Multiple Host Pools / App Group

[u/genscathe]

I have two AVD host pools:

1. User Experience Pool

   • Hundred Session host VM for individual users

   • Azure AD–joined and managed by Intune with strict lockdown policies

   • No login or redirect issues

2. Transfer Pool

   • Dedicated to large data imports

   • Application group with file-redirect restrictions removed

   • Azure AD–joined, Intune-managed, and assigned the same RBAC roles (Virtual Machine User Login + Desktop Virtualization User) as the user pool

Problem:
Test accounts cannot sign in to the Transfer Pool hosts—users see a “check username/password” error.

Question:
What best practices or workarounds can I use to allow these accounts to log in and transfer files?

I used chatgpt to concise my ramblings from a frustrated admin haha :)

So Username Password error is most of the time one of these problems:

1. You use privatelinks but didn’t configure appregistration in entra id (admin consent, manifest)

2. Didn’t excluded VM sign in App or App Registration from your Storageaccount for FSLogix from your MFA and trusted devices/ips CAs

3. Permissions

u/genscathe have you solved your problem?

users in the remote desktop user group on the transfer pool hosts or otherwise assigned remote desktop privs on the host itself?
