Daniel and his organizational team called and many followed the call. Participants and speakers came to Bremen on Friday to follow the many lectures and workshops.
A huge thank you for the work on site. Because if you have never organized such an event, you don’t even know how much work is involved!
On Saturday my MVP colleagues Thomas Gölles and Stefan Bisser presented a new project “Mr.OneDrive’s BOT” to the participants for the first time in a very unspectacular way. Here you can learn and see more. The video is 4 minutes long. Ragnar Heil also recorded a podcast and released it on Saturday. Just listen, there are not 10 minutes that you have to invest. And if you want to take part in the preview of Mr.OneDrive’s Bot, you only have to answer a few questions
In the early afternoon, I told the administrators why and what the OneDrive Group Policies are all about. Heir there is the sliding deck.
Thanks to all participants … and see you next year
SharePoint Saturday Bremen am 29.02.2020
Eigentlich muss es SharePoimnt Saturday North Germeny/Bremen 2020 lauten, der mittlerweile zum 3. Mal stattfindet. Und der eigentlich am Freitag beginnt. Mit Workshops. Damit haben sich in Deutschland mit Bremen, Köln und München drei Städzte etabliert, die längst nicht mehr nur das Thema SharePoint abdecken, sondern alle Facetten von Office 365 beleuchten.
Mein Thema wird dieses Jahr in Bremen
OneDrive Group Policies – Not only for The Enterprise
lauten. Dies ist ein Thema, welches ich zum ersten Mal in Orlando auf der Ignite 2019 bei Mirosoft zeigen durfte. jetzt heißt es also registrieren und in meine Session kommen, damit Ihr mitbekommet, was Microsoft in Sachen Gruppenrichtlinien so drauf hat. Es gibt auch die OneDrive TOP 10 bei den Gruppenrichtlinien.

With the insider Version of the 19.152.0801.0004 Microsoft published a new Version of the OneDrive Group Policies
You find the Group Policies here (adml and admx)
%localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\BuildNumber\adm\
and also the localicied versions in 17 languages
And here is the history of my blogs

moved to Computer configuration |
| Set the default location for the OneDrive folder |
Computer Configuration
* Allow OneDrive to disable permission inheritance in folders synced read-only
This setting lets the OneDrive sync client remove all inherited permissions within read-only folders syncing on a user’s PC.
If you enable this setting, the OneDrive sync client can disable permission inheritance in read-only folders to improve sync speed.
If you disable or do not configure this setting, the OneDrive sync client will preserve permission inheritance in read-only folders. Sync speed may be significantly slower.
** Block file downloads when users are low on disk space
This setting lets you specify a minimum amount of available disk space and block the OneDrive sync client (OneDrive.exe) from downloading files when users have less than this amount.
Users will be prompted with options to help free up space.
Minimal available Diskspace: 0 to 10 TB
[08/28/19] Tehre is a bug, because the highest number is 9999. Microsoft is informed
*** Warn users who are low on diskspace
This setting lets you specify a minimum amount of available disk space and warn users when the OneDrive sync client (OneDrive.exe) downloads a file that causes them to have less than this amount.
Users will be prompted with options to help free up space.
In the Value field, enter the amount of available disk space below which users will receive warning. If you use this policy together with “Block file downloads when users are low on disk space”, the value for this setting should be greater than the value for the blocking downloads
Valid values are from 0 through 10 TB
[08/28/19] Tehre is a bug, because the highest number is 9999. Microsoft is informed
**** Enable Automatic upload bandwidth management for OneDrive
This setting lets the OneDrive sync client (OneDrive.exe) upload data in the background only when unused bandwidth is available. It prevents the sync client from interfering with other apps that are using the network. This setting is powered by the Windows LEDBAT (Low Extra Delay Background Transport) protocol. When LEDBAT detects increased latency that indicates other TCP connections are consuming bandwidth, the sync client will reduce its own consumption to prevent interference. When network latency decreases again and bandwidth is freed up, the sync client will increase the upload rate and consume the unused bandwidth.
