AD user accounts on a second partition

[nickbibassis]

Users are running 10.5.2, authenticating against an AD server.

To speed up restoring the entire OS or pushing major updates, I’d like to set up a second partition for user home folders. I can point existing accounts without a problem. How do you instruct the system to create profiles for new users on to the second partition?

Thanks.

What do you mean by createmobileaccount command? Our users have Mobile Managed accounts.

Chasing after them to move their profile after is a non-starter.

We’re not ready for network home folders, need gigabit to everyone first. Looking to push quarterly application and OS updates. Any suggestions?

Thanks.
