Setting Availability Schedules

There are two types of schedules:

• Absolute Schedule

  Sets the lifetime of the desktop pool with a designated start and stop time. This could be used for a short, live event, such as the duration of a show.

  To set an absolute schedule, use the Pool Start Time and Pool Stop Time desktop pool parameters.

• Periodic Schedule

  Sets a reoccurring schedule to control access to the desktop pool and resources. This could be used to reduce resource usage by stopping the desktop pool during non-working hours. For example, Monday through Friday, start the desktop pool at 7am and stop it at 6pm.

  To set a periodic schedule, use the Regular Schedule Start Time and Regular Schedule Stop Time desktop pool parameters.
