Casper and Meraki Systems Manager

[Jalves]

Hey, I am looking to deploy the meraki systems manager to all of our district computers. We like the GPS tracking feature mainly. I tested it out by downloading it from our meraki dashboard. No issues. I packaged it using composer as a new snapshot and tested it out with casper remote. It seemed to work perfectly after a restart. The problem I am running into is that I cannot get this to work via policy. I tried it out with each trigger and none were successful. The policies don't fail, but the machines never check in with our meraki setup. Has anyone else tried to get this going?

Why are you re-packaging the Meraki Agent installer?
If you manually run the installer you downloaded from your Meraki Dashboard on a test client does it check in with the Meraki servers?
You should try uploading the original Meraki Agent .pkg as-is to Casper Admin and install it via Policy on a new test machine to rule out any possible issues with your snapshot package.

We use both Meraki and Casper on our district computers. Just deploy it using the standard Meraki install package via policy, and the machines will check in just fine. If it ain't broke don't fix it!

Off topic, but has Meraki added a way to turn off the GPS feature if you don't want it ?

Deploying it without repackaging it worked out. Thanks for the help. I don't know why I tried to complicate the process with composer.

@CasperSally][/url][/url][/url How-to disable location tracking in your Meraki Systems Manager.
Log into your Meraki Dashboard.
On the left side of the Dashboard click on Mobile, Settings, check the box Enable privacy settings, now uncheck Allow location tracking & Allow SSID tracking.
