Where can I download the latest 10Zig Manager? Minimum requirements:
Both the server and console packages require Windows XP with SP2, Windows Server 2003 with SP2, Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 and the .NET 2.0 Service Pack 1 or higher
MMC 3.0
Compatible with 32-bit and 64-bit Windows
10ZiGManager Server
Note: The manager installs on a PC/Server and runs as a service to monitor and act as a PXE server for the thin clients.
When the server is installed an instance of the manager console is installed with it
10ZiG Manager Console
If needed, the console is installed on a remote PC that will be used to connect to the 10ZiG Manager server to administer thin clients from that remote PC.
10ZiG Agent
The agent is installed on the XPe thin client itself.
Documentation is accessible through the 10ZiG Manager Server HELP
Where can I download the quick start guide
for the older version of the manager?
I am using the older manager and when I try to retrieve the
configuration from a thin client the program crashes with a term.exe error. Make certain you do not have a 5250 session name with an underscore in it.
How do I update the firmware on a Linux thin client
using the 10ZiG Manager? Make certain the Image Store path is set in the 10ZiG Manager setup
Copy the image file (.tar) to the image store folder
If the thin client is on the network the 10ZiG Manager service is running it will display in the 10ZiG Manager console.
Right click on the thin client to be updated and select Firmware update.
Confirm the update
![]()
Select the .tar file (image file) from the Image Store
![]()
A message will be displayed indicating the thin client will be updated and rebooted
At this time, no other message will indicate the status of the upgrade but the upgrade process will be displayed on the thin client itself. Once updated the thin client will reboot and be available again via the 10ZiG Manager Console.
When the unit is completing the PXE boot
process and loading the Linux environment I see the following lines on-screen near the end of the boot process;

The message that appears “FAT: Bogus number of reserved sectors“ should not cause concern as it just reflects the how Linux sees the FAT partition that we create with Windows when we build our master images.
The error does not affect backup or restoration.
Why don't my Linux or CE thin
clients PXE boot after I set them to PXE in the 10ZiG Manager? Do to BIOS limitations, each of the Linux and CE thin clients must be set to PXE boot in the BIOS.
Where can I download the older
version 2.0.40 of the BOSmanager?
Can I PXE boot to the 10ZiG Manager using the wireless connection? No, PXE is part of BIOS and the BIOS only knows about the built in NIC.
What ports are used by the 10ZiG Manager? For XP:
52500 UDP - Manager broadcasts discovery
52510 TCP - Manager remote system calls to agent
52511 TCP - Agent remote notify calls to manager
For Linux & CE:
1680 UDP/TCP - Most manager and client control communications
8001 TCP - HTTP port for firmware updates
What is the difference between the Clone System
Image - Deploy System Image and Backup and Restore? Clone System Image and Deploy System Image immediately take the option to do one or the other, completing the process immediately as a compressed file. The Backup and Restore option sets the PXE boot to yes, reboots the thin client and moves it to the Image Recovery Tab where you can manually take the option for the type of backup or restore required
The image will not push out and fails - what might be the problem? Make certain that use simple file sharing (Recommended) is unchecked in folder options - NOTE: The wording may be different in other versions of Microsoft Windows.
