When adding session hosts to a pool you declare a prefix and the template will append an incrementing number to the end. but this number is not a consistent length due to the lack of leading zeros. and in large host pool, this causes the hosts to not sort properly
| Current | Example of Bad Sort | Desired |
| Test-VM-1 | Test-VM-1 | Test-VM-001 |
| Test-VM-2 | Test-VM-10 | Test-VM-002 |
| Test-VM-3 | Test-VM-11 | Test-VM-003 |
| Test-VM-4 | Test-VM-12 | Test-VM-004 |
| Test-VM-5 | Test-VM-2 | Test-VM-005 |
| Test-VM-6 | Test-VM-3 | Test-VM-006 |
| Test-VM-7 | Test-VM-4 | Test-VM-007 |
| Test-VM-8 | Test-VM-5 | Test-VM-008 |
| Test-VM-9 | Test-VM-6 | Test-VM-009 |
| Test-VM-10 | Test-VM-7 | Test-VM-010 |
| Test-VM-11 | Test-VM-8 | Test-VM-011 |
| Test-VM-12 | Test-VM-9 | Test-VM-012 |

This is a good idea that I would like to see in AVD.
TaniaMariscalStatus changed:NewtoClosedI agree, this is annoying. I have to use this really useful Sort-STNumerical PowerShell function to get the desired effect.
