A method, article of manufacture, and apparatus for managing stateless processes is disclosed. In some embodiments, a file system view request is sent to a process manager. A check is then made to ensure that a connection to the requested file system is available. A stateless process to interact with the file system is created and a stateless process to display the file system is also created. A plurality of operational requests to interact with the file system is sent to the process manager. For each operational request, a check is made to ensure that the request is valid. The valid requests are then performed. In some embodiments, software components are removed from the file system. In some embodiments, software components are added to the file system.
