Intermediate storage DFS

Hi.

We use FSlogix. Profiles maximum 20gb.

  1. I want to transfer to DFS. What intermediate storage should I set up ? 20*32 ?

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/troubleshoot/how-to-determine-the-minimum-staging-area-dfsr-needs-for-a-replicated-folder

I got result 672Gb.

  1. How can I change the default value? When I change the default number 4096, I get an error: Cannot change membership properties. The object does not exist.

Hello @47451047,

Thank you for posting here.

Did you mean you change the staging folder size as below?

If so, each replicated folder has its own staging folder, which, by default, is located under the local path of the replicated folder in the DfsrPrivate\Staging folder. The default size of each staging folder is 4,096 MB. This is not a hard limit.

Insufficient staging folder size can result in a replication backlog. The default staging folder size is 4096 MB. As a general rule of thumb, you should set the staging folder size to twice the size of the data being replicated.

For example for a replicated folder containing 10 GB of data, set the staging folder size to 20 GB. This recommendation is dependant upon the size of the files being replicated and how often they are updated. Files smaller than 256 KB are not staged, so a replicated folder containing a large percentage of files below that threshold may work fine with a smaller staging folder size. Files that are updated frequently may result in the need for a larger staging area.

Hope the information above is helpful to you.
