Monterey Guest - can't edit Serial number for iMessage/Apple services
Hello. Cannot edit the serial number on my Monterey guest OS and I need it so I can use icloud/imessage etc.
Configuration
- UTM Version: 3.1.15
- OS Version: Monterey 12.3
- Intel or Apple Silicon? Apple Silicon
This would also be super handy for testing automated device enrollment workflows using Apple's DEP system.
Does anyone know how to add or change this? The config.plist seems like a likely direction but I was not able to succeed. I tried changing it by adding a (
I would also expect a way to add this after initial install - if anyone has any idea?
Is it possible to add the existing serial to Apple Business Manager?
iCloud/AppleID's can't be used on Apple Silicon VMs without a special entitlement from Apple.
Ignoring Apple IDs, is there still a way we can change the serial number so we can at least test Apple Business Manager enrollment workflows?
This same problem of network entitlement seems to plague installing apps from the App Store as well. For example, Xcode cannot be traditionally installed and must be gotten and installed via the developer portal (https://developer.apple.com/download/all/).
I would be very curious to be interested in research that may facilitate the forcing of entitlements so we can use such virtual machines for more robust development scenarios. It's unreasonable for Apple to expect small and open source development efforts to somehow obtain a full blown dedicated Apple Silicon system for devs to use without it being sandboxed for a resource donor that might want to share some spare CPU cycles on their system(s).
Is there a way to grant these entitlements as a local developer? Perhaps they can be a feature flag for "pro users" to compile UTM locally.
As for testing, I wonder if GitHub Actions will add Apple Silicon machines
