Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD)

Hi,   ...You created a host pool in WVD. Set a default OS and a VM size. Created some session hosts. Fine... But what if you now want to create new hosts with a different VM size? You can't as the size is fixed in the Azure Portal:     This PShell-one-liner cancels this fixation and you are free to choose new when adding session hosts: - thx to the community to pointing this out -   Update-AzWvdHostPool -Name myhostpool-1 -ResourceGroupName WVDRG -VMTemplate $null   Done! (Note: It is maybe not whise to mix settings so that hosts run with different sizes or templates.)     Optional: If you need to set a new 'fixture' you can try the following:   #Get Hostpool to change $resource = Get-AzResource -ResourceType 'Microsoft.DesktopVirtualization/hostpools' | Out-GridView -OutputMode Single -Title 'Select the HP to change' $myHP = Get-AzWvdHostPool -Name $($resource.Name) -ResourceGroupName $($resource.ResourceGroupName) #modify settings using the correct sizings e.g. $alternativevmtemplatesize = @{ domain = 'mywvd.net' galleryImageOffer = 'Windows-10' galleryImagePublisher = 'MicrosoftWindowsDesktop' galleryImageSKU = '20h2-evd' imageType = 'Gallery' imageUri = $null customImageId = $null namePrefix = 'HP1' osDiskType = 'StandardSSD_LRS' useManagedDisks = $true vmSize = @{id='Standard_F2s_v2'; cores=2; ram=4} galleryItemId = 'Microsoftwindowsdesktop.windows-1020h2-evd' } Update-AzWvdHostPool -Name $($myHP.Name) -VMTemplate $($alternativevmtemplatesize | ConvertTo-Json) -ResourceGroupName $($resource.ResourceGroupName) #creating a new session host vm should now display the correct sizings.     result:   happy testing! cheers, Bernhard ...

Hi,   sorry für die Verspätung. Habe eben den Namenswechsel von WVD zu AVD (vom 7. Juni) hier im Community Blog nachvollzogen. (siehe Azure Virtual Desktop: The flexible cloud VDI platform for the hybrid workplace | Azure Blog and Updates | Microsoft Azure) Einhergehend habe ich die vanity URLs dazu angepasst. D.h. der Shortlink hierher (evtl. für die eigene Email Signatur) ist: https://aka.ms/avdcomm  (derzeit noch aktiv https://aka.ms/wvdcomm - bitte nicht mehr verwenden)   Grüße, Bernhard ... View more
