Can someone please confirm you can create multiple server pools of the same servers.

Why would one want to do that?

Yes, you can have same servers part of separate server pools, however once server1 in pool1 is assigned then it can't be used again when assigning service profiles. This is done through a "Qualification" process.

Why you might do this?  I'm taking this right from the configuration guide..

A server pool contains a set of servers. These  servers typically share the same characteristics. Those characteristics  can be their location in the chassis, or an attribute such as server  type, amount of memory, local storage, type of CPU, or  local drive  configuration. You can manually assign a server to a server pool, or use  server pool policies and server pool policy qualifications to automate  the assignment.

If your system implements multi-tenancy through organizations, you  can designate one or more server pools to be used by a specific  organization. For example, a pool that includes all servers with two  CPUs could be assigned to the Marketing  organization, while all servers  with 64 GB memory could be assigned to the Finance organization.
