    Azure Virtual Desktop also uses virtual machines in Azure. Depending on the Azure Virtual Desktop deployment, a Windows 10/11 multisession image is used. In an Azure Virtual Desktop infrastructure, we speak of sessionhosts which is nothing more than a virtual machine. Does this help? Greetings.

      Is it possible to add the Azure Virtual Machines to Host Pool so that Start on Connect functionality can be used?
      Thanks.
