seen this too on the first one I downloaded the full installer package from apple via Mr Macintosh's link and ran the full InstallAssistant.pkg that worked

Also seeing this and we are running a 1 day defer as well.  Some models updated no problem, others not (so far we've only seen new MacBook Pros not updating currently.

Worked

M2 Mini (don't know the exact model but it's not managed by Jamf, so no deferral on this.)

Failed (that we know of)

Multiple brand new Mac Laptops 14,7 (13-Inch, M2, 2022)

According to that Reddit link, when I disable the deferral  settings completely users can update.
When I do this users have to reboot their machines when they get the new configuration profile.
Does this mean that it's a bug with JAMF or is it a problem with Apple ?

New report this morning, 51 machines have update, most are Intel and a few are M1/M1 Pro.  No M2's have updated.  Digging into it, we actually have a zero day deferral for a small group of people (techs, CISO etc) and of the M1's that are running the latest, one of them upgraded even though their machine has a deferral set on it (Maybe they did something manually??)  The other M1's in this list have no deferral set. So, this leads me to believe this is a problem with ALL M1,2 chips.  Anyone else seeing something similar?

Yeah, we just got a few tickets for this as well. We have a similar configuration profile for deferrals and some machines are updating fine when others, all M2 for now, are failing to update with the same error. I opened a case with Jamf support.

Let us know what Jamf has to say about it, please and thanks!

Has Jamf been helpful with this at all?  Not excited about having to remove the deferral on our devices...

No, not really. They said that it's an Apple issue and Apple is investigating and have it already fixed in 13.5 Beta 3. They suggested to unscope configuration profile for now and open Apple Care case if more information is needed.

I use Nudge to prod users to update and have a work around I use a policy to Install the InstallAssistant.pkg for 13.4.1 then make it available in self service I have nudge setup to call the install url in self service in stead of the update it takes 25 min to download and install the end user must manually follow the install os prompts

Do we know if the issue specific to 13.4.0, or does it impact previous versions as well?  Everyone I've seen with the problem so far has been on 13.4.0

It appears to only be affecting 13.4 machines as I was able to upgrade a managed 13.3.1 machine to 13.4 yesterday without any issues.

Good question.  Can't say, I've only seen it with 13.4.0 as well.  I've since excluded my Ventura ARM machines from my deferral policy to get things working again.  Will revisit when the next update comes out.

It looks to be the 13.4.1 update that is failing, but all of those are already on 13.4.0. Would be curious to know if a machine on 13.3 will have the issue going to 13.4.1

I upgraded a managed 13.3.1 machine to 13.4.1 yesterday with no issue.

I have found that going into management commands and doing a download and install helps here.

I see 13.5 landed last week, after an (a) (b) and (c) release of 13.4.1.  Anyone know/tested if deferral is still an issue?

JoeRonin

I'm seeing successful upgrades now that our deferral window has cleared. Has anyone else confirmed that 13.5 fixes this issue.

while RSR blocking does not work (Apple issue / PI somewhere) Blocking 13.5 is working as expected.

Thanks for the replies, I'll do some testing on my end (been off for a bit).
