How to distribute Mirage Client with logon script

One of the things that Horizon Mirage doesn’t give you out of the box is the ability to deliver the Mirage client to clients in a centralized manned, which is kinda awkward for a solution that tries to centralize everything.

I solved this problem with a logon script i use for client deployments; you can use and tweak my script as you want but don’t blame me if it doesn’t work for you 🙂

Here’s the thing:

@echo off

rem echo Detecting OS processor type

if "%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%"=="AMD64" goto 64BIT

:32BIT
rem echo 32-bit OS
msiexec /norestart /quiet /l* "\\path_to_log\%COMPUTERNAME%-MirageClient.log" /i "\\path_to_setup\MirageClient.x86.15875.msi" serverip=<your_mirage_server> usessltransport=false
goto END

:64BIT
rem echo 64-bit OS
msiexec /norestart /quiet /l* "\\path_to_log\%COMPUTERNAME%-MirageClient.log" /i "\\path_to_setup\MirageClient.x64.15875.msi" serverip=<your_mirage_server> usessltransport=false
:END

Notice that the setup files have to be on a network share as well as the location of the log files where everyone have write access.
