In this section, we will review several different commands that can be used to manage Horizon Client entitlements and sessions.
Entitling is the act of granting AD users, or groups, access to the Horizon pools. In this section we will review how to entitle individual users as well as AD security groups:
The following
Add-PoolEntitlementcommand will entitle theEngineering_Horizon_Usersgroup to theEngineeringLC1desktop pool:
Add-PoolEntitlement -Pool_id EngineeringLC1 -sid (Get-User -Name "Engineering_Horizon_Users").sid
To entitle individual users, simply provide the first and last name of the user:
Add-PoolEntitlement -Pool_id EngineeringLC1 -sid (Get-User -Name "Charles Xavier").sid
The Get-User command accepts wildcards, but be careful when using them, as the wrong user might be returned. If in doubt, use the Get-User command by itself to verify that you are selecting the correct user.
