Jamf - How to Deploy MacOS Devices

Modified on: Thu, Sep 1 2022 1:41 PM
  • Devices purchased or leased by the university are automatically enrolled in Apple School Manager and assigned to Jamf
  • At the time of deployment Mac devices must have their asset tag entered
    • This can be done under Devices -> Automated Device Enrollment 
    • Search for device via serial number
    • Click on the "Pencil" button
    • Enter asset Tag Information
    • **IMPORTANT** Shared user devices such as lab computers must have their profile changed to "Shared Device" prior to deployment
      • This will bypass user assignment and setup
    • Enter device name based on the standard naming schema (Building, Room number, asset tag)
      • Lab devices will automatically be assigned based on these names
      • Other groups may need to be assigned manually
