    Great video dean! Just so I'm clear, for traditional DC scenarios the users do not need to be synced with ADConnect anymore? Also, does this solution remove the need to run the AZFiles Hybrid module to join the storage account to a domain? What about the 'Storage File Data SMB Share Contributor' RBAC role? is that gone too with this update? I've messed with machine-based auth in the past with mixed results, largely due to the authentication method and RBAC requirements.

    If you use this method you don’t give permissions in the storage account, The access key does it for you. You don’t join the storage account to the domain And you don’t sync users HOWEVER, I haven’t tried this in an AD managed environment. But since you already have to sync users…I would generally recommend managing FSLogix the traditional way too. But you can try it and let me know

    Another great video. Thank you. I have been thinking about how to go all cloud AVD with FSLogix for a while. I would love to see a video on cloud GPOs. Also, we now have a problem I am looking for a solution for. I have a fileshare in a azure storage account that is getting massive. To trim costs, we are going through it manually to clean out profiles for terminated users. Do you have a solution you can recommend to automate this process of removing profiles that have not been used for say 120 days?

    This is interesting! Some of our clients only have Azure ADDS to be able to use FSLogix. So even though the File share is loaded as the computer account, this doesn't let the user on the computer browse to it/have full access? FSLogix uses the System account rather than user context?

  • @AzureAcademy

    Regarding security concerns, the SYSTEM account already has potential access all the user profiles on the local system, plus the ability to do anything needed to gain access to the user's data. I'm not sure that this opens up any new risks. Getting rid of AD seems like a big security and reliability win that offsets any potential risks with this approach. I'd be interested to hear if anyone sees something I'm missing here.

    Due to the multiple groups that could have different levels of admin roles like local server admins vs. Azure admins, vs. Azure AD admins and how permissions are granted this method MIGHT give more access then folks should have…which is why I brought it up. But good thought!

    Good day, Dean! I was wondering if there was a feature or solution in AVD that would automatically alert administrators by email, SMS, etc. when an FSLogix VHD/VHDx user disk is about to be full. I'm trying to write the script while looking into Azure Automation and Azure Monitor but unable to build one. I would be grateful if you could offer the finest advice or any other services we could use to make it possible.

  • @AzureAcademy

    There is no way to alert from the Azure level if a .vhd in a file share is getting full. My preferred approach is to use dynamic disks and make the disk size very large, this way I don’t have to do maintenance except on a few disks who near the limit. Also the cost of FSLogix depends on the file share you have. If Azure files premium, the cost comes from the size of the file share, not the disks. What do you have?

    What would happen if a user was to attempt to browse the file share by it's UNC path? Would they be able to browse the file share and potentially see/download/mount other users FSLogix VHD(x) files? Or is it only administrators and system processes that can access the creds in Credential Manager? OK - just read Marcel's blog post - he confirms that normal users can't see others stuff.

    What if the storage account was not AD joined but, instead of using a storage key, you cached an Azure AD user account credentials via Credential Manager for each user and then mapped a drive to the fslogix Azure File share using those cached Azure AD user account credentials?

    Wouldn’t work. The Azure AD user has no rights in the file share so mapping the permissions to credential manager wouldn’t work. And in order to make it work you need Azure AD Kerberos…which requires synced users

    @@AzureAcademy I didn't mention it but I meant that you could first use the "Connect" PS script with the storage key to mount a drive to the Azure File share, then add Azure AD user/group permissions at the root as needed. Then, the rest of what I mentioned before. I'll need to read up more on the need for syncing for Azure AD kerberos auth, thanks for that detail.

    @azureacademy i have tried the tutorial but stuck in two issues. One credential manager deletes the credentials after restart and second after adding credentials still machine can't able to access the file share. I have tried to add file share by using mount script it successfully adds it and i can access it. The only difference is mount script has new-psdrive command extra, do you think i am missing something. Testing environment is AVD joined to Azure Ad and win10 muti session host.

    I was looking for this solution. Thanks.😊 Question: can this method be used for cloud only and ad-sync users. What would be the best solution if we have ad sync users and only a couple cloud only users? Do I have to add first part of the script for automation or once I have the golden image and I can run that once with the registry keys and that should do the trick.. Thanks

    You’re welcome! Answers: you would only use this for cloud users. Synced users will use Entra ID Kerberos or AD Authentication. And YES you can use both methods at once…but on different shares. You can add the script into your image but I generally discourage that so you can use your image with more solutions

I am not sure if I am missing anything but I RDPd to the Server as a local admin, setup all the Registry Keys and also Saved the Credentials under Windows Credentials and logged off as local admin and used the Remote Destkop (AVD) app to login but it is not creating the FSLogix Profile for me, Am I missing anything?

    I got this to work - once. I am having to run the script multiple times per day. Why is it not persisting? I have a brand new host pool, session host, workspace, applications group, etc. and new fslogix/storage. We are all in the cloud: no AD DS, no Kerberos, no syncing; ONLY Entra ID authentication. But of course I can't deploy it like this. I don't care about being able to see a mounted drive (although when I DO see it as admin, it indicates "disconnected" even though it worked).

    I don't think this method works. I read the guide from the source blog. Of course I can get this to work from an interactive user, but from SYSTEM it does not work. You can't at the Azure Files IAM level assign an AAD computer object (machine account) the "Storage File Data SMB Share Contributor" role. To do something like that, you'd need to set "default share-level permissions" which requires an AD source, which is the entire point of trying to cloud-native.
