Remember to select all the Macs you want to activate with DEP and then hit Save when ready to deploy. Once assigned add the Macs to a PreStage Enrollment group in Jamf. Sometimes it can take a few days (or longer) to get sorted out so plan this in early if you’re on a deadline! Order from a well-known reseller to ensure they add your purchases into DEP correctly. Whether that’s a bug or standard behaviour I’m unsure as it didn’t seem to be documented anywhere as a specific requirement. The service account we used initially wouldn’t connect for love nor money and in desperation I tried making a new account, avoiding any extra characters (-, _ etc) in the username and no special characters in the password… voila it worked first time. Most of the setup process during our Jamf Jumpstart session went smoothly but watch out when configuring your Active Directory bind settings. This post outlines some of the new things my colleague Tristan Revell and I have learnt along the way. With it brought a foray into the brave new world of Jamf Pro for management and DEP \ MDM deployment rather than the trusty DeployStudio imaging method the college has used for many years. Thanks to a funding bid from the Mayor of London we were recently able to upgrade our key Mac teaching rooms with the latest hardware for our Media students.
