You can edit the settings of a Databricks Pool by using the <A href="https://docs.databricks.com/dev-tools/api/latest/instance-pools.html#edit" alt="https://docs.databricks.com/dev-tools/api/latest/instance-pools.html#edit" target="_blank">Instance Pool Edit endpoint</A> and provide the min idle that you desire. This cannot be done via the web UI. </P> Fri, 18 Jun 2021 21:24:09 GMT Ryan_Chynoweth 2021-06-18T21:24:09Z Can I schedule Databricks pools to have different minimum idle instance counts at different times of the day https://community.databricks.com/t5/data-engineering/can-i-schedule-databricks-pools-to-have-different-minimum-idle/m-p/25435#M17684 <P>I have few jobs configured to run against a pool at 10 PM every night. After running some tests, I found that increasing minimum idle instance counts improves the job latencies. However, It wouldn't be needed to have so many VMs idle at other times. Is it possible to schedule the pool to have different&nbsp;minimum idle instance counts at different times of the day</P><P></P> Wed, 09 Jun 2021 08:42:58 GMT https://community.databricks.com/t5/data-engineering/can-i-schedule-databricks-pools-to-have-different-minimum-idle/m-p/25435#M17684 sajith_appukutt 2021-06-09T08:42:58Z Re: Can I schedule Databricks pools to have different minimum idle instance counts at different times of the day https://community.databricks.com/t5/data-engineering/can-i-schedule-databricks-pools-to-have-different-minimum-idle/m-p/25436#M17685 <P>Yes you can do so programmatically using the REST APIs.
