Abstract
A virtualization manager receives a request to disconnect a virtual device associated with a virtual machine. The virtualization manager then determines a usage state of the virtual device in view of collected usage statistics for the virtual device. Responsive to determining that the determined usage state of the virtual device indicates that the virtual device is in use, the virtualization manager requests confirmation for disconnecting the virtual device from the virtual machine.
