Windows 10: Virtual Machine can't be joined to Azure AD after Sysprep

Hi All,Need your expert advise. I have a Windows Virtual Machine image prepared with Sysprep. The image has setupcomplete.cmd where provisioning package ppkg does Azure AD domain enrollment. It works fine for laptop or desktop system, but not for VM. When I deploy the Sysprep-image with this provisionong package, Azure AD see it as one machine. Whatever VMs are deployed, Azure AD see it as one the same machine, seems some GUID or SID not resets during Sysprep. But no any issues for physical Active Directory. The issue only for Azure AD. I found this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/a

Joining a Windows 10 Pro machine to Azure AD without linking/registering an employees email address to that computer

I have been researching for a few weeks now trying to figure out how to join Azure AD for new purchased machines when setting up the machine.

I have two different scenarios that would be joining azure AD.

1. Shipping a machine that has not been setup yet directly to an employee's location. I have to walk through step by step on how to configure settings, join the azure domain, and how to download a program or two. Is their a Microsoft process that I can put
information into that knows that computer needs to join our azure domain? I do not wish to sign in with my credentials to join the azure domain each time we order a new computer.

2. If my company has a windows 10 Home edition machine that we would want to add to our Azure AD, We purchase a windows 10 pro license and activate it under the settings. our next step is going into the settings to join an azure AD domain through a Microsoft
account, however I do not wish to register my account on every computer in our environment. Is their a way to have this computer join azure AD with some sort of a token or activation process? The second issue to this scenario is after joining the azure AD
with my credentials the local admin account is still active and I need to then go through the process of logging in and removing this account.

What would be the best process of joining my environments machines to our Azure AD network without having to register my account with each computer?

 

Image W10 workstations for Azure AD join?

Hi All,

I want to image Windows 10; but more importantly I need to join Azure AD 'Out of the Box'!

I don't have a 'master' Azure AD account. I am not even sure that such a thing exits, e.g.: the Administrator account on a standard Active Directory Domain.

Where should I be looking for configuration, where it comes to Azure AD automatic joining?

My thoughts are PowerShell DST! But that is just a rumour.

Any suggestions would be amazing.

Regards,

Davo

When joining a machine to Azure AD it requires an active Azure AD account to do this which be default is all. So i would leave that setting and just have the users join their own machines to Azure.

So you don't need to use your own account at all.

"Users may join devices to Azure AD - This setting enables you to select the users who can join devices to Azure AD. The default is All."

Does that answer your question?
