I am having a nasty problem and i can’t figure out what’s causing it.
We use DEM to create drivemappings. One of the drivermappings isn’t being created and shows an error in the flexengine.log
[ERROR] Drive mapping refers to local drive ‘H’ (Homedir.xml)
To me it looks like driveletter H is occupied at the moment DEM is trying to create the drivemapping.
When i do a -UemRefreshDrives after login, the mapping is created.
I have looked in the golden image and there is no H: drive in use, only C: and sometimes D: (cdrom)
After some help from DEMdev
You could try to investigate with a Before profile archive import Logon Task, running something like cmd.exe /c DIR H: >”%USERPROFILE%H-DIR.txt”.
I have found the culprit. The H drive is indeed in use:
Volume in drive H is CVApps
Volume Serial Number is AEE0-8B16
Directory of H:

To me it looks like an appstack or writable is attached before login and is using drive letter H: and a bit further in the process the driveletter is released as it is not visible afer login.
We do use Writable Volumes and Appstacks so that makes sense, but i never had any issues with driveletters before.
Do you have any idea what could be te cause of this?
