Horizon 8 (2212) Pool Configuration Issues

Currently migrating to a Horizon 8 environment from a Horizon 7 environment that utilized full linked clones.

This VDI environment is Windows 10 based desktops (soon to add Windows 11)

We have a requirement for several dedicated-assignment pools and a couple of floating-assignment pools.  We use Ivanti for patching and we treat our VDI environment similarly to physical desktops due to system uniqueness, scanning, and potential for forensics.

I have successfully created an Instant Clone pool for dedicated users.  Thus far, these are working well.

What I am struggling with, is how to create a floating assignment pool of persistent workstations.  I have tried full clones from a template but they do not join the domain.  The same base image will create a snapshot-based pool for dedicated Instant Clone workstations, which properly join the domain.

The goal is a floating-assignment pool of persistent desktops.  Is this possible with Horizon 8?
