Dell Wyse Management Suite Version 1.3 Deployment Guide

Remote repository

Wyse Management Suite allows you to have local and remote repositories for applications, operating system images and so on. If the user accounts are distributed across geographies, it would be efficient to have a separate local repository for each of the distributed user account so the devices can download images from its local repository. This flexibility is provided with WMS_Repo.exe software. The WMS_Repo.exe is a Wyse Management Suite file repository software that helps to create distributed remote repositories which can be registered with Wyse Management Suite. The WMS_Repo.exe is available only for Pro license subscribers only.

The server requirements to install Wyse Management Suite repository software are:
  • Windows 2012 R2 or Windows 2016 Server
  • 4 CPU
  • 8 GB RAM
