| Enable Provisioning | You can enable or virtual machine provisioning in the desktop pool. When you deactivate provisioning in the desktop pool, Horizon 8 stops provisioning new virtual machines for the desktop pool. After you deactivate provisioning, you can enable provisioning again. Before you change a desktop pool's configuration, you can deactivate provisioning to ensure that no new machines are created with the old configuration. You can also deactivate provisioning to prevent Horizon 8 from using additional storage when a pool is close to filling up the available space. When you create a desktop pool and deactivate this option, Horizon 8 creates a desktop pool without any virtual machines. If you edit a desktop pool and deactivate provisioning, Horizon 8 does not allow any new virtual machines to be provisioned in this desktop pool. End users can still connect to existing virtual machines. | ||
