AVD Host pool location update

Copper Contributor

While creating the Host pool there are 2 places where we need to select the Location.

first in the Basic details and second in the virtual machine.

While checking in project details location there are less number of Location, compare to Virtual machine location.

1)So now I want to deploy the host pool in south east Asia but I do not find this location in Basic details.

2)Could you please explain the reason why South east Location details are not available in Basic details tab.

3)What is the difference between Basic details Location and Virtual machine location tab.

4)If we use the available location "West Europe" in the basic details and Virtual Machine Location details as "South East Asia". How the connectivity is established.

5)Continue of the above point, will there be any latency as we are choosing the different locations as said the south east asia is not available.

Kindly assist.

Hi,
The first location is the location for the hostpool meaning the metadata of the hostpool and workspace, app groups.
The second location is the location of your virtual machines. These can be in a different location than the hostpool.
Use this link to know in wich locations the metadata can be stored. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/data-locations
