[1607, au] W10 - UEV - Some questions

[Simcfc73]

Hi Guys,

 

I'm obviously getting into a muddle with UE-V and wondered if you guys can point me in the right direction with a few questions.

 

I've set it up in GP but seem to have to enable it via PowerShell.. its ignoring the GP settings which I can get round.

 

I've set the templates up with the permissions according to the TechNet articles but am getting an access denied error.

 

An exception occurred while processing the file <\\server\UEV-TEMPLATE\VdiState.xml> from the settings template catalog: File open error: Access is denied.

 

and

 

An error occurred in the ApplySettingsTemplateCatalog utility.

 

I'm also working out the template folder as I'm confused.

 

My settings are below

 

ContactITDescription

ContactITUrl

DontSyncWindows8AppSettings False

FirstUseNotificationEnabled True

MaxPackageSizeInBytes 1

SettingsImportNotifyDelayInSeconds 10

SettingsImportNotifyEnabled True

SettingsStoragePath \\server\UEV\%username%

SettingsTemplateCatalogPath \\server\UEV-TEMPLATE

SupportedTemplateSchemaVersions {http://schemas.microsoft.com/UserExperienceVirtualization/2012/SettingsLocationT...

SyncEnabled True

SyncMethod SyncProvider

SyncOverMeteredNetwork True

SyncOverMeteredNetworkWhenRoaming True

SyncProviderPingEnabled True

SyncTimeoutInMilliseconds 2000

SyncUnlistedWindows8Apps True

TrayIconEnabled False

VdiCollectionName DefaultVdiCollection

WaitForSyncOnApplicationStart False

WaitForSyncOnLogon False

WaitForSyncTimeoutInMilliseconds 2000

 

I can see when a user logs on that a folder is being created for them in \\server\UEV\ but not all settings are being saved.

 

Should it, when it reads the template folder. copy the template settings into the UEV folder? I've created a filestream template but it never gets copied.

 

Oh and when I enable UE-V it stops the GP setting with my drive maps for some reason too...

 

I'm ploughing through TechNet trying to work this out, just had too many mince pies.

 

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Okay I sorted it out after watching a few videos and getting my head round it.

 

This one is a good start

 

 

One of the things I found was it didnt like the permissions it asked me to set on the templates folder so I opened it up for all domian users for now.

 

UE-V wasnt enabled even when I used GP so I did a powershell startup script which works.. also the templates weren't downloading so I've scripted ApplySettingsTemplateCatalog.exe to run and they magically appear.

 

Outlook profiles are stored after I added this template https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/UE-V-Settings-Location-8a2bc800/view/Discussions#content

 

Mapped drives aren't working from my GP though so thats the next bit... and I really want to get Filestream working to save their credentials but I think that may be a no go.
