  1. Configuring FSLogix via Parallels RAS
  2. Best practices

SMB locations

Pros:

  • Less impact on writes caches such as I/O capabilities.

  • Faster logon/logoff times in comparison to Cloud Cache.

Cons:

  • Manual replication requirements and an active-passive methodology only.

  • Lack of seamless failover.

  • Can only consume SMB locations. Azure Files can be used as well. For more information, see: https://www.christiaanbrinkhoff.com/2020/03/01/learn-here-how-to-configure-azure-files-with-active-directory-ad-authentication-for-fslogix-profile-container-and-msix-app-attach/.
