules": []
}

 

If i select the USB-Controller of a remote virtual Machine there are no Options, only a text is listed which says

"There are no configurable options for USB controllers on this server"

 

I hope there will be a Solution to connect remot USB Devices to a Remote Virtual Machine.

 

Thanks for help.
