10.13.2 Combo Update (

[donmontalvo]

Download macOS High Sierra 10.13.2

This update is recommended for all Macs running macOS High Sierra 10.13.1. For all other systems running macOS High Sierra, please install 10.13.2 via Mac App Store Software Updates.​

Does this mean no Combo Updater?

Not even the Delta 10.13.2 is available on the Apple support pages.

Please Apple allow the Combo to be downloaded, most Mac Admins push out the Combo updates not the Deltas.

[Look]

Combo updates usually take a bit of time to become available. You probably wouldn't want to mass push it day zero anyway.

@dmw3 they heard ya. :)

macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 Combo Update

@Look @Nix4Life Thanks, we're hot to test 10.13.2, not to get it out to users, but to validate the issues we reported got resolved, so we can test KEXT user allow stuff.

On a side note, found it interesting, when enrolling a 10.13.2 computer, had to hit "Allow" on the MDM Profile...but then when we unenrolled the computer from JSS and rebooted the computer, McAfee complained about it's KEXTs not being able to load. We showed McAfee some mercy and went to Security & Privacy > General and ok'd the KEXTs (requires admin rights; unlike MDM "Allow"). Just to shut McAfee up.

10.13.2 is shaping up to be an exciting update. #hotDang #rollsEyes

Well, finally tried updating using the Combo Updater, interesting, found that you could not have external monitors attached to a 2017 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar as the progress bar would not show until the USB-C cables were removed.

Just showed a blank screen, actually thought the updated had failed due to no progress bar.

@dmw3 Interesting, saw something similar. Ran 10.13.2 Combo Updater on a 2015 MBPr, and it seemed to complete, but booted back into 10.13.1. Tried again and got the same result.

I remember trying it a third time and it worked. That time I disconnecting it from the Landingzone dock, moving to another desk.(*)

I wonder if it had something to do with the two large monitors I had connected to the dock?

(*) Was testing the 10.13.2 user "Allow" MDM profile stuff, Apple won't let you click the "Allow" button remotely...unrelated to this thread.

Anyone figure out how to get Jamf to reliably reboot a Mac into the 10.13.2 Combo Update? Not having any luck here. #allhighsierraisbroken

I was wondering the same thing, now that 10.13.3 is out and encrypted computers are not handling authenticated reboot properly.

We are on 9.101.4 and the online manual has a note regarding the feature, but it doesn't make sense to me..."For this to work on computers with FileVault 2 activated, the enabled FileVault 2 user must log in after the policy runs for the first time and the computer has restarted."

Hi, @osxadmin I'm setting up repotoddy and wondered if it can be setup without munki? the --configure flag seems to want munki set up?
