Creating a resource pool when using multiple XenServers

If you are using multiple XenServers, create a resource pool as part of the XenDesktop environment where all of your desktop virtual machines reside.

1.From the XenCenter management client, select your HP integrated XenServer host, and then from the toolbar select New Pool. The New Pool dialog appears.

2.Give your new pool a name and description and then click Next. The master server dialog appears.

3.Select a master server for your pool. If you only have one server, that is the only server listed. You can include only servers with identical hardware configurations in any one pool.

Installation media

After you have downloaded and extracted the installation media for your version of HP Virtual Desktop Infrastructure with XenDesktop (Standard, Advanced, or Enterprise), make the installation media available for installation to your selected server. You can burn the .ISO images to a blank CD, or use XenCenter to present the .ISO directly to the virtual machines as virtual media to complete your installation.

•If you burn the .ISO images to blank CDs, use the CD imaging software that came with your writable CD drive.
