Info

This procedure

is

based off the procedure maintained for the ITSS Support teams, but the same general method may be used to manually enroll a MacOS device in any UCSB Jamf Site. Note the following:

  • During site selection, be sure to select your department’s particular UCSB Jamf site.

  • To skip site selection, avoiding errors by end-user enrollments, you can also use Jamf to send Site-specific enrollment invitation links via email.


Requirements: Local administrative permissions on the computer to be enrolled.

  1. On the computer being enrolled, use Safari or Chrome to navigate to https://ucsb.jamfcloud.com/enroll:

  2. Authenticate using your UCSBNetID credentials (and Duo if prompted). Note that any user with valid UCSBNetID credentials can perform Computer enrollment:

  3. Use the dropdown to specify the Jamf site the computer should be assigned to. CECI = College of Engineering (don’t use “None”!)
    If an incorrect Jamf Site has been selected during enrollment, submit a Jamf Request specifying the serial number and desired Site; the EUCE team will reassign the computer accordingly.

  4. Specify a full UCSBNetID email address for the device assignee if you do not wish to self-assign it; the magnifying glass can be clicked to search valid accounts against UCSB identity. A successful match will display a check mark at the right of the field. Note that technicians can adjust this later in Jamf Pro after enrollment. Click “Enroll” after the user and site are correct.

  14. Email help@engineering.ucsb.edu so a System Administrator can assign your computer to the appropriate departmental group within the College of Engineering instance. For example Computer Science has additional software only available to computer science students, faculty and staff. IEE, TMP, SSLEEC, ENMT and CHNE also have paid software that is not installed by default for computers in the general group for the College of Engineering.
