Create a policy for the computers you do not want macOS Onboarding to deploy to.

  1. In Jamf Pro, click Computers in the sidebar.
  2. Click Policies in the sidebar.
  3. Click New .
  4. In the General payload, enter a display name for the policy (e.g., Exclude Computers from macOS Onboarding).
  5. Use the General payload to configure the following settings:

    • For Trigger, select "Recurring Check-in".

    • For Execution Frequency, select "Once per user per computer".

  6. Select the Scripts payload and click Configure.
  7. Click Add for the script you previously created in Creating a Script for macOS Onboarding Exclusion.
  8. Click the Scope tab and add the smart computer group you previously created in Creating a Smart Group to Identify Computers for Exclusion​.
  9. Click Save .

The policy deploys to computers in your smart group. The script marks macOS Onboarding as complete on target computers. As a result, macOS Onboarding does not deploy to computers that have executed the policy.
