Is it normal and/or optimal to use a DFS path as a PVS Store?

I normally use a local disk attached to each PVS server and then use Robocopy / PVS Vdisk replicator tool to replicate the files. I have seen people use a DFS namespace before to host the Vdisk share and DFS-R to replicate the files

Some of the reading I'm doing say it's unsupported, using a DFS namespace....

even only with a single target enabled?

That may well be the nuance.....the docs I'm looking at are oldish

Yeah they used to say something similar with UPM where it didnt support A/A DFS-N folder targets

Local disk also here, it's not really an issue if the DFS is performant. I think it is supported.

Local disk for me as well.

Thanks all. I think "not popular but should be ok" looks like it might sum it up.....if it ain't broke, I guess....

Might be okay depending on how the namespace is configured. Multiple folder targets, Custom referrals, Replication. All could really lead to unknown impacts. If its a single folder in a namespace though, why use DFS anyway?

We use DFS paths for our vdisks with no issues. We also use Xenserver with PVS accelerator so that helps too.
