- | ## Enterprise Deployments | ||
- | |||
- | Version 2.1 and greater enables IT Administrators to configure the Mac Drive via commercial provisioning software, like JAMF. The available configuration options are: | ||
- | |||
- | | Key | Value(s) | Purpose | | ||
- | | endpoint | https:// | ||
- | | restrictEndpoint | true or false | Defines if users can override the default endpoint value. Default false | | ||
- | | AllowSelfUpgrade | true or false | Defines if automatic upgrade is allowed by the user. Default true | | ||
- | |||
- | Customers wishing to deploy these, should deploy these as a Plist-based configuration profile to the end-user devices. | ||
- | |||
- | ``` | ||
- | <?xml version=" | ||
- | < | ||
- | <plist version=" | ||
- | < | ||
- | < | ||
- | < | ||
- | < | ||
- | < | ||
- | < | ||
- | < | ||
- | </ | ||
- | </ | ||
- | ``` | ||
- | |||
- | This configuration should be pushed to the following Preference Domain: | ||
- | ``` | ||
- | com.vehera.storagemadeeasy.enterprisefilefabric | ||
- | ``` | ||
- | |||
- | Instructions for installing the above Plist file onto end-user devices will vary by the software you are using. An example of configuration with JAMF can be found here: | ||
