I cannot post any images, as my account isn't yet verified (first post)...
Hi Technet
I've added User Profile Disks and checked every tick for "Store only the following folders" on the RDS:

Everything works as expected. But with tihs configuration most of the private data are stored within the UPDs. Therefor I want to redirect the "personal folders" to our NAS.
As in previous infrastructures I used the folder redirection policy. As a test, I tried only to redirect the "Music" folder:

I linked and the filtered the policy as follow
Now, when I log in as any user the music folder isn't part of the UPD anymore: The "Music" folder is missing the link-arrow but still points to C:\Users\%username%\Music. But as in the first screenshot stated "all other folders are not preserved".
And that's exactly what's happening. If I save something in the folder it's gone.
But I thought with the Folder Redirection Policy those folders are redirected to the designated root path - and that's exactly what's not happening.
I tried the following types of Root Folder for the policy:
- local path (on the RDS where the UPDs are as well) for "root Path" like: D:\Users
- Share \\NAS008\PersonalData\Users
- DFS \\ad.example.com\Personal Data\Users
I've added the RDS-Server and even the DCs to Security Filtering of the policy (I remembered something of Merge).
I gave full access to the Root Path to everyone, to authenticated users, to domain users
I have no clue, why my Music-Folder isn't redirected.
But I know the policy gets applied as I made a Test-Shortcut on the Desktop which gets created:

What am I missing?
Many thanks!
