Now that you have prepared a number of desktop images in the previous chapter, the next step is to configure desktop pools that will deliver these desktops to the end users, and so, in this chapter, we will look at how to create and manage desktop pools within Horizon View.
To recap, desktop pools are collections of one or more virtual desktop machines that have similar attributes. By this, we mean that they have the same operating system versions, applications, memory, CPU, or other configuration.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Automated desktop pools
- Creating a manual desktop pool
- Managing Linked Clone desktop pools
- Reviewing the infrastructure post-deployment
