Not a real answer but @Jarian Gibson has tested this. @Dave Brett and @dready are using files/profiles (no peer tho)

My testing went well when I was testing within User Layers, FSLogix. I need to get another license and test with latest FSLogix version.

We use Nutanix Files shares to host UPM profies and primarily FSLogix profile containers these days.

I have used Nutanix Files considerably but no Peersync as of yet, probably not too helpful though.

For those of using Files - how has that gone? Reliability? Performance? Run into any hiccups?

For what it’s worth: https://www.brighttalk.com/webinar/nutanix-files-simple-scalable-and-reliable-file-storage-for-citrix-euc/ (you might recognize a name there 😅)

Good reliability and predictable performance at scale, I have only seen one major issue and that appears to be an anomaly where the Files lost AD Connection, we had to reestablish and fix permission issues but that was one time out of many clients that I am aware of

@Kees Baggerman that's cheating! 😄

But he isn’t wrong 🙂

🥳 this was based on a customer deployment, 70k+ users

Reliable, stable and predictable/linear performance - there are some minor gaps and challenges when it comes to backup, quota warning customization and compliance auditing. Also the permission management is a bit cumbersome with the MMC plugin. And it’s probably not the cheapest storage one can get. But for EUC it’s a perfect solution if you’re running on Nutanix, because you usually have lots of unused storage in your clusters and Files can make use of this.

@dready who are you using for backup?

we moved to HYCU some time ago

Also looks like I just got voted to do a Files with EUC webinar for CUGC lol

Peersync only usefull when RPO=0 wanted. Generally used in a stretched cluster environnement (Nutanix cluster)
