Unidentical VM Sizes in a Hostpool
I just don't understand why you want to still have differences between vms in the same host pool. At the end the best way to manage the load is the use of the right Load Balancing algorithm + scaling mechanisms . This will allow you to keep the same experience for any user on any virtual machine . You just need to ensure that you virtual machine size design meet your needs and if not just redeploy a new host pool with new size. Templates should be your friend to make your deployment easy and effective.

Say I am using a host pool of 10 d2sv3 session hosts and later I want to upgrade to higher size. Than I can add new upper/lower size session hosts and put existing session hosts in drain mode and remove existing session hosts when 0 sessions are there.

- ibnmbodji - Thanks a lot for the response. But we can close the thread now as I understood the potential use case of non identical vm sizes support in the same hostpool.
Actually the question was beyond the recommendations. 🙂
