The information in this article applies to admins on Dropbox Standard, Business, Advanced, Business Plus, and Enterprise.
Administrators can build an operating system (OS) image with software and tools pre-loaded to use as a template or “golden image”. This image can be cloned to a group of workstations for rapid deployment.
Follow the steps in this article to avoid any unexpected issues when cloning an OS image with Dropbox installed.
Before making an image of the OS, remove the user specific Dropbox files. This forces Dropbox to create unique keys and instance data for each user on the cloned machines.
When a user starts the Dropbox app on a cloned machine, the Dropbox user directory is automatically recreated for that individual user.
