• Application Deployment
• Settings Management

7. Enrollment of Mac OS X
What do we need?

• Site server with Internet FQDN
• HTTPS-enabled Management Point
• HTTPS-enabled Distribution Point
• Enrollment Point and Enrollment Proxy Point
• Client Settings configured
Installation/Enrollment
• Terminal-based install (Console/SSH)
• Manual certificate enrollment
• User-driven GUI in SCCM 2012 R2

8. Demo

Mac OS-X device

9. Inventory
• Hardware inventory via Common Information Model (CIM)
• Installed programs via hardware inventory
• Inventory schedules handled by Default Client Policy

10. Application Management
• Native in ConfigMgr 2012 SP1 / R2 using CMMAC wrapper
(Community tool via:
http://www.flaschengeist-studios.com/cmapputil-helper/ )
• Supports APP, PKG, MPKG, DMG
• Detection via Application Bundle ID and Package ID
• Deployment to Devices, not Users
• Simulate Deployments are supported
• Must be a required deployment
• BITS not supported
• Global conditions not supported

11. Compliance Settings
• Creation of Items and Baselines
• Report compliance of preferences
• Remediate preferences
• Managing preferences is getting harder because of changes
since 10.8 and 10.9 and the ConfigMgr Client for Mac OS X
• Supports directly managing (system) preferences
• Supports discovery and remediation scripts

12. Compliance Settings
• System preferences are stored in LibraryPreferences
• So why can’t I manage user preferences?
• User preferences are stored in ~LibraryPreferences
(Users$USERLibraryPreferences)
• Configuration Manager client operates in Root context
• So the client will change Preferences of User Root (DCR is
submitted)
• Workaround = using Apple shell scripts
• defaults reads <preference> <setting> <value>
• defaults write <preference> <setting> <value>

13. Demo
deploy applications / inventory /
compliance settings

14. Troubleshooting
• Library/Application Support/Microsoft/CCM/Logs
• CCMClient-<date_time>.log
• Records activities that are related to the Mac client operations, which includes
application management, inventory, and error logging.
• ~/Library/Logs
• CCMAgent-<date_time>.log
• Records information that is related to client operations, which includes user
logon and logoff operations and Mac device activity.
• CCMNotifications-<date_time>.log
• Records activities that are related to Configuration Manager notifications
displayed on the Mac device .
