Exclude Session Host VMs from Auto-scale During Power On/Off

Nerdio Manager allows you to disable auto-scale on a selected session host VM for a specified number of hours when manually powering the session host VM on or off.

In addition, when starting session host VMs on a schedule to apply updates, auto-scale does not automatically stop them until after the number of specified hours elapses. See Power On a Host Pool and Power Off a Host Pool for details.

To exclude Session Host VMs from auto-scale during power on/off:

1. Locate the session host VM that you wish to power on or off.

2. For a Power On request:

   • Select the option Restrict scale in for (hours).

   • Type the number of hours for the auto-scale restriction.

     Note: After session host VM is powered on, auto-scale does not scale it in for the specified number of hours.

3. For a Power Off request:

   • Select the option Restrict autoscale operations for (hours).

   • Type the number of hours for the auto-scale restriction.

     Note: After session host VM is powered off, auto-scale does not scale it in or out for the specified number of hours.
