Create a device pool with a unique name and add Unattended Bot Runners to the device pool.

先决条件

Ensure that you have one of the following roles to view the Device Pools tab:
- Device pool owner
- Device pool admin
Ensure that you have a role with Create device pools permission to create a device pool.
注： A Control Room administrator without device pool admin rights cannot view or create a device pool.
To add a device in the device pool, you must install it as a system-wide device (Bot Agent).
After you add the device, you cannot add the same device to another device pool.

You can add only those Unattended Bot Runners that are not part of any other pool.
限制： Unattended Bot Runners that are a part of other device pools are disabled for selection.
You can use the Scheduled automations and Run with Queue automations options to run bots on that device.
You can add Control Room user roles as consumers. Only users with these roles can use the pool for any automation.
You can select only those devices with the Bot Runner installed at the system wide.
If the devices in a device pool are more than the number of work items added to a queue, multiple entries equal to the number of devices are shown in the Control Room In-progress activity and Historical pages. For details, refer to the View queue details page on the actual user device on which the workload automation is deployed.
