Manual Scaling Controls

Scale hosts up or down on demand, no automation rules required.

Manual Scaling Controls let you scale session hosts up or down on demand, directly from the Atlas AVD interface. Perfect for planned events, ad-hoc capacity changes, or environments that prefer human-in-the-loop control before adopting automated scaling.

Key capabilities

  • Scale session hosts out or in from a single control
  • On-demand capacity changes for planned events and maintenance
  • Human-in-the-loop control without automation rules
  • Clear confirmation of the target host count before applying
  • Works alongside automated scaling on higher tiers when you're ready
  • Every manual scaling action captured in the timeline for audit
