update-AutomaticLinkedClonePool -Pool_id “Pool1” -MinimumCount 1 -MaximumCount 1 -headroomCount 1

update-AutomaticLinkedClonePool -Pool_id “Pool2” -MinimumCount 1 -MaximumCount 1 -headroomCount 1

As per standard:

4. Update LC pool datastore

update-AutomaticLinkedClonePool -Pool_id “Pool1” -DatastoreSpecs aaa/host/Datastorename

update-AutomaticLinkedClonePool -Pool_id “Pool2” -aaa/host/Datastorename

5. Update Snapshot for LC pool

Update-AutomaticLinkedClonePool -pool_id “Pool1” -parentVMPath /vc/vm/BASE/vm -parentSnapshotPath /3360339A1 -ErrorAction “stop”

6. To do Recompose with new snapshot:

Update-AutomaticLinkedClonePool -pool_id “pool1” -parentVMPath /location of vm -parentSnapshotPath /602G9A1 -ErrorAction “stop”

Get-Desktopvm -pool_id pool1 | Send-LinkedCloneRecompose  -parentVMPath /vm/BASE/vm1 -parentSnapshotPath /vm1 -schedule ((get-date).addminutes(2)) -forceLogoff:$true -stopOnError:$true -ErrorAction “stop”
