Didn't PVS use it as well? I must admit my provisioning knowledge is well rusty these days though

yes it does

It man have. I keep finding this on my research https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-virtual-apps-desktops/manage-deployment/vda-registration.html#mcs-based

like said before its also used for PVS. Minor hint: Be aware that Citrix changed the "ArdenceData" stanza to "CitrixData" in Personality.ini lately... If you are not using BIS-F and relying on that stanza to detected if you are in Standard or Private mode you are screwed #beentheredonethat

We're on 1912 LTSR, and it still says

ArdenceData

, but that is really interesting. I've always just looked for

_diskmode

and I'm assuming that has not changed,

Yep. "_diskmode" havent changed...

I never actually looked myself. I need to look and see on my side too. I assume it's in the PVS target correct?

Correct.. the

personality.ini

file started with PVS, and when Citrix created MCS, they adopted the file. ( Jarian & I used to work with one of the original Ardence engineers back in the day).

Just tried a new Win 10 build with VDA v2303 and it looks like Citrix have changed 'personality.ini' to 'MCSPersonality.ini' (in MCS environments) - playing havoc with BIS-F now not being able to detect diskmode correctly 😢

I wonder if that will apply to PVS also

Not sure - unfortunately I've not got a PVS environment to test in at the moment.
