Hi,

We are currently in the midst of a home drive migration from an on-prem file server to OneDrive, we will be using Folder Redirection to redirect users Known Folders to OneDrive. This presents some challenges on shared computers such as our Library and Lab computers where students could login to any computer on a given day.

Our intention was to implement FsLogix to ease some of these challenges – We’ve had to implement Profile disks due to one critical application not been compatible with the OneDrive Sync and so excluded from it. However, it’s giving me some headaches at the moment. It works perfectly in a simple config with one user logging into one machine at a time, but I’ve been given some requirements which I’m struggling to make work.

Firstly, users need to be able to login multiple concurrent sessions – in addition to physical desktops we have an RDS deployment, which is currently using UPD’s but our intention was to ditch UPD’s and also apply FsLogix Profiles to RDS, so our users maybe logged on to one or more physical desktops and then have an RDS Application open as well. I have been testing differencing disks with multiple physical computers. MS documentation suggests setting it to option 3 should allow you to connect concurrent sessions from different computers. However, after logging into the first computer, the second computer fails to connect the profile log shows:

Attempting merge of diff disk \pathRW.VHDX
RW diff disk is open in another session
RW exists, Taking RO role
then I get:
Status set to 1: Cannot load user’s profile
Further down I get:
LoadProfile failed. Version: 2.9.8884.27471 User: User. SID: SID. SessionId: 2. FrxStatus: 5 (Access is denied.)

Secondly, I’ve been given the requirement to seperate out Staff and Student Profile disks in to seperate folders – given we’re applying a computer settings GPO I don’t see how this is feasible, maybe on the desktops different reg keys via a user GPO depending on who’s logging in. 

If anyone can advise on the above it would be appreciated. I would be interested to hear if anyone else has managed to configure fsLogix in a mixed Physical Virtual deployment.

Thanks
