Dell Wyse Management Suite Version 3.7 and 3.8 Administrator Guide

Installing or upgrading Wyse Device Agents on ThinLinux and Linux clients

Prerequisites

  • To install Wyse Device Agents on Dell Wyse 3040 Thin Clients with ThinLinux version 2.0, image version 2.0.14, and Wyse Device Agent version 3.0.7, you must install the wda3040_3.0.10-01_amd64.deb file, and then install the wda_3.2.12-01_amd64.tar file.

  • You must install the platform utility add-on and Wyse Device Agent add-on for Linux thin clients. You can install wda_x.x.x.tar file for ThinLinux thin clients.

About this task

You can install or upgrade add-ons by using any of the following options:
  • Using INI parameters
  • Add-ons Manager
  • RPM commands

Steps

  1. If you are using a public cloud or a remote repository on a private cloud, copy the RPM files to the thinClientApps folder of the repository. By default, the latest Wyse Device Agents and platform utility RPMs for Linux and ThinLinux clients are available in the local repository.
  2. Go to the Jobs page and schedule a job to upgrade the platform utility add-on.
    You must wait until the platform utility add-on is successfully installed on your thin client.
    NOTE Install a platform utility add-on first, and then install a Wyse Device Agent add-on. You cannot install the latest Wyse Device Agents before installing the latest platform utility add-on.
  3. On the Jobs page, schedule a job to upgrade Wyse Device Agent on the client.
    NOTE The Linux client restarts after installing the Wyse Device Agent add-on version 2.0.11.
