ThinOS 9.x firmware and BIOS file upload to cloud Wyse
Management Suite
The operator can upload and edit the ThinOS firmware, BIOS, and packages from the new Administration > Cloud WMS Repo
tab. Wyse Management Suite supports the new platform type. The firmware should contain necessary descriptions, and BIOS
should contain the platform information. Once the firmware and BIOS is added, only description is editable. However, description
is required. Tenant cannot modify anything for the package which is uploaded by operator.
Tenant admin: Cloud WMS firmware and BIOS files show up automatically under Apps & Data > OS Image Repository >
ThinOS tab along with any other user uploaded files. Not more than ten files can be uploaded to the public cloud. User uploaded
files can be edited or removed. However, the cloud Wyse Management Suite firmware and BIOS cannot be edited or removed by
administrators.
Secure LDAP improvements
Improvements have been made to import the public key of the certificate files to trust store for a secure LDAP communication
in Wyse Management Suite 3.2.
When server certificate is uploaded during the initial setup, a tomcat restart initiates. This should be optimized after certificate
is imported to trust store. After the on-premise installation, you can import the server certificate and configure secure LDAP by
updating the certificate in the OOBE screen.
After the on-premise installation with a single tenant, go to Portal Administration > Setup to import the public key of the
certificate to the trust store. For multi-tenant setup, go to WMS Operator Administration > System Settings > LDAPS.
Once you import the certificate, tomcat restarts automatically. When the server certificate is uploaded in OOBE, automatic
restart of tomcat initiates.

number of devices. The schedule device commands are as below:
● Lock (Wyse Management Suite 3.2)
● Send Message (Wyse Management Suite 3.2)
● Factory Reset (Wyse Management Suite 3.2)
● Shutdown
● Restart
● Re-Image
● Sync-BIOS password
● Query
● Lock—You can lock the devices for a group of devices which are connected to VDI session. This option is applicable for
ThinOS 8.x and ThinOS 9.x devices.
● Factory Reset —You can reset a group of Dell Hybrid Client, ThinOS 8.x, and 9.x devices to factory settings.
● Send message—You can send message to a group of Wyse Embedded Standard, ThinLinux, ThinOS 8.x, 9.x, and Dell Hybrid
Client devices.
Wyse Management Suite to support restart of failed jobs
Wyse Management Suite supports restart of failed jobs (Device Commands, Application policy, Groups & Configurations, Image
Policy) from Jobs tab. With this feature, Wyse Management Suite provides an option to select new schedule while triggering the
restart of failed jobs. The steps below can be followed to restart a failed job:
1. Go to Jobs.
2. Select the check box of a failed job.
3. Click Restart Fail Job to restart the job.
This creates a new schedule job, and it applies only to the failed targeted devices. Failed jobs are updated with the status
code Restarted.
