Hi Arif,

Welcome to the Community,

Are you talking about auto scaling on VM level or at the vDC level?

It can be done. Not just by vcloud Director but by using some workflows on vCenter orchestrator. vCloud Director plug-in is provided for vCO and vCD can be integrated to orchestrator and the Auto scaling can be configured.

check this link for an example.

That's for vDC scaling. That's why i confirmed whether its for vDC or VM level.
