After having a Wyse device’s motherboard replaced, Wyse Management Suite may fail to detect the unit during redeployment.
Affected Product:
Wyse Management Suite
When a Wyse device’s motherboard is replaced, Wyse Management Suite requires the Wyse device to be unregistered and then deleted. This is because the new motherboard has a new MAC address. Wyse Management Suite may fail to detect the device until this takes place.
To unregister and delete the Wyse device from Wyse Management Suite:
- Log in to Wyse Management Suite.
- Click the Devices tab.
