11.16 compliance features

I Have updated my instance to 11.16 and here are some quick hits that are bugging me. 

  • theres an option of monitor, and monitor and enforce. However there is no switch available to go from 1 to the other, you need to create a whole new set of rules, make your changes, then send it out. this needs to be looked at.
  • once the monitor has been set (I didnt enforce quite yet) you get the results, how many machines pass or fail, there is NO WAY to see what machines fail, OR WHY they failed certain standards, this too needs to be looked at.
  • using the advanced search fails to yield any results as there is no way to point to these standards in the search function
  • when using JCE, profiles were added in the device management tab, using Jamf's CE, I dont have a CLUE where they're stored at
  • the documentation contains NONE of the items i've listed above

Hi @danlaw777 . Thanks for your interest in compliance benchmarks and your feedback. Let me comment those:

  • Ability to switch between monitor and enforce mode will come in very near future. We are actively working on it.
  • We understand the need to easily see what machines are out of compliance. This is also under development and will come in near future. In the meantime, there is a workaround to get this information - please see this post. Please let us know if this helped.
  • "using the advanced search fails to yield any results as there is no way to point to these standards in the search function" - could you please elaborate a bit more? Do you mean that the workaround does not produce what you need or that it does not work at all?
  • Compliance benchmarks creates and manages profiles, scripts and other artefacts that are stored under device management tab. They are organised into a category that is named after your compliance benchmark configuration name.

ability to switch coming-EXCELLENT

workaround worked!

and I still dont see the profiles in device management

@danlaw777 Do you mind sharing your compliance benchmark configuration as well as the profiles section under device management (screenshots incl. rules, if that is ok)? If you can't share it publicly for privacy reasons, please share it via DM to me or open a support ticket. Thank you.
