Virtual appliance states
The virtual appliance states are calculated from the VM states as described below. The state name in the table has the color code for the Virtual appliance in each state.
State | Description |
---|---|
EMPTY | There are no VMs in the virtual appliance |
DEPLOYED | All of the VMs are not in the Undeployed state. |
NOT DEPLOYED | All the VMs are in the Undeployed state. |
partially deployed | This state occurs when a virtual appliance that is in the Deployed state is modified. |
LOCKED | One or more of the VMs is in the Locked state and none is in the Unknown state. |
UNKNOWN | Some or all of the VMs are in the Unknown state. |
Some of these states are shown in the virtual appliances lists in following screenshot.
Deployed state and powered off VMs
The fact that all the VMs in a virtual appliance are powered off does not imply that the virtual appliance is undeployed.
A deployed virtual appliance is always consuming resources because the VMs exist in the cloud nodes. An undeployed virtual appliance is not consuming resources.
In Microsoft Azure a deployed VM in the "Off - deallocated" state is not consuming cloud resources