If you enable this setting, the sync client upload rate will be set to "Adjust automatically" based on bandwidth availability and users won’t be able to change it.
If you disable or do not configure this setting, users can choose to limit the upload rate to a fixed value (in KB/second), or set it to "Adjust automatically".
Important
If you enable or disable this setting, and then change it back to Not Configured, the last configuration will remain in effect. We recommend enabling this setting instead of "Limit the sync client upload speed to a fixed rate." You should not enable both settings at the same time. This setting will override "Limit the sync client upload rate to a percentage of throughput" if both are enabled on the same device.
* Prevent users from syncing libraries and folders shared from other organizations
This GPO allow/disallow Tenant 2 Tenant Synchronization. Microsoft has named this Synchronization B2B Sync.
** Require users to confirm large delete operations
Unfortunately Microsoft has not announced the numbers, by which the function will trigger.The Threshold is 200.
to push another number you must do it manually. Read here
[10/30/19] with Version 19.192.0926.0010 you have it in the Group policy
*** Set the sync client update ring
This GPO is moved from User to the Computer-Configuration.
**** Specify SharePoint Server URL and organization name AND Specify the OneDrive location in a hybrid environment
The only way, to sync files with OneDrive to the OnPremise SharePoint is SharePoint Server 2019. Toy sync to and from older Versions of SharePoint (SharePoint Server 2016, 2013, 2010 and 2007) you must use the old sync client called Groove.exe

OneDrive – Next Generation Sync Client |Group Policies
Administrators of companies want to automate and control the behavior of OneDrive and OneDrive for Business. Sometimes their want to disable the usage of OneDrive (Personal). Or They want to say, where the user has to save their documents. And these administrators may do that with group policies. First, they have to download the OneDrive Deployment Package. You will find the following files:
ADMx/ADMl Templates are stored in %systemroot%\PolicyDefinitions folder. The language File has to be stored in the corresponding language folder. If you later open the Group policy editor, they will be opened and checked.
No you open the Group Management console on the Server
 |
You should create a new GPO and give it a name like “OneDrive”. |
 |
Now you may edit the entries. |
Just a reminder: The Next Generation Sync Client is running in a context of a user.Therefore you have to open the User configuration, admin templates and here OneDrive:
– Coauthoring and in-app sharing for Office files
– Configure OneDrive.exe to receive updates after consumer production
– Prevent users from changing the location of their OneDrive folder
– Prevent users from configuring personal OneDrive accounts
– Set the default location for the OneDrive folder
– Users can choose how to handle Office files in conflict
There are two more policies, which are on a different place: (Computer configuration, admin templates and the OneDrive
– Prevent users from using the remote file fetch feature to access files on the computer
– Set the maximum percentage of upload bandwidth that OneDrive.exe uses
you find all these descriptions and more here.
And here is another Link about “Use Group Policy in Windows 2012 R2 to disable OneDrive functionality in Windows 8.1 clients”
Often I hear the question : Is it possible, to automate install of the Next Generation Sync Client? The answer is yes and I will describe that in another blog post.
Summary
Group Policy is the ideal tool to provide different user groups have different preferences to OneDrive and OneDrive for Business with the Next Generation Sync Client.
