   You manage a pooled Azure Virtual Desktop host pool with 50 session hosts. You need to optimize costs by reducing the number of running hosts during off-peak hours. You have enabled autoscaling with a schedule that deallocates hosts during off-peak. However, you notice that some users are still connected to sessions on hosts that are being deallocated, causing their sessions to be disconnected. What should you do to prevent this?

   • AChange the load balancing algorithm to 'Breadth-first' to distribute sessions evenly and reduce the chance of deallocation.
   • BConfigure the autoscaling schedule to use a 'drain mode' for hosts before deallocating them.
   • CSet the minimum host count to 0 during off-peak to ensure all hosts are deallocated.
   • DDisable autoscaling and manually deallocate hosts after verifying no active sessions.

   You manage a pooled Azure Virtual Desktop host pool with 100 session hosts. Users report intermittent performance issues during the first hour of the workday. You have enabled autoscaling with a schedule that sets the minimum host count to 20 and maximum to 100. You notice that during the first hour, the autoscaling feature is deallocating hosts even though users are logging in. You need to ensure that hosts are not deallocated while users are actively connecting. What should you do?

   • AChange the load balancing algorithm to 'Depth-first' to keep users on fewer hosts.
   • BAdjust the autoscaling schedule's ramp-up period to start earlier and set a higher minimum host count during that period.
   • CSet the maximum session limit to a higher value to reduce the number of hosts needed.
   • DDisable autoscaling and manually manage the host pool capacity.
