# Adding a Resource Pool

When storage is linked, tenant administrators can create a resource pool without needing to specify information about the access nodes.

You can modify the properties of resource pools. Modifying a resource pool might change the properties of previously mapped Office 365 (Exchange Online, OneDrive for Business, SharePoint Online, Teams), Azure AD and Dynamics 365 apps. For each storage pool and solution type, there can be only one resource pool.
