Hello All,
We were using following script to rename the computer name and it was working before 2 months.
#!/bin/bash
# jamf Api
apiUser="####"
apiPass="####"
jssURL="our_jamf_instance_url"
serial=$(system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | awk '/Serial\\ Number\\ \\(system\\)/ {print $NF}')
serialc=$(system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | awk '/Serial\\ Number\\ \\(system\\)/ {print substr($0,length-5)}')
base=$(curl -H "Accept: text/xml" -sfku "${apiUser}:${apiPass}" "${jpsURL}/JSSResource/computers/serialnumber/${serial}/subset/Location" | xmllint --xpath "/computer/location/building/text()" -)
echo Building:$base
scutil --set ComputerName $base-$serialc-M
scutil --set HostName $base-$serialc-M
scutil --set LocalHostName $base-$serialc-M
cname=$(scutil --get ComputerName)
echo ComputerName:$cname
exit 0
Now the script is returning error
cript result: -:1: parser error : Document is empty
