In addition to Reboot Server options in the RD Session Hosts scheduler, it would be nice if there was also an option for Shutting down the server, with the same capabilities of the Reboot option.
The case scenario we are looking at is that we are running a farm of servers in the cloud. Over night and weekends however, we do not need so many RD Session Hosts running, so we'd like to start draining them of their users part way through the day, and then shut them off once there are no more active users. An auto-on job would be set up in the cloud portal to automatically turn them back on at a preset time, where they would automatically re-join the farm.
