In this section, we will create a dedicated assignment persistent linked clone Horizon desktop pool.

Not all of the values in the following example command are mandatory; the FolderId, DataDiskLetter, DataDiskSize, TempDiskSize, VmFolderPath, and NetworkLabelConfigFile values can all be omitted and the Horizon defaults will be used instead. The remaining values are all required in order to create a linked clone pool using the Add-AutomaticLinkedClonePool PowerCLI command:

Get-ViewVC -serverName “Vc-01.vjason.local“ | Get-ComposerDomain -domain “vjason.local“ -username “vjasonsvc-composer“ | Add-AutomaticLinkedClonePool -Pool_id “EngineeringLC1“ –DisplayName “Engineering Desktops“ -NamePrefix “EngineeringLC{n:fixed=4}“ -VmFolderPath “/RTP/vm/Desktops“ -ResourcePoolPath “/RTP/host/HOR-Cluster1/Resources“ -ParentVmPath “/RTP/vm/Master/Win10x32-LC“ -ParentSnapshotPath “/Base“ -DatastoreSpecs “[Aggressive,OS]/RTP/host/HOR-Cluster1/DS1;[Aggressive,data]/RTP/host/HOR-Cluster1/DS2;[Aggressive,replica]/RTP/host/HOR-Cluster1/DS3“ -MaximumCount 100 -MinProvisionedDesktops 25 -HeadroomCount 90 -MinimumCount 100 -DataDiskLetter D -DataDiskSize 1536 -TempDiskSize 3072 -FolderId “Engineering“ -NetworkLabelConfigFile “d:LCConfigFile“
