Bulk-Job SMC 6.0: How to set 180 iPads to unmanaged?

Hi there,

my 180 iPads are set to managed in SMC 6.0. But due to a new configuration with apple configurator 2 they have a brandnew configuration and not connected to the SMC. How can I mark all iPads and set them to unmanaged? I can do it for 1 iPad in the detailed view of one iPad but not for 180 devices at once. I would really appreciate it if all possible tasks for one device will become available for all tagged devices in the list-view. Maybe you can put it under my x-mas-tree with the Version 6.1 ;-)?

  • Hi Stefan,
    my devices follow a naming-convention like tablet001 - tablet180. When I delete the devices from SMC6 and I add them via the AC2 and the auto-enrollment-Feature then we come to the next not-yet-existing Feature of SMC6. It would be nice if the SMC6 would auto-add an auto-enrolled Device with the clientname of that device but it doesn't. It gives the new iPad a strange name constructed of the device-type and some other fields (MAC-Address? IMEI? Not sure, something like that) and so I would have to rename all of my 180 iPads. Not good. This not-yet-existing Feature will hopefully appear in SMC 6.1 and then everything is open again. But then there's another thing missing: Assign an email-address to all of the new added devices in the list. Can I set a default-mail-address for every new device?
    The developers of every administrative tool should be forced to use their own tool and do every possible action for 300 devices/users or whatever is administered by the tool. Then you can be sure it's a good tool for the administration of large environments. One job for X devices should be one action and not x actions.

    my 2 cents

    Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
