Release Notes

NOTE: We can restart the Failed Jobs only once, as a new job is created each time that a failed job is restarted. This is
applicable for WMS Global Admin, WMS Custom Role (if job permissions are assigned), and Group Admin for specific group.
Automatic device unregister
Autounregister device rule is force unregistered from Wyse Management Suite. Force unregister happens when the device is not
communicating to Wyse Management Suite after the number of days that are configured in the rule. The device keeps the Wyse
Management Suite connectivity details to communicate with the Wyse Management Suite. When the device comes up next and
attempts to connect to the Wyse Management Suite, the request is rejected and the device goes to an unregistered state. This
is a Group-Based rule which uses the same workflow of device health notification. A check happens ever twenty-four hours for
device health notification. For every tenant, the rule fetches the list of groups to be auto unregistered. The devices which fail to
check-in as per the rule are unregistered.
To create and enable Auto-Register Rule, go to WMS Portal > Rules > Failed Check-In.
Wyse Management Suite Dell generic client device type support for
unified device field conversion
This feature is applicable when you buy Dell clients with Dell Ubuntu operating system and then want to convert to either
Hybrid or ThinOS clients. The Ubuntu client operating systems have Dell Client Agent Enabler installed along with the operating
system, and an optional conversion image is present in the recovery partition. Administrators configure the Wyse Management
Suite environment for auto discovery or manual registration. When the client is powered on, the Dell Client Agent Enabler
discovers the Wyse Management Suite server, registers the device, and checks-in. The Dell Client Agent Enabler registers to
Wyse Management Suite as a generic client.
The Dell Client Agent enables you to do the following actions using the Wyse Management Suite 3.2 Generic Device type:
● Deploy Real-Time commands such as Query, Restart, Shutdown, and Wake-on-LAN.
● Device Pull Log command
● Convert to Hybrid Client command using Jobs, Devices, or Device Details page.
● Deploy Advanced Application Policy.
● Deploy Standard Application Policy
● Deploy Generic Client to Dell Hybrid Client conversion policy.
Generic devices can be converted to Dell Hybrid Client devices in two ways:
● Wyse Management Suite administrator can push the Convert to Hybrid Client command to convert Generic devices
from Jobs, Devices, and Device Details page.
● By using Dell Hybrid Client conversion policies (by pushing Dell Hybrid Client bundles or ISO image files).
Before the device conversion is initiated, Dell Client Agent Enabler backs up the Wyse Management Suite connection data and
then triggers the Dell Hybrid Client installer. The Dell Hybrid Client installer completes the conversion and reboots the device
automatically. After the reboot, the device boots into the converted operating system and checks into the Wyse Management
Suite server.
To convert Dell Generic Clients that run the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, follow the below steps:
● For Dell Hybrid Client 1.0 or 1.1, you must push the Dell Hybrid Client 1.0 or 1.1 bundle package files using the application
policy.
● For Dell Hybrid Client 1.5, you must push the Dell Hybrid Client ISO package using the application policy. Initiate the
OS-image upgrade tool os-upgrade_1.1-10_amd64.deb package, and then push the Dell Hybrid Client 1.5 ISO package file.
To convert Dell Generic Clients that run the Ubuntu 20.04 LTS to Dell Hybrid Client 1.5, you must push the Dell Hybrid Client 1.5
bundle package files using the application policy.
