Abstract
Examples described herein provide for hardware interface services in virtualized systems. The hardware interface services may receive a vendor-agnostic command to control a particular hardware component. The particular hardware component may be identified, for example, by its location (e.g., physical and/or logical location or other identification) in the virtualized system. The hardware interface services described herein may identify a hardware component type (e.g., vendor, serial number, model number, etc.) based on the location provided. The hardware interface services may translate the vendor-agnostic command to a command specific for the identified hardware component.
