General query on Linux JSS 8.62. Anyone else have random spontaneous loss of a mac's department and/or building configuration? If so, what did you find it was? A quick check of our database shows nothing wrong.

It was the extension attribute! We have one that programs the JSS with the current logged on user details. (thanks rtrouton!) Sadly it was reprogramming our department config with spurious info from our AD.

Now fixed. Thanks for your help ernstcs!

Is it re-enrolling for some reason?

It "shouldn't be" is the official answer. We have a normal and a thin imaging procedure here at UAL. For both procedures, we end up eventually deploying our firstrun package and rebooting the computer. This script handles the enrolment for us.

Nobody outside the team I'm on actually knows how to do it! Very strange.
