ok, let me try a different tack... if we can't identify anything in ESXi that might interrupt the client's exclusive access to the USB device, is there a way that I can simulate a physical removal (unplugging) of the USB cable from the host machine using esxcli commands? Even if I can simply re-establish connection every so often it would achieve what I need to do. I've looked at restarting the usbarbitrator but that has no effect.
