Creating a Golden Image for VDI

This page describes how to configure the HYPR Passwordless client for golden images when using a non-persistent VDI environment.

🚧

Uninstall the Previous Version

Make sure to uninstall any previous version of the HYPR Passwordless client before setting up the golden image.

1. Execute the installer with the appropriate configuration parameters. Include the HYPRNONPERSISTENTVDI=1 parameter to signify you're deploying to a non-persistent environment.

Examples

Calling msiexec on the command line:

msiexec.exe /qn /i WorkforceAccess_x64.msi HYPRAPPID="WindowsUnlock" HYPRRP="https://my.host.com/rp"
HYPRSUPPORT="[email protected]" HYPRHASH="LeM8Xn...G1RSP91w=" HYPRINSTALLTOKEN="0f03f...77cb6e" 
HYPRTEMPLATE="HYPRUser" HYPRNONPERSISTENTVDI=1

Using the installer UI:

2. Reboot the computer when the installation is complete.
3. Open a command prompt and execute Sysprep /generalize /shutdown to generalize the image.

Installation Machine SID or Computer Name

For the HYPR Passwordless client to configure itself correctly on a VM created from a golden image, the non-master image must have either a different Machine SID or a different Computer Name than its master image.

The HYPR Passwordless client is compatible with any VDI software package which modifies either the Machine SID or the Computer Name when a new VM is created.

4. Create and distribute the golden image.
