When the Pull OS Image command is sent, the client device receives an image pull request from the server. An image pull request message
is displayed on the client side. Click either of the following options:
• Pull after sysprep—The device restarts, and logs in to the operating system in a disabled state. Run the custom sysprep. After the
custom sysprep is complete, the device boots to Merlin operating system and the image pull operation is performed.
NOTE: This option is applicable for Windows Embedded Standard devices.
• Pull now—The device boots to the Merlin operating system and the image pull operation is performed.
Upgrading ThinLinux 1.x to 2.1 and later versions
If you want to pull a customized image from TL 2.x before you upgrade, you must prepare the ThinLinux 2,x and then upgrade the
ThinLinux 1.x image.
Prepare the ThinLinux 2.x image
Use Wyse Management Suite version 1.4 to upgrade the ThinLinux build version 2.0.19 or 2.1 to 2.2.
To prepare the ThinLinux 2.x image, do the following:
1 Go to www.dell.com/support.
2 Click Product Support, enter the Service Tag of your thin client, and then press Enter.
NOTE
: If you do not have Service Tag, manually browse for your thin client model.
3 Click Drivers and downloads.
4 From the Operating system drop-down list, select ThinLinux.
5 Download the merlin_nonpxe-4.0.1-0 0.04.amd64.deb and wda_3.4.6-05_amd64.tar add-on.
6 Copy the downloaded add-on to <drive C>/wms/localrepo/repository/thinClientsApps/.
7 On the thin client running ThinLinux 2.x, go to Settings > Management > Wyse Device Agent.
8 Register the device to the Wyse Management Suite server.
9 Close the Settings window.
NOTE
: If the Settings window is not closed, the Prole Locked error is displayed after you deploy the image.
10 Log in to the Wyse Management Suite console.
11 Create and deploy app policy for merlin_nonpxe-4.0.1-0 0.04.amd64.deb and wda_3.4.6-05_amd64.tar add-ons.
12 Reboot the thin client.
13 Log in to the Wyse Management Suite server.
14 Go to the Device page and ensure that the Merlin and WDA versions are updated.
15 Click the registered device, and go to More Actions > Pull OS Image.
The Pull OS Image window is displayed.
16 Enter the name of the image.
17 From the File repository drop-down list, select the le repository.
18 Select the type of pull operation that you want to perform.
• Default—Select the OS+Recovery check box and pull the image (Compressed/UnCompressed).
• Advanced—Select the template Compress_OS_Recovery_Commandsxml/uncompress_OS_Recovery_CommandsXml and pull
the image.
NOTE
:
• If you are using Wyse Management Suite 1.3 remote repository, then the xml le is not available in the repository. You must upgrade
Wyse Management Suite to 1.4 to access the le.
• Recovery Pull operation does not preserve the user settings.
