Pods in Microsoft Azure - Creating Farms with Managed Images

The work flow for creating a farm with managed images is similar to the procedure for single-pod images with some minor variations.

To create a farm with an image managed by the Horizon Image Management Service, you follow the steps in Horizon Cloud Pods - Create a Farm with the following additional actions.

• In the Desktops step of the wizard, you must activate an additional option called Use Multi-Pod Images.
• When Use Multi-Pod Images is activated, you are required to select the multi-pod image you wish to use along with the associated marker.
• Also, only those multi-pod images which are in a successful published state are available for selection.

Note: When you create a VDI multi-cloud assignment with a managed image, you cannot edit that assignment to use single-pod images. If, however, you created an assignment with single-pod images, you can edit it to use a multi-pod image by following the usual edit work flow, activating the Use Multi-Pod Images option in the Desktops step, and selecting a multi-pod image.
