Please verify documentation here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/autoscale-scaling-plan., which came with slight delay. When searching the table of contents for autoscale you will find additional articles how to use diagnostics and FAQ

We really need a timeline of this being available in UK South.
Is there any sort of date ?
- Thanks again for the details, not great news indeed!
Slightly off topic, but does that have any impact on customers deploying new resources in UK South then, provisioning new VM's etc...? - Seneca_FriendHi RichSaunds,
It is not necessarily that Autoscale is resource demanding, it is that Autoscale is a microservice within AVD which means that the service in addition to the databases need to be deployed to each region for there to be scaling plan support there. Azure is maxed out in the UK South region and has blocked us from deploying there for a while. Thanks for the update on this, even if this is not the news we hoped or expected!
Are you able to elaborate on the UK South capacity issues please, and why exactly this Scaling Plan functionality for the AVD platform is affected by such a capacity issue? Based on the existing scaling script and logic app method that's available to us already (for scaling AVD platforms), I cant image this new Scaling Plan functionality is that resource demanding on a data centre, surely?!?
- Seneca_FriendHi BradleyGlover93,
No there is no timeline or ETA for scaling plans being available in UK South. Azure is facing capacity issues in UK South that are preventing us from being able to deploy there fully. We will be rolling out scaling plans to more regions in the next month, but UK South will not come for a while.
