Hi,

Create your master-disk as IMG and install all you need to it.
Then create an IBV device using the IMG as the base file for each client.
Set it to Auto-restored backup mode, so all changes will be cleaned up on the client's disconnect.

When you need to update your installation, disconnect all the clients, mount the IMG as ImageFile R/W, update the software and restore your configuration.
It's possible to create an additional config file for the maintaining purposes and restart the StarWind Service with the config for fast switching to the update mode.
Best regards,
Valeriy
