Ensure your review limitations and ensure you have the custom RBAC role set-up :)!

Hi,
This is a nice addition. I see this is based on maxsessionlimit in the host pool, which is a hard limit. With the logic app scaling tool we could specify a session threshold per cpu (soft limit, ie it would still allow more logons) - is there any way to do this in the new scaling plan for AVD?
Thanks,
Adam

The Azure Function (Powershell) is not hard to configure, you must only specify some Parameters.
Its seems that scaling Plan is a nice new Feature, but why they make this with a max session limit at all?
The function do the max. Sessionlimit per Host, this is so much better.
