TimlowennaWere these hosts deployed from an image? If so and the image has been kept up-to-date, it would be much simpler to just deploy new hosts to the new host pool using the image.
If for whatever reason you don't have an image, during a maintenance window, you can remove a host from the pool and then sysprep this VM and capture a new image. You can then use this image to deploy hosts to the new pool (and to redeploy the host you removed from the current pool).
