Introduction

This guide provides instructions to migrate from Ubuntu and ThinOS 9.1.3129 or later versions to ThinOS 2411 using Wyse Management Suite 4.0 or later versions.

The migration process includes the following tasks:

1. Register the Thin Client with Wyse Management Suite by automating the discovery of the Wyse Management Suite server and Group Registration Token using DHCP or DNS records.
2. Download the ThinOS firmware from the Support | Dell site—see Download the ThinOS firmware, BIOS, and application packages.
3. Configure the ThinOS 9.x-based device using Wyse Management Suite version 3.7 or later versions—see Configuring a ThinOS 9.x client using Wyse Management Suite.
