Episode 381: Enforcing minimum OS with Bushrat Chowdhury Sep 20, 2024

Show notes

Software Updates is a subject that is dear to the heart of all Mac Admins. Traditionally this was a task that we could only perform after devices were enrolled. Beginning with macOS 14, Automated Device Enrollment began to support the requirement of a Minimum OS Version, which allows us to mandate that the device is updated before we allow it to enroll into our device management system. This week, we'll talk with Bushrat Chowdhury of Jamf about the adaptation of this feature into the product.

Episode 380: Jamf Setup Manager Sep 10, 2024

Show notes

It seems like it's onboarding assistants all the way down at the moment. Everyone has embraced the idea of ensuring our users are kept informed about what is going on when their device is being configured, but most of them share one thing in common - they run once the user has arrived at the desktop. Today we are going. to discuss Jamf Setup Manager, which runs before the setup assistant during enrollment.
