08/02/2019, 5:54 PMAnother reason why Citrix should make Profile Management support on top of FSLog Profile Container, that would be awesome
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 5:55 PMGood idea
n
Nick Panaccio
08/02/2019, 5:55 PMI’d prefer Microsoft simply adding that capability so that I don’t have to use CPM at all.

Ryan Gallier
08/02/2019, 5:56 PMi concur, actually
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 5:56 PMI actually like the features they’ve added to CPM. Like the hybrid option. 🤷🏽♂️

Nick Panaccio
08/02/2019, 6:02 PMDon’t get me wrong, I don’t hate CPM. I just love FSLogix that much more.
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:06 PMWell a combination of FSLogix and CPM would be a very good match
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:06 PMthe best of both worlds
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:08 PM@Nick Panaccio CPM has outlived it's purpose, no doubt about that. But if Citrix would allow CPM on top of FSLogix Profile Container, we can still use all of the good stuff like granular include/exclude of files and folders. The current redirections.xml is just not up to par with what CItrix has in CPM

08/02/2019, 6:09 PMthat is true, but they are pretty quick on their development cycle. Maybe one of the guys can see this
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:10 PMotherwise I intend to bring it up at PTEC EU later this year, if I get the chance
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:13 PMCPM short of has this now. Also Citrix doing this would be at mercy of Microsoft.
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:14 PMCPM has OST, search, and large file containers. Need to do some more testing on what all the large file container can do.
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:14 PMIn my opinion Citrix should really just stop any further development of these features, they are probably 6-7 years to late
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:15 PMThey still need to maintain a solution in my opinion. Also not mention this could get into a finger pointing scenario if there was an issue.
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:16 PMI agree with you on the pointing scenario 🙂
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:17 PMI agree on being able to use FSLogix as storage option but disagree on killing the product. Give customers options.
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:17 PMNo, not killing CPM but stop any further development of the container stuff they are doing
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:17 PMCPM should still be an option
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:18 PMYep that’s what I meant, not killing container stuff.
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:18 PMMicrosoft could change something anytime and customers could be in bad spot also.
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:19 PMTrue
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:22 PMBut I have heard Citrix reps., at least here in DK, on many occasions say, that Citrix needs to prioritize development on core technology, and in my opinion the container feature of CPM is not vital to that particular technology
n
Nick Panaccio
08/02/2019, 6:23 PMIt’d be different if it offered the full feature set that FSLogix already does. They’re still playing catch up. It may happen someday, and those without a Microsoft EA or the desire to go to a third party utility will benefit.
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:26 PMIt may offer a lot of it. I need to finish testing the new large file container feature recently released
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:27 PMThe large file container feature is still not able to handel the entire profile right?
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:27 PMhandle*
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:27 PMIt’s not but does it need to? I like the hybrid option of files and containers.
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:28 PMI just don’t like that you can’t split out.
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:28 PMHmm...added complexity?
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:28 PMOf having both?
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:28 PMYes
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:28 PMTo answer my own question...not really 🙂
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:29 PMFrom a multiple site/dr not really
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:29 PMIt's almost no different from having CPM on top of FSLogix
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:29 PMFiles are easily replicated vs containers
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:30 PMMaintenance also
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:30 PMThere are trade offs for both
n
Nick Panaccio
08/02/2019, 6:31 PMI wonder if one of them will expand to include ProgramData. I know that’s a pain point with Start menu and UWP apps. App Layering User Layers is the only solution for that one, AFAIK.
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:31 PMI cloud also easily exclude the containers in CPM from replication without splitting out.
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:32 PMSince they are cache and easily recreated
n
Nick Panaccio
08/02/2019, 6:32 PM@Kasper Johansen It was mentioned in another recent thread, but somebody here is using a PowerShell script to dynamically create the redirections.xml file at logon. That may be worth investigating.
👍 2
j
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:33 PMWritable Volumes should function similar to User Layers.
Jarian Gibson
08/02/2019, 6:33 PMI can’t type lol
k
Kasper Johansen
08/02/2019, 6:35 PM@Nick Panaccio hmm...that may be worth a look, but I still need that wildcard feature though
n
Nick Panaccio
08/02/2019, 6:36 PMI want to say that it was @David Ott ‘s script?
d
David Ott
08/02/2019, 8:43 PM@Kasper Johansen you should check out my script
David Ott
08/02/2019, 8:44 PMb
Brandon Mitchell
08/02/2019, 8:59 PMI’d like to see WEM manage/enhance FSLogix... possibly managing/replacing all the custom grooming scripts that are out there.
