First Time Setup Loop (Upgrading to Monterey)

Hi guys,

We are currently in the process of upgrading our Mac's to Monterey. Unfortunately after completing the first time setup for our Mac's, some of our macs are still attempting to retry the first time setup when we return the next day or sometimes even after a few hours. We are prominently upgrading through software updates. My colleague believes that it could perhaps be the Mac's not being able to cache the *apple.complete* files which are read upon boot. Please could someone help.

 

Many Thanks,

 

Alexander

Instead of upgrading via Software Updates, can you package the macOS Monterey installer, deploy, and upgrade this way?
