Abstract
Universal serial bus (USB) devices may be redirected to a server to create USB virtual devices. Each of the USB devices to be redirected may have one or more partitions but each partition may not be suitable for redirection. A user may select one or more partitions for redirection. The server may read the selected partitions. The server will create virtual volumes for only the selected partitions and will mount a file system for each of the selected partitions only.
