+1Hi community,
Here looking for feedback on this beta feature from jamf pro specifically on things that have not worked out for you upgrading macOS to Ventura 13.5.2
- I did a test on my mac but restart is not forced - anyway a restart can be forced?
- I received the Software Update notification come in successfully on my machine and I diverted it but did not received another notification even though I set for this to occur 3 times
Your input is appreciated.
+8My recommendation is to not use that as a tool for software updates. It is still broken and has been broken for a while.
Instead, use erase-install and nudge. Or Super.
+13I tested it for about a week and found that, though it would push the update, there was never a notification to the user about the update, no option for defferral, and most worryingly, no notification prior to a reboot. So, essentially, it was a silent upgrade to the user. I did open a ticket with Jamf and they mentioned this type of behavior has been noted, and there is an internal PI for it (dont have the number offhand). When/if they get it right, this is going to be a major improvement for managing upgrades. I'd definitely rather rely on a tool built in to the MDM than relying on additional 3rd party tools (though they DO work effectively).
