A virtual machine-based desktop is a desktop that is from an automated desktop pool or a manual desktop pool that contains vCenter Server virtual machines.

Assign a Machine to a User
In a dedicated-assignment pool, you can assign a user to be the owner of the virtual machine that hosts a remote desktop. Only the assigned user can log in and connect to the remote desktop.
Unassign a User from a Dedicated Machine
In a dedicated-assignment pool, you can remove a machine assignment to a user.
Customize Existing Machines in Maintenance Mode
After a desktop pool is created, you can customize, modify, or test individual machines by placing them in maintenance mode. When a machine is in maintenance mode, users cannot access the virtual-machine desktop.
Monitor Virtual-Machine Desktop Status
You can quickly survey the status of virtual-machine desktops in your View deployment by using the View Administrator dashboard. For example, you can display all disconnected virtual machines or virtual machines that are in maintenance mode.
Status of vCenter Server Virtual Machines
Virtual machines that are managed by vCenter Server can be in various states of operation and availability. In Horizon Administrator, you can track the status of machines in the right-hand column of the Machines page.
Delete Virtual-Machine Desktops
When you delete a virtual-machine desktop, users can no longer access the desktop. A virtual-machine desktop is either a vCenter Server virtual machine or an unmanaged virtual machine.
Recover Instant-Clone Desktops
When an instant-clone desktop is in an error state, you have the option to recover it. The desktop is recreated from the current base image.
