Installation & license registration

Introduction

This guide is designed to walk you through your first Thinfinity® Workspace installation. We will focus on the most streamlined installation process, which involves deploying all components on a single server. Although this simplified installation is not recommended for production environments, it serves as an ideal approach for testing and evaluation purposes.

This configuration allows you to establish connections to both the localhost (where Thinfinity is installed) and other machines within the network, providing a solid foundation to explore the capabilities of this innovative virtual desktop solution.

Download and install

1. Download the latest version of Thinfinity Workspace from the product download page.

2. Run the installer on the designated computer and in the first dialog of the wizard click Next. 

3. Carefully read the End-User License Agreement, select I accept the terms of the License Agreement then click Next to proceed.

 

4. The installation options are presented: For this example, select the default option, All Components and click Next. 

1. All Components: Choose this option for a standalone installation. Both a Thinfinity Services and Gateway Services installation coexist in the same computer. Also, this installation can work together with others in a Scaling and load balancing configuration.
2. Broker and HTML5 Services: Choose this option to use a Scaling and load balancing configuration. A Thinfinity Services installation works together with at least one gateway installation and other Thinfinity Services installation(s).
   
3. Reverse Gateway Only: Choose this option only if you are using a Scaling and load balancing configuration. A Gateway Services installation works together with two or more Thinfinity Services installations.
   
4. Workspace Agent: This option allows the creation an RDP connection that doesn't require opening any inbound ports.

This versatile installer can also be used to deploy Thinfinity in load-balanced scenarios, with multiple machines that can scale across various tenants and networks. To explore advanced installation options and learn how to implement them within your organization, we encourage you to book a demo. 
Also, to explore our adaptable deployment options encompassing On-Premises, Hybrid, and Cloud, schedule a call with one of our specialists.

5. Choose the destination folder, then click Next to proceed.

6. The confirmation screen indicates that the installation process was successfully completed. 

Serial number

Launch the Thinfinity Configuration Manager. A prompt will appear asking if you wish to implement changes to your device. Select Yes.

Getting a Trial serial number 

If you're interested in trying the product before making a commitment, you can generate a new Trial serial number directly from the Product Registration Wizard. During the process, the registration wizard will provide you with different options to choose from.

 

Requesting a Community serial number

To get a Community Edition Serial Number input your Name and Last Name into the Registration Name field and your Email on the respective field, then click Next to continue.

You will receive an email from contact@cybelesoft.com with your serial number. Please ensure to check your spam folder in case it's redirected there. In the Register Serial Number page input the serial number composed of a series of 32 alphanumeric characters separated by hyphens.

If you installed the License Server administrator, enter the License Server URL. Otherwise, leave this blank. Click Next to continue.

Once the serial number is entered and accepted, a success message will appear indicating successful activation. Click Finish to complete the process.
