How can I assign my render node in the new pool?
I have created two pools 2D and 3D. Now I want to add some render node in 2D and some in 3D pools

Hi!
First of all, to manage farm via GUI (afwatch), it should be in GOD mode:
https://cgru.readthedocs.io/en/latest/a ... watch.html

You can select render nodes and use Pool -> SET button on a left panel.

Also pools are designed to have variable number of renders (you can by a cloud for some time).
So there is a dynamic assignment:
You should edit pool pattern parameter.
For example we have linux renders and a "/lin" pool with a "l.*" pattern.
And if you also have 2d and 3d linux-es, you can create "/lin/2d" and "/lin/3d" pools with a 'lc.*" and "lr.*" patterns.
So you can name 2d render as "lc01", "lc02" and 3d as "lr01", "lr02" and they will be assigned to special pools automatically on register.

You can take a look at our farm:

Hi
Can we add one render node in two different pools?

No.
Pool is not a set or a group, it is like a parent, folder (and there is no sim-links like in a file-system).
