How to add a new host to WVD hostpool?
I've successfully built two 2 hostpools for testing purposes -- one for shared and one for personalized. The shared one consists of 1 D8s VM and the personal one consists of 5 individual smaller D2s VMs. Now, I need to test the scenarios with additional users, but I can't find any resources to scale out, whether using the portal or using the RDS PS module. Does anyone know how to add additional hosts to a hostpool? I have a "gold image" built already, which can be used to spin up additional VMs manually, but how to add them to a pool?

Scroll down to the section create virtual machines for the host pool.- I also followed the documentation on https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/create-host-pools-powershell and it works perfect!
EvdL99 I tryed it, too. Didn't work...
The steps i've made are:
- Create a VM with the same image as the other VM
- Join VM to Domain
- Installed WVDA and entered token from Export-RdsRegistrationInfo
- Installed WVDABootloader
When i try to login via RD-App (original VM off) it says "no available resources". Shouldn't the VM be addet to the AvailabilityGroup in the ResourceGroup or at least the loadbalancer somehow?

ahesterTX : We understand that it's not quite as simple today, so thanks for testing and the feedback. We're working on documenting this so it's easier to add VMs later to a host pool.
