Administration and image upgrades

This section highlights and discusses the Remote Administration capabilities and firmware upgrade methods applicable to your thin client.

Altiris Deployment Solution software

The Altiris Deployment Solution software is a full-featured remote administration tool set. It accesses the thin client through the Altiris remote Agent and PXE server utilities installed on the thin client.

Altiris allows you to perform the thin client administration functions (including firmware upgrades) without requiring an administrator to visit the individual thin client sites.

For more information about Altiris, see http://www.altiris.com.

Add-on upgrades

If you want to install an add-on module, you can use the Altiris Deployment Solution to administer the thin client. Disable/enable the write filter as needed to save the changes.

ÄCAUTION: If the available free space on the flash memory is reduced to less than 3 MB, the thin client becomes unstable.

✎For add-on modules to work and be downloaded, there must be sufficient flash space available. In some cases it may be necessary to remove software components to free up space for add-on modules.
