OneDrive Files on Demand & 1703

[tango]

Hi,

 

I understand that "files on demand" requires 1709+ , is this an OS limitation or is it just the version of OneDrive that is installed on 1709+ ?

 

Basically if I have 1703 PCs , can I update the OneDrive client to support "files on demand" ?

 

I'm guessing I'd have to go down the road of a per user SCCM deployment if this is the case ?

 

Or is my only option to go to 1709+ ?

 

Management want students to use it in the labs and while most labs are 1709 I still have around 300 PCs with 1703 which for various reasons weren't upgraded last summer.

 

Thanks,

As far as I know, it is both an OS limit and a OneDrive client limit.

 

Files on demand will only work on 1709 and above, but the version of OneDrive that comes with 1709 out of the box does not support it and needs to be updated (it will do this itself) before it is available.

Thanks. Looks like I'm going to have to do an upgrade task sequence then
