Managing Unallocated Server Farms In A Desktop Virtualization System
First Claim
1. A server farm management device for a desktop virtualization system, comprising:
- a processor; and
memory storing computer readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, configure the server farm management device to;
retrieve a first threshold of unallocated server farms for the desktop virtualization system;
determine a current number of unallocated server farms in the desktop virtualization system;
compare the first threshold of unallocated server farms to the current number of unallocated server farms; and
based on the comparison, create one or more unallocated server farms in the desktop virtualization system.

Abstract
Methods and systems for managing the allocated and unallocated server farms in a desktop virtualization system are provided herein. A server farm management device may store and maintain one or more unallocated server farm thresholds for the desktop virtualization system. The current number of unallocated server farms may be determined in response to a trigger or according to a predetermined schedule. When the number of unallocated server farms falls below a threshold, one or more new unallocated server farms may be created using the available servers in the desktop virtualization system. Thresholds may relate to overall number of unallocated server farms in the desktop virtualization system, as well as to the numbers of unallocated server farms of certain types or having certain characteristics.
