Hi All,

I have created sep extension .mobileconfig and created the package.

But seems to be the .mobileconfig file is not executing from the package.

It's just landed into /private/var folder ..

Can anyone help on this ? May I know what commands I have to add in the post install script ...

You manage profiles with the /usr/bin/profiles command.

Have a look at man profiles

Why do you deploy the Profile as a Package? Pushing it out via MDM gives you way more flexibility.

@claudiogardini : Yes I agree your point , but unfortunately we don't have an APNS enabled in our infra and its under process.

Hi @sushanth.gopinath ,

You need to add post-install script in package to load .mobileconfig payloads.

@sushanth.gopinath things are only going to get worse and worse if you don't get APNS going fast.

Also if your SEP profile is for an Approved Kernel Extension, that can ONLY come from an MDM server.

@Naren : To some extend, it mayn't applicable for the cases as per the testing...
