I'm new to Jamf.  We have 1 computer that went through the prestage enrollement.  I can see the MDM profiles on the device and it states that this mac is supervised and managed but in Jamf it shows as unmanaged, enrolled via automated enrollment =yes, it  has not checked in since the device was wiped. Can someone point me in the right direction.

Password entry is masked so you won't see any characters being typed in the Terminal window.

If you are using a Smart Card, password entry may be disallowed and you'll need to authenticate using the token/key.

after entering the password I get

sudo: jamf: command not found

Thank you.  This worked.  I appreciate the help.  Just took over jamf administration...

Was the Mac remote wiped?

It's normal for a device that has been remote wiped to show as 'Unmanaged' in Jamf Pro.

It will change to 'Managed' upon next enrollment.

In some cases, you can actually send a mass action command to renew the MDM profile even though that command is unavailable from the management tab for that particular device. That usually triggers a reinstallation of the JAMF framework.

I don't think renewing MDM profile re-installs the Jamf binary. Though that can be done via the Jamf Pro API through the web > jamf-management-framework > put in ID of computer > 'Try It' it will re-install the binary/framework via MDM command.

Alternatively, there is a script Jamf can give out that allows you do do that on multiple computers.
