Lab Manager User's Guide Table 7-1. Default Deployment Settings (Continued) Setting Name Setting Value Host Spanning If the configuration does not use fencing or include a virtual network, Lab Manager can always deploy virtual machines across multiple hosts. If the configuration uses fencing or includes a virtual network, the Host Spanning setting comes from the organization properties. An organization must have an enabled host spanning transport network to enable Host Spanning. User Server Boot Sequence If the configuration properties specify a boot sequence, this option is selected. Otherwise, it is not selected. Power on machines after deployment Selected. Resource Pool Set to Any Available. Deployment Lease Uses the deployment lease set in configuration properties. Undeploy a Configuration Undeploying a configuration unregisters its virtual machines from vCenter. When you undeploy a configuration, you can save or discard its state. Saving the memory state helps when debugging memory‐specific issues and makes virtual machines in the configuration ready for deployment and use almost instantly. If all the virtual machines in the configuration are powered off, you cannot save or discard state, because there is no state information to save or discard. To undeploy a configuration Move the pointer over the configuration name and select Undeploy ‐ Save State or Undeploy ‐ Discard State. Stopping and Starting Configuration Virtual Machines You can stop workspace configurations from running using the suspend and power off operations. Undeploying a configuration also stops it from running. See "Undeploy a Configuration" on page 62 for more information. Suspend a Configuration Suspending a deployed configuration freezes the CPU of the virtual machines, but the virtual machines remain registered with vCenter. To suspend a configuration Move the pointer over the deployed configuration name and select Suspend. Resume Operation of a Suspended Configuration You can reverse a suspended state. To resume operation of a suspended configuration Move the pointer over the deployed configuration name and select Resume. Power Off a Configuration Powering off a deployed configuration turns the virtual machines off. It is the virtual equivalent of powering off physical machines. The virtual machines remain registered with vCenter. To power off a configuration Move the pointer over the deployed configuration name and select Power Off. 62 VMware, Inc.
