# Special thanks to mm2270, cstout, nvandam from JamfNation for helping me with some testing and code suggestions to problems I couldn't solve on my own.#

everything works as expected from what I can see.įWIW I ran the script from self service because I believe most of my users will do that. Packaged up the file with composer and installed it before running the script. I can't see any reason why the script doesn't stop when it sees there are no updates to do. It goes ahead and tries to 'update' the machine. Everything seems to be working, however the script doesn't seem to know that I don't have any updates pending. I've just jumped onto your github - pulled the files down, updated the paths etc. I'm running a fleet of 150+ macs and Jamf don't seem to have an awesome for updating them all (patch management certainly doesn't work!)

I'm so pleased people are looking at other ways to update machines. The git can be found here: įirst of all this is awesome.

Folks here continue to add great suggestions and bug finds to what has been built, so please review the code and use a pinch of salt when deploying in your environments. it incorporates tons of bug fixes and feature additions discussed in the below posts. Below is what I have written, it will be in a policy that is scoped to a smart group of folks that have updates pending, any suggestions on functionality or workflow is appreciated.Įdit : A new GitHub has been made for this project. The biggest catch I've had so far is recording the success or failure of the reboot process because the reboot is triggered by the script thus the policy never completes and the logs are never submitted to Jamf. My goal is to incorporate the new softwareupdate -i -a -R feature as defined by Der Flounder () in a work flow that works well and is less intensive for my users. Since Jamf hasn't implemented a few of the feature requests out there that would make this better, I have resorted to making a script and using Jamf helper.
