It doesn't seem to work very well. The volumes deduped on Win Server 2016 with virtual machines on them don't work on Windows 10 v1903 with dedup packages installed from previous posts. Once you access a VM disk (tried with vmdk) it throws a BSOD error related to dedup.sys driver. Both machine are having the latest patches.
It's working fine here. No problems accessing dedup'd volumes from Enterprise 1903 or Server 2019 1809.
Have you deduped those volumes using Win Server 2016 and then mount them to Win 10 Ent. 1903? This is what i've done and the Win 10 1903 OS crushed. Backwards compatibility might be unsupported; although i didn't find any information regarding this limitation.
I don't currently use Server 2016. It could be a compatibility issue but like you, I couldn't find any information to confirm my suspicions.
Hi. Hope i do not ask what someone has already asked before, but is Windows 10 Enterprise a requirement, or could you use Windows 10 Pro as well?
It should work in any SKU but I can't say that with 100% certainty as I don't use Pro or any SKU's other than Enterprise and Server. I am however 100% certain that installing it will do no harm, whether it works or does not.
If you have problems with installing the dedup packages as I had on 1903 error 50 I think remove the packages and reinstall remove dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-VdsInterop-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1.cab /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-VdsInterop-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1-en-US.cab dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-FileServer-ServerCore-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1.cab /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-FileServer-ServerCore-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1-en-US.cab dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-ChunkLibrary-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1.cab /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-ChunkLibrary-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1-en-US.cab dism /online /remove-package /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1.cab /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1-en-US.cab Reinstall dism /online /add-package /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-VdsInterop-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1.cab /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-VdsInterop-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1-en-US.cab dism /online /add-package /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-FileServer-ServerCore-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1.cab /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-FileServer-ServerCore-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1-en-US.cab dism /online /add-package /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-ChunkLibrary-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1.cab /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-ChunkLibrary-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1-en-US.cab dism /online /add-package /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1.cab /packagepath:Microsoft-Windows-Dedup-Package-amd64-10.0.18362.1-en-US.cab dism /online /enable-feature /featurename Dedup-Core /all Anyway worked for me...
