Switching devices from Wyse Device Manager to
Wyse Management Suite
After you import all the devices from Wyse Device Manager (WDM) to Wyse Management Suite, the device registration status in the Wyse
Management Suite console is displayed as Pre-registered.
Deploy an RSP package to switch the Windows Embedded Standard, Windows 10 IoT Enterprise, ThinLinux, and SUSE Linux devices from
WDM to Wyse Management Suite. Deploying an RSP package changes the connectivity from WDM to Wyse Management Suite and
upgrades the Wyse Device Agent (WDA) to a newer version.
Deploy an INI parameter to switch the ThinOS devices from WDM to Wyse Management Suite.
NOTE:
• For each device in the group, the device is pre-registered to the group. Pre-registration fails if the MAC address exists in the
tenant. If the import data has devices with a duplicate MAC address, only the rst device with the MAC address is successfully
imported.
• Wyse Management Suite matches a device to an existing pre-registered device using the MAC address. If the MAC address is
correct, the group ownerId of the pre-registered device is returned. If the MAC address is incorrect or unavailable, then the device
is placed in an unmanaged group.
After you switch the devices from WDM to Wyse Management Suite, the device registration status in the Wyse Management Suite
console is changed to Registered.
