No, removing Host1 from the session host list will not meet the goal. This action would disconnect all active user sessions on Host1, which is not what you want. To prevent new user sessions from being directed to Host1 without disconnecting active user sessions, you should change the Drain mode of Host1. This ensures that no new sessions are assigned to Host1 while allowing existing sessions to continue until they are naturally disconnected.

Selected Answer: B

The answer is correct: (B) Using this option, in addition to disconnecting active sessions, the Host will be permanently removed from the Pool. The VM will not be deleted, but it cannot be added to the Pool again. Laboratory tested. This is the message that is displayed when using this option: "This action will remove the session host 'Host1'. All user sessions will be logged off. Associated resources (disks, virtual machines, etc.) will not be removed and can be removed manually. This operation cannot be undone and the deleted session host will not be recoverable. Do you want to continue?"

Definitely B - No When removing a session host from the pool an alert is displayed. This action will remove the session host 'sh01'. All users will be logged off.

I choose B. Condition is "without disconnecting avtive user sessions". If removeing host from pool can fulfill this condition, A is acceptable.

answer is B, please don't anyhow say is it A. requirement - without disconnecting active user sessions.. This means users are still using. Remove HOST1 from session host list means terminate the whole HOST.

Although a silly approach, removing the session host from the host pool definitely will prevent new user sessions. So it meets the goal. It does not mention that we should choose the least effort. :)) I would go for Yes.

Correct , best way to proceed is to set SH to Drain Mode.
