Configuring Server Pools
Server Pools
A server pool contains a set of servers. These servers typically share the same characteristics. Those
characteristics can be their location in the chassis, or an attribute such as server type, amount of memory,
local storage, type of CPU, or local drive configuration. You can manually assign a server to a server pool,
or use server pool policies and server pool policy qualifications to automate the assignment.
If your system implements multi-tenancy through organizations, you can designate one or more server pools
to be used by a specific organization. For example, a pool that includes all servers with two CPUs could be
assigned to the Marketing organization, while all servers with 64 GB memory could be assigned to the Finance
organization.
A server pool can include servers from any chassis in the system. A given server can belong to multiple server
pools.
Creating a Server Pool
Procedure
Step 1
In the Navigation pane, click the Servers tab.
Step 2
On the Servers tab, expand Servers > Pools.
Step 3
Expand the node for the organization where you want to create the pool.
If the system does not include multitenancy, expand the root node.
