Profile Manager Push Settings

[Wolverine-911]

We're testing out Yosemite at the moment using 1 iMac as a server, 2 test iMacs as clients and also our 2 technical iMacs as clients. We've enrolled devices and they are visible in Profile Manager and we can push settings to them.

 

We've created a profile and pushed it to the Technical OU so whenever we log on to an iMac we get certain dock settings. This has applied out to 3 of the iMacs but the last one it does not work. We have tried un-enrolling, removing placeholders, removing settings one by one etc and no luck. The best we can get is that when we log on to this specific iMac, it adds the dock items we want to the default dock, meaning it can at least communicate but it's screwing up somewhere.

 

If I log either of us on to any other iMac, our profiles are completely fine with only the dock items we created being deployed. I can then update this and it auto pushes out. If I log either of us on to this specific iMac it simply doesn't want to know and just adds the dock on to the default one. I can have both iMacs with the same OS logged on as the same user side by side but they see different things. How is this happening? Does anyone know where it's going wrong at all please? I'm seriously stumped now, it just makes no sense to me!

On your Yosemite server go to event logs, Profile manager and see what it states in there first.

I discovered the issue myself in the end. It was to do with the way it was bound to AD. One stupid tick box, completely irrelevant anyone would assume, decides whether the profile is pushed out as the profile or in addition to the stock dock you get anyway.
