Access Wyse Management Suite file repository
File repositories are places where files are stored and organized. Wyse Management Suite has two types of repositories:
● Local Repository—During the Wyse Management Suite private cloud installation, provide the local repository path in
the Wyse Management Suite installer. After the installation, go to Portal Admin > File Repository and select the local
repository. Click the Edit option to view and edit the repository settings.
● Wyse Management Suite Repository—Log in to Wyse Management Suite public cloud, go to ,Portal Admin > File
Repository and download the Wyse Management Suite repository installer. After the installation, register the Wyse
Management Suite repository to Wyse Management Suite Management server by providing the required information.
You can enable the Automatic Replication option to replicate files that are added to any of the file repositories to other
repositories. When you enable this option, an alert message is displayed. You can select the Replicate existing files check box
to replicate the existing files to your file repositories.
Replicate existing file option is applicable if the repository is already registered. When a new repository is registered, then all
the files are copied to the new repository. You can view the file replication status in the Events page.
The Image Pull templates are not replicated automatically to other repositories. You must copy these files manually.
File Replication feature is supported only on repositories from Wyse Management Suite 2.0 and later versions.
