ABSTRACT:
The present invention discloses dynamically adding virtual devices to a virtual computing environment. The system described in the invention includes a virtualized computing system with a manifest, which further includes device lists and an external device directory, which provides users of the virtualized computing system with a directory for adding software plug-ins that contain specifications needed to add virtual devices to the virtual computing environment. Certain embodiments are specifically directed to providing a method of adding and configuring virtual devices. Certain embodiments are specifically directed to providing a method of operating a virtualized computing system wherein the host operating system and the virtual devices progress through a series of states, such as: initializing, powering up, loading a stored state, operating in normal state, saving state for future restoration, powering down, and tearing down and turning off.
