You have two types of dedicated machines with MCS - thin clones and full clones. Thin clone works exactly as pooled VM, just leaf disk is persistent. Typically I would either recommend full clones or just regular persistent VMs.

Thanks Martin, So you mean we can deploy 1:1 or persistent VMs with MCS on dedicated host ? Or ,we can use MCS on shared hosts? Thanks

MCS can be used both for client (single user) or server OS (multi user). In both cases, it can be either persistent or non-persistent (on server OS, only non-persistent is available in UI, you have to user PowerShell). There are two types of persistent VMs you can deploy with MCS - you can find more details in this blog post about full clones with MCS: https://www.citrix.com/blogs/2016/10/12/xenapp-and-xendesktop-7-11-mcs-full-clone-support/

Thanks Martin, I know MCS can be used either persistent or non-persistent. What I wanna know is which delivery option is available on a dedicated host. I thought MCS could not be used on a dedicated host instead we had to deploy vdi without MCS and register them manually. Am I wrong? I have checked edocs,techzones but could not find right information. Thanks,

Persistent means that machine state can survive reboot. Dedicated means that it's assigned to specific user. Technically speaking, MCS allows you to create any combination of these two - you can have non-persistent dedicated or persistent random, however some of these advanced options are available only through PowerShell.

OK,Final Question. So we can use MCS on both shared hosts an a dedicated host?(I know We can not use PVS on public cloud.)

Yes, that is right, MCS can be used on both

Oops! I forgot mentioning win10 vdi with MCS on dedicated host of AWS. So we can use MCS on both shared hosts an a dedicated host of AWS?(I know We can not use PVS on public cloud.) That is a core point I wanted to make it clear. Thanks,
