Profile Drift

Profile Drift

Find macOS configuration profiles that aren't installed on as many Macs as you'd expect, and profiles installed on Macs that no longer exist in Jamf Pro. Read-only.

How to use it

1. Connect to Jamf Pro and click Connect →. The tool checks Read Computers and read access to configuration profiles. Then click Continue → (or Proceed Anyway →) to scan.
2. The tool reads every macOS configuration profile in Jamf Pro, then the profiles installed on every Mac in inventory.

Results

Each profile shows its name, how many Macs have it installed, its coverage (installed Macs as a share of all Macs scanned) and a status:

Status	Meaning
Healthy	Installed on 85% or more of the Macs scanned
Partial	Installed on some Macs, but fewer than 85%
0 Installs	In Jamf Pro, but not installed on any Mac
Orphaned	Installed on at least one Mac, but there's no profile with that name in Jamf Pro. It may have been deleted or renamed, or installed some other way

Counts at the top show how many profiles have each status, and how many devices were scanned.

Issues only hides healthy profiles, and Orphaned shows only orphaned ones. Type in Filter… to search by name. If every profile is healthy, you see No issues found.

Reading the results

Coverage is measured against all Macs scanned, not against each profile's scope. A profile scoped to one department will show as Partial even when it's on every Mac it should be on. Use the list to spot profiles worth a closer look, not as a pass or fail.

Profiles are matched by name. A profile renamed in Jamf Pro can show as 0 Installs under its new name and Orphaned under its old name until Macs report the change in inventory.
