FEATURE REQUEST : DELAY OF OS UPDATES

[MikeMandalorian]

Requesting to have the ability to Delay of OS updates until we want the OS installed  or at least longer than 90days  IE 120days  

[jared_f · Accepted solution]

This is already a feature in the restrictions profile. The day limit is an Apple limitation, not Meraki.

Still should be what we choose not what Apple lets us

[jared_f]

Block Apple update servers on your network if you don’t want people updating. Then setup a policy to alert you if anybody circumvents and updates.

[T1]

You can choose to block iOS update servers as part of iOS configuration payload which is effectively the same thing. Blank blocking iOS updates company wide is not something I'd recommend.

[MRCUR]

Apple defines what the restriction payloads can do, not Meraki. You should submit this feedback to Apple directly.

Another thing to note about the software update delay payload: it defers X days from when Apple releases the update to their catalog, it does not defer from the date you push/install the profile.
