following:
NOTE: You can install or upgrade add-ons by using any of the following options:
• Using INI parameters
• Add-ons Manager
• RPM commands
1. If you are using a public cloud or a remote repository on a private cloud, copy the RPM files to the thinClientApps folder of the
repository. By default, the latest Wyse Device Agents and platform utility RPMs for Linux and ThinLinux clients are available in local
repository.
2. Go to the Apps and Data page, and create two application policies—for platform utility add-on and Wyse Device Agent add-on.
NOTE: To upgrade these add-ons, use a normal policy. This is because the Advanced App policy function is
supported only for Wyse Device Agent version 2.0.11 and 2.0.24 onwards on Linux and ThinLinux clients.

and Wyse Device Agent version 3.0.7, you must install wda3040_3.0.10-01_amd64.deb file, and then install
wda_3.2.12-01_amd64.tar file.
4. Go to the Jobs page and schedule a job to upgrade the platform utility add-on.
You must wait until the platform utility add-on is successfully installed on your thin client.
NOTE:
Install a platform utility add-on first, and then install a Wyse Device Agent add-on. You cannot install the
latest Wyse Device Agents before installing the latest platform utility add-on.
