Generally, Jamf can support OS X 10.12 or later and iOS 10 or later. Please contact the ITS Service Desk (77) or use the ITS self-service portal to submit a request to enroll your University-owned macOS device in Jamf. How is the Jamf agent installed?Ī member of the Desktop Services team will need to schedule an appointment with you to install the agent and enroll your device in Jamf. No personal information is collected, such as the contents or names of personal files (documents, email, etc) or any browsing history.

In addition, computer inventory is uploaded to the JSS once a day, causing less than 200KB of network traffic, 8MB Real Memory, and 3.74% CPU. The agent on a macOS client checks in with the JSS at computer start up and every 15 minutes thereafter, consuming 2KB of network traffic, 4MB Real Memory, and 0.10% CPU. Jamf consists of a management server cluster known as the Jamf Software Server (JSS), a small software utility known as an "agent" on enrolled macOS computers, and a Mobile Device Management (MDM) profile on enrolled macOS and iOS devices.
