A rebalance can also be performed on an individual desktop. This can be helpful in scenarios where only a small number of desktops need to be rebalanced rather than the entire desktop pool. Additionally, a rebalance can also be used to migrate desktops to different datastores-even ones on a different storage system. The following steps describe how to rebalance a single desktop using the Horizon Administrator console:
- Log in to the Horizon Administrator console using an AD account that has administrative permissions within Horizon.
- Go to Catalog and open the Desktop Pools window within the console.
- In the Desktop Pools window, click on the pool that contains the desktop you wish to rebalance.
- In the window for the desktop pool you selected, click the Inventory tab.
- Click on the linked clone desktop that you wish to recompose. In our example, we will click on the desktop named APPV10-2 to open the APPV10-2 window.
- In the APPV10-2 window, open the View Composer drop-down menu and then click on Rebalance to open the Rebalance window.
- Complete the remaining steps to initiate the rebalance operation.
