Description Thomas Antony 2007-06-21 17:00:12 UTC 
Please add a option to virt-manager for add or remove devices like a cdrom, any
PCI or PCIe card or usb devices for each domain.
Comment 1 Daniel Berrangé 2007-06-21 17:11:02 UTC 
It is already possible to add/remove  harddisks and network devices.   CDROMs /
Floppy should be possible to add with very little work.

Adding  USB or Sound devices requires further support in libvirt, which is being
tracked/worked on upstream.

PCI device assignment is Xen specific capability that we don't plan to support
at this time - particularly since it is utterly insecure with all current hardware.
