USB Redirection in a VDI session

Upgrading to the ThinOS 9.1.3112 eliminates the local USB driver dependency on the USB redirection feature.

From ThinOS 9.1.3112 onwards, you can directly use the USB redirection feature in a VDI session without attaching the USB driver installed locally on your thin client. The local USB driver is automatically detached when using USB redirection in the VDI session. As a result, the USB redirection in the VDI session is fast and more reliable.

After upgrade, if you are configuring the USB settings on your local thin client, do either of the following:
  • Using Global Connection Settings:
    1. On the local ThinOS client, go to the Global Connection Settings > Session on local ThinOS UI.
    2. Verify if the USB device redirection is selected, and click OK.
  • Using Admin Policy Tool:
    1. On the Admin Policy Tool, go to Advanced > Session Settings > Global Session Settings > Local Resources and USB redirection.
    2. Ensure that the USB redirection option is enabled, and click Save and Publish.

Apply these setting changes when you are using the USB Redirection for the first time, after you upgrade from ThinOS 9.1.2X or older versions to 9.1.3112. The setting changes are not required after the first instance. If you are configuring the USB settings using Wyse Management Suite policy settings, you do not have to enable the USB redirection option again after upgrade.

There are no visible UI changes on the ThinOS client. However, the USB redirection speed is improved in the VDI session.
