Configuring Service Resource Pools

Reservation Manager uses resource pools when provisioning services.

When provisioning a service from the CA Server Automation interface, the following default OnDemand Resources pools are used.

OnDemand Resources

A resource pool containing virtual resources. Resources are automatically added to this pool when the Virtual Center is configured for CA Server Automation usage.

By default, the Service Administrators organization unit has access to this pool. The administrator can remove resources from this pool and can modify the access policy as needed.

The default resource pools are automatically available in Reservation Manager. You can create additional resource pools in Reservation Manager with customized services and user access to meet your needs.

The end user must have access to at least one resource pool to make a service reservation. Org unit membership determines user access to resource pools.
