📦I use a diskless boot (PXE) server, how do I upgrade ggLeap?

Many ggLeap customers use a PXE-boot server to push game-client and system updates.


Follow these steps to update your ggLeap client image.



Prerequisites âś…


  • A PC configured as Superclient (with Keep Writeback enabled)
  • “Can update client version” permission in ggLeap
  • All other target machines powered off (recommended)



Step-by-Step Upgrade Guide


  1. Enable Superclient Mode/Keep Writeback mode

On one of your workstations, turn on Superclient mode/enable Keep Writeback.

Note the machine’s name or ID—you’ll use it again.

  1. Open Client Version Settings


  • In the Dashboard, find your Superclient PC’s row.
  • Click the three-dot Ellipsis ⋯ on the right.
  • Choose Settings → Change client version.
  1. Select Desired ggLeap Version


  • The version page will load, with your Superclient already pre-selected.
  • Click Change Version, pick the new version from the list, and click Apply.
  1. Verify Upgrade on Superclient


  • Allow the Superclient to reboot and finish updating.
  • At the ggLeap login screen, confirm the version number in the lower-center area.
  1. Save and Exit Superclient Mode


  • Power off the Superclient PC.
  • Disable Superclient mode, apply or save the writeback to your OS image.
  1. Roll Out to Other Machines


  • Power on the next machine (ensure it’s off before starting).
  • Repeat Step 2 → Step 4 to update it to the same client version.
  • Continue until all target PCs match the Superclient version.



Alternative Access


You can also reach the version settings via:


Settings → Client Configuration → Version



Important Notes ⚠️


  • Version Consistency

Always select the same version on every PC. Mismatched versions will cause boot loops.

  • Machine Power State

Turning off non-Superclient PCs before you start prevents premature update triggers.

  • PXE Variations

These steps apply to most PXE setups—your environment may differ slightly.
