Chapter 12 Registering Resources to the Global Pool

This chapter explains the registration of resources to resource pools.

When creating a cloning image common to tenants, an L-Server for the infrastructure administrator must be created.

To create an L-Server for the infrastructure administrator, resources must be registered to the global pool.

The resources that are required to be registered to the resource pool differ depending on the type of L-Server.
