Guys, I cant get a good answer across the web on this one. Normally, when you redirect known folders to one drive, there are GPO's you can run that has storage sense go in and dehydrate files after X days of disuse. That way, onedrive cache doesnt go crazy, and bloat the user profiles.
How does storagesense work with fslogix? The GPO for this service at its most frequent says to run once per day; how would this service be able to touch files that are locked away in a file that isnt available unless the user just happens to log in? I've even found documenation from Microsoft that says to NOT run storagesense on AVD deployments. So, how do they expect us to keep things tidy? I see guys trying to run logout scripts that re-attribute onedrive files so they are marked to be offline only, but is this chicken before the egg? Seems like this approach would only help once the user logs in again.
Lastly, none of this helps unless the profiles are being defragmented. I know we have a script for that, and microsoft is testing fslogix that does it on user logoff, so at least we have this part of the puzzle solved.
Speaking of fslogix bloat, does anyone else redirect out the teams folders to keep them from being bloated within the user profile? How has that been going? Would love some tips on standard FSlogix redirection setups that you are running, if you dont mind sharing.
