iPads being renamed in Jamf

I saw that for a while but it was resolved by upgrading to 10.23.0. What version are you running?
In our case we name devices after DEP/AC2 enrollment but Jamf was sending a 'RenameDevice' MDM command right after.

We are on 10.24.2 (Jamf Cloud). Maybe it is something I should raise with support?

Is the given name by the pre-stage not being enforced? Even if allow device name changes were to be left open the next inventory update should be changing the name back.

I've also seen OS updates or using reset all settings or reset network settings change the name.

@mainelysteve Yes the name is enforced in the prestage. Could well be updates and reset network settings doing it but that would surely be a product issue if that is the case, right?

@awginger Somewhat. OS updates that may potentially change the name would be something to bring up with Apple(SE or enterprise support). Network settings reset changing the name back to the default iPad is to be expected. In either case though an inventory update (scheduled or not) should bring those back in line. If the name being enforced in Jamf Pro is the one that was assigned by the pre-stage then from a manageability standpoint it's mostly functioning. If the some outside factor is changing the name of the device and it's not being changed back by an inventory update then that's definitely something Jamf support needs to be aware of.

As an aside I've always left name changes unrestricted because if I enforced that setting the name would never reliably be set and would stay on iPad, iPad (1), etc..

the name of an iPad is being reset to "IPAD" when a user resets network settings in the iPad settings. Maybe that's what you're seeing...

So it is the 'reset network settings' that is renaming the iPad back to 'iPad', is that what we're saying @mainelysteve @beteka ?

If so, I will let them all update inventory (will be next week as it is a school holiday) and see if they get renamed back to what they should...

@awginger Well it's a possibility and something worth investigating. If it truly is Reset Network Settings then perhaps look into why this is being used so often.

Great, thanks guys.
