- For a host pool using standard management, you can create new virtual machines (VMs) to use as session hosts and add them to a host pool natively by using the Azure Virtual Desktop service in the Azure portal. Alternatively, you can create VMs outside the Azure Virtual Desktop service, such as using an automated pipeline, the Azure CLI, or Azure PowerShell, and then add them as session hosts to a host pool separately.

For Azure Stack HCI, you can create new VMs to use as session hosts and add them to a host pool natively by using the Azure Virtual Desktop service in the Azure portal. If you want to create the VMs outside the Azure Virtual Desktop service, follow the steps in [Create Azure Arc virtual machines on Azure Stack HCI](/azure-stack/hci/manage/create-arc-virtual-machines), and then add the VMs as session hosts to a host pool separately.

- If you have existing session hosts in the host pool, make a note of the virtual machine size, the image, and name prefix that you used. All session hosts in a host pool should have the same configuration, including the same identity provider. For example, a host pool shouldn't contain some session hosts joined to Microsoft Entra ID and some session hosts joined to an Active Directory domain.
