Understanding Server Pools
In ASM, a Server Pool is a set of servers grouped for specific use-cases such as business units or workload
purposes. An administrator can also specify a set of users who can access these server pools.
The Server Pools tab lists the existing server pools and enables you to perform the following actions:
• Create or edit server pools
• Delete existing server pools
Click a server pool from the list to view detailed information in the following tabs:
• Servers – Lists the number of servers associated with the server pool.
• Users – Lists the number of users who has the access rights to the server pool.
