User Level Configuration Profile - Specifically Mobility

I'd like to move our users Profiles to a secondary partition. I've been trying various scripts with limited success. When I came across the "Mobility" option in Configuration Profiles I thought I was onto a good thing.

I can only set this option up under User Level not Computer.

The issue I'm having is the first time a user logs in their profile is being created on the primary partition. Subsequent logins are then directed to the second partition.

Is there a way to apply this profile at the first login?

I found the suggestion by dzmudzki - https://jamfnation.jamfsoftware.com/discussion.html?id=4855

However now when I login it's creating a "phantom" user profile on the primary partition while creating the proper profile on the secondary partition.

Worked it out. AD Bind Plugin had the option "Force local home directory on startup disk". Once I unticked this option everything worked as expected.

Do you set up Home Sync with the config profile? If so, do the client computers respect your folder preferences at login? Whenever I configure Home Sync with a user-level config profile, the client computers start syncing the entire home folder instead of only the folders I define in the profile. Background syncs respect the defined folder limits.
