It’s not the optimal way, it’s recommended because it’s the ONLY way without 3 party productsĬheck the post Getting Started with Office 365 to get all the registry hacks to disable all annoying splash screens. Yes Microsoft & Citrix recommends redirecting the file to a file share. As more and more companies migrate to Office 365 the biggest challenges are the huge OST files. Yes it works fine with Citrix Profile Management and streaming, but I’m worried.īut that’s not the biggest problem. As you can see below from some small lab testing the folder contains 1984 files in 1208 folders. You see, to be able to keep changes in Turbo Containers we need to roam the folder AppData\Local\Spoon\Containers.
That got me thinking and worrying at the same time. If you take a look at the post Troubleshooting Slow Logons Caused by a Large User Profile by ControlUp you’ll learn that it’s not only the size of the profile that matters, it’s also the number of files.
It wasn’t until reviewing Claudio’s book and working on my whitepaper that got me thinking. You’ve probably heard about Microsoft User Profile Disk (UPD) and learned that it only works for pure RDSH environments. In the last couple of weeks I’ve been working on my upcoming whitepaper Turbo Containers Reference Architecture for Citrix, VMware & Microsoft RDSH Environments and also reviewing Claudio Rodrigues upcoming book RDS 2012 R2 Complete.
