The Virtual Desktop Console shows a status for each virtual desktop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The status helps explain whether the system is being created, ready to use, stopped, cancelled, or waiting for billing action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Common statuses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Provisioning<\/strong>
The virtual desktop is being created or configured. Access may not be ready yet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ready<\/strong>
The virtual desktop is ready to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Stopped<\/strong>
The virtual desktop is powered off. Use Start to turn it back on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Update Billing<\/strong>
The service needs a billing update before future renewals can be handled automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cancels at period end<\/strong>
Renewal has been cancelled, but the service remains available through the paid-through date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cancelled<\/strong>
The service has been cancelled and is no longer renewing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Important notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Power actions such as Start, Stop, Reboot, and Redeploy affect the virtual desktop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Billing actions such as Update Billing or Cancel Service affect the service renewal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are separate actions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
