Even though this has to do with Persona Management I think this question is really for the Group Policy experts out there.
I can't seem to get Persona Management to work when I apply the GPO to an OU containing only user accounts - the same GPO will work fine when applied to the OU containing the VM Computer's.
So far my guess is that the cause has something to do with the fact that the Persona policies are in the Computer hive which gets applied during bootup and if I assign the GPO to a User OU it is too late in the process to apply the setting.
One argument against my guess is I also have a separate GPO for Windows Folder Redirection (not Persona redirection) this is in User hive but applied to the Computer OU and this works - not exactly an apples to apples comparison.
Where I am going with this is ALL of my VM desktops are in a single OU - the single OU is my limiting factor - I would like to send the Persona data to 2 different datastore paths based on user security group membership like student vs. faculty.
Testing failed with the 2 GPO's applied to the Computer OU using GPO filtering to allow one group access to one GPO, I really thought filtering would work. I also tried setting loopback processing on the GPO but that appears to only effect policies on the user hive.
Anyone have any experience using Group Policies, Persona and multiple datastores??
Thanks
