Importing data inventory

Data import is the process of importing data inventories from Wyse Device Manager (WDM) to Wyse Management Suite.

In the WDM Import Task screen, you can perform each task independently. However, you must import the Windows-based WCM

resources from WDM before importing the view and Windows proles.

For each group and its subgroup:

• Wyse Management Suite creates a group with a group token enabled. The group token and group description are generated

automatically.

• A single transaction is allowed to import view and the Windows-based proles. To import the data again after importing groups, devices

and proles, you must roll back the transaction using the Rollback option.

CAUTION: The Rollback option erases all the data imported to Wyse Management Suite.

After the rollback activity is complete, you can import the data again using the View and WES Proles option.

• Wyse Management Suite creates a group level conguration policy for the created group prole.

• The server creates an event of the import task that includes the number of groups, devices, and proles.

Importing RSP packages

To import the RSP packages to Wyse Management Suite:

1 Start the Wyse Management Suite Import Tool as explained—see Getting started with Wyse Management Suite Import Tool.

2 In the RSP Packages section, click START IMPORT.

A list of RSP packages available in WDM is displayed. Each RSP package displays the following attributes:

• NAME—Displays the name of the RSP package.

• TYPE—Displays the type of the RSP package. Only RSP packages of the application and image type are listed.

• OS—Displays the operating system associated with the RSP package.

• STATUS—Displays the import status of the RSP package.

3 Select the RSP packages that you want to import, and click Import.

NOTE

• You can use the Search box to search an RSP package in the list. Type the name of the RSP package in the Search box, and

press Enter.

• You can click the respective column headers to sort the objects in ascending or descending order.

The import status of a package is displayed as In-Progress. The time taken to import the RSP packages varies from minutes to hours

depending on the size of the RSP package. The import status of a package is changed to Imported after the package is imported to

the Wyse Management Suite repository. The import status of a package is changed to Failed if the package import is unsuccessful.

For more information about the import status screen—see Viewing import status of RSP packages.
