JSM 1.2 beta: Setup Manager only supports Jamf solutions! (Setup Assistant / Enrollment)

[iamflaurian]

Hello,

First of all, I would like to say thank you for this great tool and for your effort in listening to our feedback as a community.

When I try to deploy JSM 1.2 beta by enrolling my MacBook Air (Apple Silicon, macOS 15.3.1), I receive the message: "Setup Manager only supports Jamf solutions!"—which should be the case, as I am using Jamf Pro as my MDM solution. I only have the option to restart the device, without the ability to continue. This means I have to go through the recovery process to re-install the client.

The only configuration change I made when upgrading from version 1.1 to 1.2 beta was modifying the "final action" key from "shutdown" to "restart".

Update and temporary solution:
It's actually to set "simulateMDM" with "Jamf Pro" which I not expected to set because of regular enrollment not using the debug mode. I re-install again, I got the same issue again. I reproduce it again, if I erase the MacBook Air and re-install macOS, delete the object on Jamf Pro, it works again with "simulateMDM".

greetings

Do you have the DEBUG key set to true in your profile?

[iamflaurian]

No

when you switch the finalAction back to continue you should be able to continue setup without needing to restart. Alternatively, you can force quit Setup Manager with shift-ctrl-command-E before it reboots. Please share /Library/Logs/Setup Manager.log from an affected Mac.

So this is quite confusing. Are you saying simulateMDM works, but only after erasing the device and deleting the record from Jamf Pro?

Exactly. I tested it two times.

Have you tried deleting the computer record without setting the simulateMDM key? (Setup Manager doesn't read that key unless DEBUG is true)

Either way, log please? You can send to setupmanager (at) jamf.com if you don't want to post it here

You're right, "deleting the computer record without setting the simulateMDM key" also work but without deleting the computer record its not working. Logs coming in the next 15minutes to your email address.
