Determine what you would like the policy to be regarding deleting the virtual machines and saving
persistent disks. For information about persistent disks, see the topics about managing View Composer
persistent disks in the View Administration document.
If you choose to delete the virtual machine, you must choose whether to save any persistent disks. If
you choose to save the disk to a different datastore, verify that you have the name of the datastore and
the path to the folder that will store the persistent disk.

Configuration and navigate to the Add Pool Policy Configuration workflow.
4 Right-click the Add Pool Policy Configuration workflow and select Start workflow.
5 Complete the form that appears and click Submit.
If you choose to save any persistent disks, specify the datastore and the path to the folder that will store
the persistent disk.

If you ever need to remove or update a pool policy, you can run the Remove Pool Policy Configuration
workflow or the Update Pool Policy Configuration workflow.
