Using WEM for profile management, containers w/onedrive container. the new techzone document regarding this came out and recommends you enable "It is recommended that VHDX disks be automatically reattached in sessions be enabled when deploying containers in the Citrix Profile Management solution (profile container, OneDrive container, Outlook container). " However I do not see this option in the WEM console, only in Studio. Anyone know when it will be available in WEM? https://community.citrix.com/tech-zone/build/deployment-guides/cpm-one-drive-container/

Have only ever found the reattach VHDX option in Studio or GPO. Seems missing from all WEM consoles including Service. Have added a separate Studio policy for one customer just to set that outside WEM for some troubleshooting.

In studio it seems the default for reattach is "enabled", like you wouldnt even need to configure it. Was wondering if it is just enabled in WEM. I liked configuring WEM because you could differentiate the items for container vs. file based easier. However i'm seeing some feature disparity. and almost every piece of documentation on profile management refers to studio or GPO. there's really nothing about WEM.
I keep hoping WEM will get over that hump and be the product it could be (they add features like profile management, Group policies) but it never seems to get there. development seems slow which I do not understand because it is a nice product.

Hi, @Chris Schrameyer Seems we missing this configuration in WEM, we will add this option to the web console. BTW, currently, most of the new features will be available for the WEM web console. Pls. check https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/workspace-environment-management/service/manage for your reference. Thanks a lot!

Hi @Chris Schrameyer, same with the policy in Studio and GPO, the reattach VHDX option is enabled by default when using WEM to configure UPM although it is not in the WEM web console UI.
