1. Install an IncrediBuild Agent using the new IncrediBuild install option named "Create a single-use Virtual Machine Image" on the image from which you wish to automatically provision and de-provision virtual machine instances.
   
   When installing IncrediBuild on the image from which VMs are to be provisioned, check the "Custom" install option→ "Create a single-use Virtual Machine Image".
   
   1. Alternatively, it is possible to use the Silent installation mode to install the SingleUseVM using the following command line:   IBSetupConsole.exe /Install /Components=Agent,oneuse /Coordinator=YourCoordHostname
2. Finish the IncrediBuild install process (in the appropriate setup page, make sure to choose the Coordinator on which your IncrediBuild license is loaded).
3. Save your image.
4. Verify your Single-use VMs Coordinator settings:
   
   1. Configure the timeout period after which a single-use VM that is offline to the Coordinator will be considered as de-provisioned. The default timeout period is 30 seconds. 
   2. Choose whether the Coordinator will automatically allocate available solutions to single-use VMs. The default behavior of the Coordinator is to automatically allocate available solutions to single-use VMs.
   
5. Provision a new virtual machine instance using this image → this will result in the Coordinator automatically assigning the appropriate core packages and any available solution to this virtual machine.
6. Upon destroying this virtual machine, the core package and IncrediBuild solutions will automatically be released to the IncrediBuild license pool.
7. This specific (destroyed) VM instance will no longer be able to register with the IncrediBuild infrastructure. In order to connect a new virtual machine based on the above image to the IncrediBuild infrastructure, simply provision a new virtual machine from the image.

• This feature is only available for IncrediBuild Enterprise Edition users.
• The number of concurrent "single-use" VMs that can be connected to the Coordinator is only limited by the number of IncrediBuild Agents available in your IncrediBuild license.
• In the current phase of this feature, if a VM is not allocated with a core package or a solution due to insufficient core packages or solutions in your IncrediBuild license, there won't be a specific indication for that once the VM is provisioned and connects to the Coordinator. The Agent will simply either be un-subscribed or won't be assigned with the core packages or solutions that are not available.
• A single-use VM will be considered destroyed once it's offline to the Coordinator for a longer duration than the timeout that was defined.It is possible to use the Silent installation mode to install the SingleUseVM: IBSetupConsole.exe /Install /Components=Agent,oneuse /Coordinator=YourCoordHostname
