Using Composer without joining virtual desktops to Active Directory Domain

[caddo]

Hi all,

as far as you know, is it possible to leverage Composer and keeping virtual desktops in a workgroup?

I tried using sysprep instead of quickprep during the Desktop Pool creation wizard but I get a provisioning error stating that the Administrator account used by QuickPrep doesn't have authorization in AD.

I don't understand this message as like I said I didn't use QuickPrep, maybe it's just that Composer is not built for this.

Anyone can help me with this? Thank you!

You have to have a domain for QuikPrep. The machine doesn't have to be joined to the domain prior to being cloned, but it will be joined when it is cloned. If you want to do clones that are not joined to a domain you'd have to use SysPrep.

That's what I treid but it seems to work only with Full Clones, if I use Sysprep with Composer I get a QuickPrep Error (!!!)

That's the funny story, I use Syspre and I get a QuickPrep error.
