Creating Automated Desktop Pools That Contain Full Virtual Machines

With an automated desktop pool that contains full virtual machines, you create a virtual machine template and Horizon 7 uses that template to create virtual machines for each desktop. You can optionally create customization specifications to expedite automated pool deployments.

To create an automated desktop pool, Horizon 7 dynamically provisions machines based on settings that you apply to the pool. Horizon 7 uses a virtual machine template as the basis of the pool. From the template, Horizon 7 creates a new virtual machine in vCenter Server for each desktop.

For more information about the configuration information required for creating and maintaining automated desktop pools that contain full virtual machines, see the Setting Up Virtual Desktops in Horizon 7 document.
