Remarks
Resource Governor workload groups and Resource Governor resource pools have a many-to-one mapping. As a result, many of the resource pool statistics are derived from the workload group statistics.
This dynamic management view shows the in-memory configuration. To see the stored configuration metadata, use the sys.resource_governor_resource_pools catalog view.
Permissions
Requires VIEW SERVER STATE permission.
