Step 3: Register and Deploy the WDM Package

Use WDM to register and deploy the WDM package as you normally would. For more information on registering a package from a script file (.rsp), see Administrators Guide: Wyse Device ManagerTM.

Step 4: Attach a Wyse Conversion Label on Each Converted Cloud Client

The conversion kit is supplied with Wyse Conversion Labels that must be attached to each cloud client as shown in Figure 8. Be sure you have purchased the amount of labels you need.

Caution

Failure to install the label may cause delays in service and support. The serial number must be given to a Customer Support Technician to validate entitlement to support and service from Wyse. Failure to do so will result in the original operating system being loaded on the device and is in breach of your license agreement.

Step 5: Obtain a Firmware Update

After converting your cloud clients, you must use your 1 Year ThinOS Maintenance (you should have received an email from Wyse or your reseller with full instructions) to obtain any available firmware update (if you did not receive this email, contact your reseller).

If you are unfamiliar with updating firmware on your Wyse ThinOS cloud client, refer to Wyse Knowledge Base Solution #10566 (go to the Wyse Knowledge Base at http://www.wyse.com/kb and search for 10566).
