9 Floating vs Dedicated Management
If your cluster is running more than 1000 desktops or contains 10 or more nodes, we recommend that the
management VMs reside on dedicated hosts (Dedicated Management model). For environments smaller
than this, the management VMs will be spread evenly across the cluster nodes (Floating Management
model). For example, if your cluster consists of three Hyper-V nodes, two of the management VMs will be
configured to run on each node.
To configure the management VMs in a Floating Management model when using Hyper-V as the
hypervisor:
1. In Failover Cluster Manager, click Roles in the left pane, right-click the broker VM, and then
select Properties.
2. Click to select the first node as the Preferred Owner and select High as the priority from the
Priority drop-down menu. Click OK.
3. Right-click the broker VM again and select Move  Quick Migration  Select Node. Click the
name of the first node to select and click OK.
