8.2.1. Assigning Users to a Desktop Pool
The system administrator allocates users to a desktop pool. Once a user logs on to a desktop that belongs to a pool, the desktop belongs to that user until it is released according to the pool type. A virtual desktop can only be used by a single user at a time.
When the user finishes working on a desktop, the desktop image reverts to the snapshot of its state before it was taken from the pool (the original “base image”), and is then available for use by any other user in the pool.
