Thin client recommendation or Advisor

I realize that this issue is somewhat subjective, but I'm hoping to get some good recommendations. We are looking in a VMware View deployment, but we are not familiar with thin clients. We hope to standardize on 1-3 types of thin clients, hopefully with the same provider. Our thinking is that we would have a client who is good for 98% or our users, for "power users" who need a more powerful client and one for the lab machines which were not yet as much as regular users. We are also thinking about a type of 'portable' thin client for some users who currently have laptops (maybe).

I did some research and Wyse seems to be a good brand, but I want to be sure before I recommend something to the top of the line. My main concerns in a thin client are ease of management, security, ease of use (both for administrators and users), saw the transformation of power needed to run tasks users want to (which includes the possibility of two monitors), having the ability to multimedia unloading for the client and the server, and the PRICE.

I found a Wyse V10L for about $320 (running Wyse ThinOS) and a V90L for about $415 (running Windows XPe). I don't know what benefits (or disadvantages) we are running a "thin" compared to Windows XP or XPF OS. Also, I wonder how much memory difference allows a thin client. It seems that many of them come with 128 MB of RAM, but that does not seem a lot. We do not know whether we should target a customer who has at least 512 MB RAM, or if it really matters that much.

I hope that gives you an idea of what we are looking for. I'd appreciate any advice or information on the brands, which OS is to use (or not), what to look for in terms of processing power or memory, etc.. We do not spend more than $500 on a thin client that receive us so close an office price, although I realize that the life expectancy of the thin client must be superior to that of a desktop computer, in theory.

The HP product can do what can do the Wyse, but they have not officially released the software to do it on the t5545, only the XP embedded customers light up to now. That should be coming this month, and yes it does not Add ' l $$$.

For the Wyse, you don't need a server to Add ' l to do the TCX things... and they do not need to be in Active Directory. There are consoles for thin clients two sellers, but those who are for asset tracking/remote management help more as they are for authentication.

  • T610: thin client, multi-imaging platform

    Hi all

    IV ' e hoping to put this in the right place and someone can help or point me in the right direction.

    I'm looking for information on Thin Clients and Device Manager (HPDM), specifically on best practices on building and image capture, cross-platform and imaging would be advantageous.

    I am currently using HPDM Imaging for my thin clients t5470 and t5470e, t610, t620.

    I'm looking for a few docuemntation on recommended Configuration of HP for Imaging. is it to make a "gold" image or it can be pre-determined by HPDM like Microsofts SCCM or WDT?

    It would be fantastic if I could get it down to a single Image of WES7 for most of my Thin Clients if possible.

    Thanks in advance.
    J

    HPDM provides no functionality of creating an image, tt just do capture and deploy.

    The factory image include all drivers are built by HP R & D WES, there should be no one who can help you, but as far as I know there is no document to save the steps in detail. I suggest that you raise a ticket to impact to HP for help.

    MDT can not be used to deploy the image provided by HP. When building the image, no matter it is an original image or Thinupdate captured image, HP has done little customization in/after imaging process. I don't think that MDT can identify and carry out even these customizations.

    Hello

    It does not support the full version of Windows XP. According to the manual, you can install Windows XP embedded, but you will need to contact the manufacturer for assistance on this.

    For help I recommend that you report this problem in Windows Embedded Standard.

    Hi Alex,

    It can be configured by going to Setup > remote access VPN > clientless SSL VPN access > political group and change your WebVPN users group strategy, as you can see:

    If I can give you an opinion on it, I would recommend using smart-tunnel-port forwarding because it is getting out of date and you will be able to get the same results with chip-tunnels.

    More information on smart-tunnels:

  • flexible thin client T520: T520 Thin Client, how can I join a domain?

    I need to put my thin clients on the domain.

    Do not click no right, no "system" in the control panel... How to loosen things up I can do a basic administration?

    Not quite what I needed.

    I am logged on as administrator

    There is no 'System' icon in "All Control Panel items" to interact with.

    in the Explorer, 'Computer' is not right clickable, so there is no contextual menu from the drop-down list select 'properties '.

    NETDom is not a valid command of the high - command prompt = yes.

    Is what I found to work through experimentation;

    From a command prompt, type "explorer".

    This opens a window of the Explorer, which lists the 'C' and 'RAMDrive.

    (Just by clicking on the start menu, and the computer in the conventional way, shows that "RAMDrive").

    From there you can right click on "Computer" and put in place the familiar 'Control Panel>>System Control Panel items'

  • HPDM: HPDM can't see any of my thin clients

    A few months ago, I set up a server HPDM on Win 2012r2 and light HP 12, mainly mt245 clients. I could see all the thin clients with HPDM, I even used it for the Image of each of them.

    Yesterday, I went to add a new abd mt245 the image. All TCs went from HPDM and it does not find it again. I tried to walk to the beach. I tried to manually add as well as at the foot of the range of the exact IP that the TC has to say things. I ping the TC from the server and vice versa.

    The Windows Firewall is turned off completely.

    Any thoughts?

    Thank you

  • 4.7 HP Device Manager: HPDM finding Thin Clients

    I'm trying to implement HP Device Manager 4.7 on a newly configured Windows 2012 R2 server.

    I am replacing a Server 2008 R2, where HP Device Manager works perfectly on our network.  In fact, if I uninstall HPDM on the new server and reinstall it on Server 2008 R2 I can always access all thin clients.

    The only difference I see in the facilities which is for some reason any gateway in HPDM is not a subnet mask.  Research of the device are not lacking, they don't sell anything or simply continue indefinitely until I have Cancel.

    Any help would be great.  Thanks in advance.

    Just to confirm: you did turn with HPDM 4.7 on Server 2008 R2 successfully, but not the right to 2012 R2 server?

    Is your Windows 2012 R2 server with more than 1 NIC card? Could you please assign a specific NIC loca in the Gateway Configuration window and see if that fixes the problem?

    Otherwise the logging level value please DEBUG and post the gateway.log when start HPDM Gateway

  • Shado task does not connect to the Thin Client

    Trying to hide a T520 on HPDM 4.6SP4 thin client, when I run the task of shadow, I retrieve a VNC connection on the server HPDM and not the thin client. T520 thin clients are ThinPro 5. This happens on the T510 Smart thin clients zero Core as well. I'm guessing there's a conf file that may have a value defined by mistake, but didn't find it.

    Dear customer,

    Welcome and thanks for posting your query on the Forum from the HP Support

    Looks like you are facing difficulties regarding the task of the shadow copy in the HP Device Manager

    1 shadow task uses the built in VNC server for the HP Device Manager software

    2. If you have installed a separate VNC software on the server of HPDM, there could be a conflict

    3. also please check under "services.msc" to find out how many services VNC running concurrently

    4. If you find that several services VNC please disable those who is not necessary

    5. Please goto Add / Remove programs and uninstall VNC Viewer is installed separately
