Hi there,

I try to use Jamf Setup Manager to made zero touch installation on my Macs.
First question, i don’t have found how to launch JSM after enrollement wouthout let a welcome pane open. If the Mac return back to login screen nothing happens. Is it possible to automatically launch JSM without a pane opened?

I also try to change Mac name and sync his identify on Jamf inventory, which are the command i could use in JSM to do this?

Thanks for your help

Did you add JSM package and your JSM conifiguration to the prestage? Once the two are there, it should run right after enrollment.

In your screen shot, you have 0 Enrollment Packages. Try adding the JSM Package there and test again.

Hi, I’ve finally abandonned using Enrollement Packages, because we don’t have Jamf Cloud and our Jamf Pro on Prem instance has network shares manager by active directory accounts… I ask if it’s possible to have a network share R/O openned for everyone but i don’t think its possible.
 

I still have a probleme i made a script to rename my Mac during Jamf Setup Manager job, i don’t know what doesn’t work in my script, here it is:
 

#changement du nom du mac avec la variable
/usr/local/bin/jamf setcomputername -name ima-secu-x52277

#changement directement de l'etiquette d'inventaire
/usr/local/bin/jamf recon -assetTag ima-secu-x52277

# jamf recon pour la fiche
/usr/local/bin/jamf recon

Jamf Setup Manager should still work with On Premise Jamf instance, I believe.

Just requires a distribution point that is configured withan HTTPS distribution point. You might have that setup already?

We have distributions points configured, one in HTTP with a R/W account and one HTTPS with a R/O access account.

I saw to use enrollement packages we must have a R/O share with an access to everyone, i think it’s pretty un secure.
