Azure Virtual Desktop

Hi there, the automatic shutdown is not instantly made, there can be a time difference for many reason. However, normally if you check the UI in operation to shutdown the vm after usage, it will shutdown by itself but there can be a time variation. You can also manually do it from different command center, shell or Admin center for example:

If you are the admin, you can overseas the operation from Admin center, or from the terminal and you should get a faster response time if you manually do it.

Still, the allocation for each resource are still "live" even if the vm is not running. 

Best regards.
