When an autoscaling event is triggered, Abiquo will search for a scaling rule that is valid for the specific time range, or for a default rule. Abiquo will create or delete/undeploy the number of virtual machines for the scaling operation, then wait for the cooldown period before accepting another scaling request. Scaling operations are managed by action plans and subject to all standard Abiquo constraints, such as privileges and allocation limits. In this initial release, Abiquo selects the virtual machines to delete or undeploy using first in, first out (FIFO), but in future releases the administrator will be able to select the scale in policy, from last in, first out (LIFO) or FIFO. When scaling out, Abiquo will always create new clones instead of deploying virtual machines that are undeployed, for example, machines that were manually undeployed during maintenance.

Delete a scaling group
...
If When you delete a scaling group, Abiquo will not destroy the virtual machines. It will place all the virtual machines in the virtual appliance as regular virtual machines and the scaling group constraints will no longer exist.
To delete a scaling group, first put it into maintenance mode, then click the delete button.
