Is ReFS supported in Laserfiche 11 volumes?

asked on December 13, 2021

Hi,

As the title states: is ReFS supported in Laserfiche 11 volumes? So far I've found a couple of unanswered questions in the site, and nothing in support:

 

It would be great to know this for future implementations of the self-hosted suite.

Laserfiche volumes are compatible with the ReFS file system and supported when ReFS is deployed in a configuration supported by Microsoft.

ReFS is designed to be highly compatible with NTFS and Laserfiche does not use any of the features unavailable on ReFS at this time. We have not encountered issues using ReFS for repository volumes in basic compatibility testing.

We do not recommend deploying ReFS on basic disks for use with Production Laserfiche systems. Per Microsoft, "Deploying ReFS on basic disks is best suited for applications that implement their own software resiliency and availability solutions" which Laserfiche does not. Use ReFS with Storage Spaces or Storage Spaces Direct instead.
