Shell Scripts

Scalefusion offers support to remotely deploy and execute Shell scripts. Shell scripts are a great way to automate the management of systems and let IT Admins perform various actions remotely from the Scalefusion console. We have created a library of frequently used scripts that IT Admins can use to create the scripts as per their needs and deploy from the Scalefusion portal on their managed macOS devices. Click on the script title to load the related help document.

Notes:

1. Some of the scripts and their contents are sourced from the internet and various help documents of different vendors.

2. Please validate the scripts on a test machine before deploying them on all your managed devices.

3. Scalefusion has tested these scripts, however, Scalefusion will not be responsible for any loss of data or system malfunction that may arise due to the usage of these scripts.

Custom Setting Payloads

Apple MDM protocol offers various payloads to control different policies on the device. These policy payloads or configuration profiles are used by MDM providers like Scalefusion to provide device management capabilities. However, there are quite a lot of payloads that control various settings and policies on the device. Since it is practically impossible to include support for all payloads by providing a form or a UI, Scalefusion provides advanced IT Admins the option of creating their own custom payloads and pushing them to the devices via Scalefusion.

By using the Custom Settings feature of a Scalefusion macOS Profile, IT Admins can use a top-notch plist editor and push an MDM payload supported by Apple directly to the devices.
