This exercise shows you how to entitle users to one desktop pool, such as a session based desktop pool. You can repeat the exercise to entitle users to additional desktop pools.

1. Log in to the View Administrator console, and navigate to Catalog > Desktop Pools to see a list of all your deployed desktop pools and click the desktop pool that you want to entitle.

2. Click the Entitlements tab and then click Add Entitlement.

3. The Add Entitlements dialog box lists the pool's entitled users and groups. Click Add to entitle new users or groups to the desktop pool.

4. In the Find User or Group dialog box, search your domain controller for users or groups to entitle to this desktop pool. You can narrow your query using the drop-down menus to add search terms and modifiers. Click Find.

5. Scroll through the results to select all the users or groups to entitle, and then click OK.

6. Review the summary of who you have selected. You can add more users or groups or remove them from the entitlement list. When you are done, click OK. The users or groups are now entitled to this desktop pool.

7. You can verify the total number of entitlements for the pool in the Entitled column.

Repeat these steps to entitle other users or groups to the rest of your desktop pools or unentitle them. Proceed to the next exercise to entitle users to application pools.
