I used the --goldimage flag during the install process as expected and each of the units show up in Central as being protected. However, when the end user logs out and the unit is refreshed, the "old" unit remains and a new unit with the same name appears. Is there a script or command that I can add to our log out script that would unregister these units on the fly or will I have to manually remove them from time to time? It's not difficult, but we live in a state of being over our license count after 24 hours and the count increases with every log out.
How to remove unused devices from Sophos Central – Sophos News might offer some ideas. It is quite old now but I guess this was one answer back then.
Can you provide an SDU from the Gold Image and one of the instances at fault?

When your machines are being spun up - are they renamed? Or do they keep the name of the Gold Image machine?
Actually also wondering if you can confirm the version of the Core Agent you have running on Gold Image?
