Gets the number of idle virtual desktops on hosts.

Syntax

Get-RDVirtualDesktopIdleCount
   [[-HostServer] <String[]>]
   [-ConnectionBroker <String>]
   [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The Get-RDVirtualDesktopIdleCount cmdlet gets the number of idle virtual desktops on one or more hosts. This cmdlet retruns a value that represents the number of idle virtual desktops from every pool.

An idle virtual desktop is a virtual machine that is in a running state and there is no user logged on to it. Idle virtual desktops continue to run even if you configured the pool so that the server saves a virtual desktop that is not in use.

Examples

Example 1: Count idle virtual desktops on hosts

PS C:\>Get-RDVirtualDesktopIdleCount -HostServer @("rdvh-1.contoso.com","rdvh-2.contoso.com") -ConnectionBroker "rdcb.contoso.com"

This command gets the number of idle virtual desktops associated with the connection broker named "rdcb.contoso.com" on the host servers named "rdvh-1.contoso.com" and "rdvh-2.contoso.com".
