Chapter 6 Implement and manage FSlogIx

By default, the Windows operating system creates a local user profile that is tightly

integrated with the OS, but FSLogix allows you to use a user profile on a remote file

share/storage. See Figure 6-1.

Figure 6-1. FSLogix remote user profile on Azure storage

User profiles can be copied to and from the network when a user signs in and out of

AVD, but user profiles can often be large, and sign-in and sign-out times often became

unacceptable due to coping profiles to network storage. That’s where FSLogix helps to

redirect a profile instead of copying it from the network. FSLogix containers redirect user profiles to a network location, and user profiles are placed in VHDx files so that they can easily be mounted at runtime/sign-in time. Mounting and using a profile on the network

eliminates the delays often associated with solutions that copy files.

Are Multiple User Profile Connections Possible?

Having concurrent or multiple connections to user profiles means the user is connected

to multiple hosts/sessions and using the same user profile stored on remote storage.

Concurrent or multiple connections are not recommended in Azure Virtual Desktop,

because they may result in temp profiles on a concurrent session and lead to data loss.

The best practice is to create a different user profile storage for each host pool. Users cannot have concurrent sessions on the same host pool, so you can use only one profile

storage per host pool.
