Adding Windows Embedded Standard operating
system and ThinLinux images to inventory
Prerequisites
Prerequisites
● If you are using Wyse Management Suite with cloud deployment, go to Portal Administration > Console Settings > File
Repository. Click Download version 1.2 to download the WMS_Repo.exe file and install the Wyse Management Suite
repository installer. For more information, see Accessing file repository.
● If you are using Wyse Management Suite with on-premise deployment, the local repository is installed during Wyse
Management Suite installation process.
About this task
To add an image to the inventory folder on your system, do the following:
Steps
1. Copy the Windows Embedded Standard operating system images or ThinLinux images to the <Repository
Location>\repository\osImages\zipped folder.
Wyse Management Suite extracts the files from the compressed folder and uploads the files in the <Repository
Location>\repository\osImages\valid location. The image extraction may take several minutes depending upon
the image size.
NOTE:
For ThinLinux operating system, download the merlin image, for example, 1.0.7_3030LT_merlin.exe, and
copy in the <Repository Location>\Repository\osImages\zipped folder.
The image is added to the repository.
2. Go to Apps and data > OS image repository > WES/ThinLinux to view the registered image.
Managing ThinOS firmware inventory
To add a file to the ThinOS image inventory, do the following:
Steps
1. In the Apps & Data tab, under OS Image Repository, click WTOS.
2. Click Add File.
The Add File screen is displayed.
3. To select a file, click Browse and navigate to the location where your file is located.
4. Enter the description for your file.
5. Select the check box if you want to override an existing file.
NOTE:
The file is added to the repository when you select the check box but it is not assigned to any of the groups or
devices. To assign the file, go to the respective device configuration page.
6. Click Upload.
