We're in a big push to re-image all of our Macs with JAMF. The longest task in doing this is dealing with the users data. (Re-imaging is required since all of the Macs are encrypted with 3rd party FDE, which is being replaced with FV)

I've seen a number of scripts the discussion site about this, and wondered if any of you have any best case suggestions.

The workflow we have so far is: 1. Rsync user data to external drive [rsync -azv]
2. Image computer with JAMF 3. Rsync user data back
4. Set permissions [chown -R username:staff]
5. User logs in

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
