Not really an "issue"...

Hi Rusty,

Just curious if you've ever looked into making these scripts function in Jamf via self service, etc. Would be super handy for migrating users to new machines. But also not sure how well they'll work on modern macOS versions.

Thanks!

I have not thought about it in a Jamf context, but it might be very possible. It would require a share the users have permissions to mount, as DeployStudio automatically provided one when netbooting the client. We'd have to think about how to make sure it would mount properly...but possible.

Thanks Rusty. And yeah, would need to have permissions (or just hardcode username and password into the script(s)).

I found something called MacUSMT that I'm gonna give a go. it leverages TimeMachine to do the backup and restore. Not sure how well it'll work, but...

Baring that, I'll look at forking this and poking at it. My main concern is all the stuff that doesn't seem to be readable even as root in a home directory anymore, so I imagine it's gonna throw some errors. =/
