Has anyone enabled ReFS deduplication on their PVS servers vhdx volume storage? I know that the block cloning works on our primary server, as it reports more free space than others, but thinking about deduping the other PVS servers as well to more efficiently cache data in RAM.

I remember a convo about this a while back. Didn’t it help merging operations but wasn’t there risk of VHDX corruption or something? I’m trying to remember.

Yeah, merges are amazing on ReFS. Just wondering if losing that dedup with robocopy to other servers is reducing performance that can be reclaimed with deduplication.
