Create Resource Pools

You use resource pools to compartmentalize all resources in a cluster.
After you order an SDDC using the
VMware Cloud on Dell
portal, two resource pools are available:
  • Management Resource Pool: Contains
    vCenter Server
    and NSX, which VMware manages.
  • Compute Resource Pool: You create child resource pools and manage them.
    When deploying both management and user resources in the same SDDC, create the following child resource pools within the compute resource pool to manage your Horizon deployments:
    • Management resource pool: Manages Horizon deployments and connection servers.
    • User resource pool: Horizon users to manage the desktop pools and published applications.
  1. Use the
    vSphere
    Web Client to log in to a
    instance.
  2. Expand
    SDDC Datacenter
    , right-click
    Compute-ResourcePool
    , and select
    New Resource Pool
    .
  3. Create management and user resource pools.
    For example, create the management and user resource pools, Horizon Management Resource Pool and Horizon User Resource Pool, respectively.
  4. Enter other required information and click
    OK
    .
The resource pools you created are listed under
SDDC Datacenter
Compute-ResourcePool
.
