Renaming PC

[ekarazhov]

Question is: How long after i rename PC the new name will show up in JAMF? I rename PC after a management profile is installed. If there is a different way of doing things please advice me. I am new to JAMF and i welcome new suggestions.

@ekarazhov depends on check in time set in your jamf pro settings, by default it will take maximum 15 minutes to update.

after you rename a computer run the following command in terminal, it will force a checkin & update the information in jamf the moment you run the command.

sudo jamf recon
