Position: Named
Default value: None
Required: False
Accept pipeline input: False
Accept wildcard characters: False

-SettlementPeriodBeforeUse

Idle period before a machine can be selected to host a new session after registration or the end of a previous session.

-UseVerticalScaling

Determines whether to use vertical scaling when considering RDS machines in the desktop group for launches.

Type: Guid
Position: Named
Default value: None
Required: False
