Desktop Pool - auto shutdown\turn off

[HappyBandito]

Hi All,

I know there is a globally assigned time out value but can you set one for individual desktop pools?

We would like it, ideally, after hours the VDI will turn off.  I would be happy after a certain amount of time too, but they key thing is to only apply it to a certain desktop pool.  Is this possible?

TIA

Not in Horizon, there is a fling that can do it, but its only listed as working with 7.8

Horizon Toolbox | VMware Flings

If you change the power policy on horizon to "Take no power action" you can do a powershell script to shut them down on a schedule.

Thanks!  I was hoping of avoiding any kind of scripting solution.