Microsoft SharePoint Workspace 2010 und Gruppenrichtlinien
Über Gruppenrichtlinien können nachstehende Richtlinien zu SharePoint Workspace 2010 eingestellt werden:
| Richtlinie | Erklärung |
| Groove Server Manager-Sicherheit für gültige Links | Diese Einstellung bestimmt, ob die automatische Konfiguration von SharePoint Workspace-Konten fortgesetzt werden darf, wenn das SSL-Zertifikat von Groove Server Manager ungültig ist. Bei aktivierter Option muss das vorgelegte SSL-Zertifikat von Groove Server Manager gültig sein, damit die Kommunikation zwischen SharePoint Workspace und Manager fortgesetzt werden kann. |
| Groove-Arbeitsbereiche und freigegebene Ordner verhindern | Ermöglicht Benutzern nur das Erstellen von SharePoint-Arbeitsbereichen. |
| IPv4 bevorzugen | Regelt die Verwendung von IPv4-Adressen durch SharePoint Workspace: Wenn aktiviert, werden zuerst IPv4-Adressen ausprobiert, bevor IPv6 verwendet wird. |
| IPv6 aktivieren | Regelt die Verwendung von IPv6-Adressen durch SharePoint Workspace: Wenn aktiviert, werden IPv6-Adressen verwendet, wenn 0 oder nicht ausgefüllt, werden IPv6-Adressen ignoriert. |
| Liste blockierter Groove-Relayserver |
Diese Richtlinieneinstellung hindert den SharePoint Workspace-Client an der Initiierung von Verbindungen mit den aufgelisteten SharePoint Workspace-Relayservern. |
| Maximale Anzahl von Proxyverbindungsfehlern festlegen |
Diese Richtlinieneinstellung legt den Grenzwert für die Anzahl fehlgeschlagener Proxyverbindungsversuche mit einem Groove-Relayserver durch den SharePoint Workspace-Client fest. Wenn der Grenzwert erreicht wird, werden keine weiteren Proxyverbindungsversuche mit dem Groove-Relayserver unternommen. |
| SharePoint Workspace-Kontokonfigurationscode erforderlich | Beim Erstellen eines Kontos werden den Benutzern Optionen angezeigt, um Kontokonfigurationscodes zum Erstellen ihrer Konten zu verwenden bzw. nicht zu verwenden. (Diese Codes stellen den Benutzern letztlich verwaltete Identitäten bereit.) Durch Anwenden dieser Richtlinie wird die Option "Kein Code" in der Benutzeroberfläche des Groove-Clients deaktiviert. |
Pfad für Einstellungen:
Benutzerkonfiguration/Administrative Vorlagen/Microsoft SharePoint Workspace 2010.
Standardmäßig sind alle Richtlinien deaktiviert.
Sie brauchen mindestens Windows Vista oder höher zum Anwenden dieser Gruppenrichtlinien.
Und dann gibt es noch eine Richtlinie von SharePoint Workspace 2010 in Verbindung mit Groove Server 2010 Manager
und 
| Richtlinie | Erklärung |
| Groove Server Manager-Name |
Diese Richtlinieneinstellung ermöglicht SharePoint Workspace die Kontaktaufnahme mit dem angegebenen Groove Server Manager sowie das automatische Herunterladen einer verwalteten Identität, wenn SharePoint Workspace von einem Benutzer geöffnet wird. Die verwaltete Identität wird nur gesendet, wenn die verwaltete Identität des Benutzers zurzeit nicht auf dessen Computer vorhanden ist. Dies erfordert eine Onsiteinstallation von Groove Server Manager, die für die Verwendung der Verzeichnisintegration mit Active Directory konfiguriert ist und nicht mit Microsoft Groove Enterprise Services funktioniert. Ferner wird die verwaltete Identität des Benutzers nur auf dessen Computer heruntergeladen, wenn eine neu installierte Version von SharePoint Workspace vom Benutzer gestartet wird und aktuell keine SharePoint Workspace-Konten auf dem Computer vorhanden sind. |
Pfad für Einstellungen:
Benutzerkonfiguration/Administrative Vorlagen/Microsoft SharePoint Workspace 2010/Groove Server Manager
Standardmäßig sind alle Richtlinien deaktiviert.
Sie brauchen mindestens Windows Vista oder höher zum Anwenden dieser Gruppenrichtlinien.
Näheres zu Gruppenrichtlinien finden Sie bei gruppenrichtlinien.de, eine komplette Liste der Office 2010 Einstellungen finden Sie ebenfalls dort.
