Using existing WDM views
To create groups and devices using one of the existing Wyse Device Manager (WDM) views:
1 On the View and WES Proles screen, click the Create radio button.
A drop-down list with the groups assigned to the selected view (except All Devices) is displayed. By default, all the groups under the
view are selected for migration.
2 From the drop-down list, select a view and click Next.
NOTE:
• You can only select a view with nine or less levels of the group hierarchy.
• If there are group levels with empty values, then the group levels are renamed to NotSet. However, if the group levels
are missing in WDM, then they are assigned to the available parent.
• If there are resources for wallpaper and wireless in prole/conguration, then the resource le names are prexed with
the conguration package name in WDM followed by underscore. For example,
packagename_resourcename.
3 Select any of the following options based on your requirement:
• Groups—By default, the Groups check box is selected.
• Devices—If you want to import devices that are already associated to the selected view in WDM, then select the Devices check
box, and click Next.
• WES Proles—If you want to import a Windows-based prole that is already assigned to the selected view in WDM, select the
WES Proles check box, and click Next.
The screen displays the group hierarchy with devices and proles that are assigned to each group.
NOTE
: You can select both Devices and WES Proles check boxes if you want to assign both devices and WES proles
to the selected view.
All conguration assignments in WDM are selected, and you cannot make any modications. Actual assignment of device conguration
to specic groups can be performed only using the Build option. For more information—see Using default WDM group types.
Follow step 4 to continue the import process—see Importing view and Windows-based proles.
Using WDM default group types
To create groups and devices using Wyse Device Manager (WDM) default group types, or to create a particular group hierarchy in Wyse
Management Suite and that grouping is not assigned as a view in WDM:
1 On the View and WES Proles screen, click the Build radio button.
A drop-down menu with all the default group types in WDM is displayed. The order determines the group hierarchy structure.
To create the group hierarchy, you can select a maximum of nine levels. The Default Policy Group is available as a default option in the
Wyse Management Suite. The group hierarchy is part of Default Policy Group, and therefore the total hierarchy depth in Wyse
Management Suite can be maximum of 10 including Default Policy Group. After you dynamically create a group hierarchy using WDM
default groups, you can assign the Conguration Packages to the group.
