Changing Jamf Management Account

[JeanetteA]

We have a problem where The Jamf Management Account created during User Initiated Enrollment, was also used for local administrative tasks.  We need to create a new management account on the computers, and then instruct Jamf to use the new management account for management tasks, rather than the old management account. 

What is the best way folks have gone about this?  

Thank you!

Are you looking to change the whole account or just change the password? The best approach, if you can do it, is probably just to change the password via a policy for the current management account, otherwise I think you'd have to re-enroll all your endpoints again to add the new account.

If you do change the password make sure to also update the password in your User-Initiated Enrollment settings.
