Data Igloo User Guide

Appendix C

Example User Profile Redirection to a Real Partition

This example explains how to redirect the user John Smith to a real partition using Data Igloo.

If the C: drive is in a Frozen state, the user data is lost on reboot. To ensure that the user data is not
lost, we can use Data Igloo to redirect the user profile to a real partition (say E: drive) that always
remains Thawed.

Complete the following steps to redirect the user profile from C: drive to E: drive:

1. Install Deep Freeze on the computer. Deep Freeze Standard and Deep Freeze Enterprise

(workstation) are both applicable for this example. Ensure that only C: drive stays Frozen.

2. Reboot Thawed.

3. Install Data Igloo.

4. Launch Data Igloo.

In the User Profile Redirection tab, select John Smith. Click Custom Location and Redirect User
Profile
.

5. The Source is selected automatically (C:\Users\John Smith). Click Browse for the target. Copy

NTFS permissions and Copy Share permissions are selected by default.
