Creating resource pools

In an on-premises hybrid cloud environment, it is common to have different servers segregated as per department, location, areas, or even tenant basis, as service providers would say.

To aggregate resources and make them easier to be allocated and metered, Windows 2012 Hyper-V introduced resource pools.
