A configuration is "deployed" if any virtual machine in the configuration is deployed. Deployment leases do not apply to library configurations because you cannot deploy them. Most operations renew a storage lease because Lab Manager identifies the configuration as in use. If an administrator sets a system‐wide lease time, a user without administrator privileges cannot override the value but can extend the lease to any value up to the value set by the administrator. If the administrator changes the value after the initial setting, the user can extend a lease to the original maximum value. Once the user alters the lease time, the lease choices reset up to the latest value determined by the administrator. f Click OK.

to delete the configuration (or just mark it for deletion). The default option for
marking or permanent deletion is preset by an administrator.
A configuration is “deployed” if any virtual machine in the configuration is
deployed. Deployment leases do not apply to library configurations because
you cannot deploy them.
Most operations renew a storage lease because Lab Manager identifies the
configuration as in use.
If an administrator sets a system
wide lease time, a user without
administrator privileges cannot override the value but can extend the lease to
any value up to the value set by the administrator.
If the administrator changes the value after the initial setting, the user can
extend a lease to the original maximum value. Once the user alters the lease
time, the lease choices reset up to the latest value determined by the
administrator.
