Note:

1. On a 64-bit OS, if a 64-bit version was installed and it needs to be upgraded with a 32-bit
Installer (possibly for using SEP), then the existing version needs to be un-installed and the
new 32-bit version will need to be installed afresh.

In order to uninstall the existing version, execute the run_uninstall.sh file which can be
extracted from the 7z file of the installer used for installation. In case the “.sh” file is not
available, then the same file can be extracted from the new installer and used for un-
installing the older version.

2. If the client is upgraded manually then internet is required to download necessary packages

3. Login with Ubuntu Client and access your application

Issue#: Upgrade notifier enhancement


Earlier upgrade notifier message does not come up while upgrading but now upgrade notifier for
confirmation of upgrade will show while upgrading from controller.

Upgrade through controller directly:


• User will get upgrade notifier confirmation massage upon client registration from controller.
• Upgrade notifier will be asked for once for confirmation of upgrade, otherwise upgrade
trigger will happen again on next date.
• Upon confirmation, download of latest client will get initiated from controller.
• Once download is complete upgrade of client will get initiated
• After successful upgrade system will reboot automatically

Upgrade through controller via HySecure gateway


• User will get upgrade notifier confirmation massage after login into client.
• Upgrade will start when client download is complete, and user must logout to initiate the
upgrade. Over the Internet download of the client will take more time as expected
depending upon the Internet speed.
• After successful upgrade system will reboot automatically

Issue#: Mobile registration link for dual factor authentication


Now user can be able to register through registration link from Accops Mobile HyID application for
mobile token generation.

HyWorks Client for Ubuntu 32-bit & 64-bit [v326045]


Following new features or enhancements are being delivered in HyWorks Ubuntu client 32-bit & 64-
bit
Feature# 9635 Automatic screen lock for idle sessions
The feature was required for all types of HyWorks deployments, where if user is idle on his endpoint,
the screen should get locked. The feature is especially useful for Linux based endpoints which are not
controller through group policies.
Now if user will keep its session idle for more than configured screen lock-out time, its session will be
locked and to unlock it must enter the password. The implementation requires followings:
1. Hotfix-4 is applied on HyWorks v3.2-SP2
2. Lock screen timeout is set as more than 0 in minutes
3. Latest client v326045 or later is running. The feature is released in Ubuntu-x64 client v326045
first.

Release Notes - Workspace Client for Ubuntu 32-bit (v329151) and 64-bit (v329150)

Complete internet blocking


When user is working via HySecure and following flag is enabled, then internet will be blocked on his
base machine. Use flag PERSIST_LOGOUT_NETWORK_BLOCK=true in verinfo.js file in HySecure
gateway to enable persistent internet block.

Issue#: Continuous client-patch download from HyWorks if required update file is


not available on client side
HyWorks client keep a copy of client update file to switch the protocol. In absence of this file client
initiates the download from Controller.
This update will not be required on latest HyWorks Client for Ubuntu x64 -v326045 and thus the
issue of continuous download will not occur.

Issue#: Device based CALs are not consumed when sessions are taken from
HyWorks endpoints
The issues have been fixed and new Ubuntu Client will consume appropriate CALs on accessing
session host servers.
