JAMF/Casper Command-Line Arguments for Beginners

Sometimes JAMF just doesn’t work the way we want it to. Sometimes we need a little assistance using it. Here are a list of a few JAMF commands that can help us with our day to day. Note: most of these commands *will* require sudo access, so I’ll just assume that you’re using an admin account when going over the commands

• sudo jamf recon – Command to check in to JAMF / check for updates / etc.
• sudo jamf policy -event [policyname] – Runs a specific policy that installs a piece of software / etc.
• sudo jamf policy – Runs a policy [in general] that installs a piece of software / etc.
