2 Getting started with Wyse Management Suite This section provides information about the general features to get you started as an administrator and manage thin clients using Wyse Management Suite.
Logging out To log out from the management console, do the following: 1. Click the account link at the upper-right corner of the management console. 2. Click Sign out. Prerequisites to deploy Wyse Management Suite on the private cloud Table 4. Prerequisites Description 10,000 devices or less 50,000 devices or less 120,000 devices or less Wyse Management Suite – Software repository Operating system Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2016, or Windows Server 2019 Standard.
NOTE: WMS.exe and WMS_Repo.exe must be installed on two different servers. You must install the Wyse Management Suite remote repository for the public cloud. For private cloud, you must install the Wyse Management Suite remote repository and local repository. The software can be installed on a physical or a virtual machine. Also, it is not necessary that the software repository and the Wyse Management Suite server have the same operating system.
When you create and publish the policy, the configuration parameters are deployed to all the devices in that group including the subgroups. After a policy is published and propagated to the devices, the settings are not sent again to the devices until you make a change. New devices that are registered, receive the configuration policy that is effective for the group to which it was registered. This includes the parameters that are inherited from the global group and intermediate level groups.
NOTE: You must import the certificate to a thin client running ThinOS operating system using a USB drive or FTP paths. ● Secured environments—To mitigate the risk against rouge DHCP or DNS server for new device discovery, administratos must configure Wyse Management Suite server using CA-signed certificates. The device can fetch the Wyse Management Suite server URL from the DHCP/DNS records and perform the CA validation.
3 Installing or upgrading Wyse Device Agent This section provides information about how to install or upgrade Wyse Device Agent on your thin clients, such as Windows Embedded Standard, Linux, and ThinLinux devices by using Wyse Management Suite. ● Windows Embedded Standard devices—Wyse Device Agent version 1.4.x can be downloaded from support.dell.com.
Steps 1. After the WDA.exe file is copied to the repository, go to Apps and Data, and create a standard application policy with this package—see Create and deploy standard application policy to thin clients. NOTE: Advanced application policy is supported only from Wyse Device Agent 14.x onwards. It is recommended that you use the standard application policy when you upgrade Wyse Device Agent from 14.x. You can also use the advanced application policy for upgrading Wyse Device Agent from 14.
4 Installing or upgrading DCA-Enabler on Ubuntu devices This section provides information about how to install or upgrade DCA-Enabler on Ubuntu devices. Topics: • • Install DCA-Enabler on Ubuntu devices Upgrade DCA-Enabler on Ubuntu devices Install DCA-Enabler on Ubuntu devices DCA-Enabler is preloaded in most of the Dell Ubuntu platforms.
