Autoload=2 loadpkg=1 Addpkg=FR
The option Autoload=2, ensures that the thin client uses the rmware installed on the server to upgrade, only if the rmware on the
thin client is older than the version on the server. The option LoadPkg species how to update the external packages. If LoadPkg is
not in the statement, it will inherit the value of
AutoLoad.
Base package is integrated into the ThinOS Lite rmware image. Installing the latest ThinOS Lite rmware image automatically installs
the latest version of these packages on the ThinOS Lite client. If you set AutoLoad=1 LoadPkg=0, the rmware is checked, but
the packages are not checked. The packages check is performed after rmware check. From ThinOS Lite 2.3, the external packages
update mechanism is changed. Some packages are default, and loaded according to value of LoadPkg. For example RTME. Some
packages need additional parameter AddPkg to add. For example, FR, Horizon, and TCX. The option AddPkg is for adding packages.
It depends on the value of LoadPkg. For more information about the INI parameter usage, see INI parameter chapter in Dell Wyse
ThinOS Lite Admin Guide.
5 Save the xen.ini le.
6 On the ThinOS Lite client desktop, navigate to System Setup > Central Conguration > General.
7 In the General tab, enter the IP address of the le server or directory. For example: https://IPaddress/wyse.
NOTE: You can also use DHCP option tags 161 and 162 to congure the ThinOS Lite client, le server and path information.
You must create these options on your DHCP server, congure them with the correct server information, and enable the
DHCP server scope in your environment.
8 Click OK.
9 Restart the thin client and wait until the auto-installation of packages is complete.
