(Sets VM HDD size, PITA to do once your in the VM)į. Use AutoDMG to make a 'never booted' DMG of the MacOS installerĮ. Git -C '$(brew -repo homebrew/core)' fetch -unshallow Convert shallow HB History to unswallow with this command: (Im not sure this is required anymore actually) this is all CLI, installs from command on websiteĢ. (thing multi booting) so now I just need 1 serial/model. I later learned its no issue to enroll multiple macs with the same serial. I had our warehouse hold the machines so they dont end up recycled, repaired and back online somewhere in the world. Mind you you need to salvage a actual mac serial and model name. Here is my process for making Fusion VMs that can be enrolled from DEP. Sed -i '' '/ethernet0.generatedAddressOffset/d' '$VMXFILE'Įcho 'hw.model = $MODELIDENTIFIER' > '$VMXFILE'Įcho 'serialNumber = $SERIALNUMBER' > '$VMXFILE' Sed -i '' '/ethernet0.generatedAddress/d' '$VMXFILE' Sed -i '' '/ethernet0.addressType/d' '$VMXFILE' # /path/to/ThisScript.sh /path/to/MyVm.vmwarevm/MyVm.vmxĮcho '**********************************************************'Įcho 'IMPORTANT: To use this script, quit VMware Fusion first!!!'Įcho 'Enter your fake Serial Number, up to 12 characters (letters and numbers).'Įcho 'Enter ModelIdentifier for example MacBookPro15,1 or iMacPro1,1' # This requires sudo rights, but you already knew that, right? :) # You'll be dragging this script into Terminal, then dragging the *.vmx file into Terminal. # To use this script, quit VMware Fusion first!!!

VMWARE FUSION MAC M1 SERIAL NUMBER

Got tired of having to manual set Serial Number and Model nning the below script sort of sysprep's it for wasn't aware of 'serialNumber.reflectHost = 'FALSE', doesn't seem to be needed if the below lines are set. And yes, I know that I have to quit VMWare inbetween each change (or double-click the VMBundle) to force the changes to take effect. I'd have to look at my notes, but I believe it was the serialNumber settings worked/booted (verified serial number in 'About this Mac') but then that test failed MDM enrollment.Īnyone figured out what's changed yet? I really need to test OS upgrades from 10.13 to 10.14, and I don't want to go back to standing up a real machine every time I test after enjoying the last several months with virtualized Macs that enroll in JAMF. SerialNumber = 'INSERT-YOUR-OWN-FAKE-SERIAL-HERE'īut now for some reason, any combination of the above will either cause 10.13.6 VMs on a 10.14.5 Host to kernel panic (with CPU usage maxed out at the number of CPUs assigned to the VM) or fail MDM enrollment similarly to an unmodified VM.

This is working for me under VMWare Fusion 11.1 with 10.14.5 VMs: Once it is all loaded, Click the Apple icon > About this MacĬheck the 'Serial Number (System)' and 'Model Identifier' have been picked up. MacBookPro12,1 = MacBook Pro Retina 13-inch 2015, MacBookPro14,2 = MacBook Pro 13-inch 2017, This changes 'Show in Finder' to 'Open config in editor window'Īdd the 2 lines above to the bottom of the file: SerialNumber = Use your physical macOS Serial number and increment the last numeric digit

This can be fix by adding the following TWO lines into the VMX file for the VM:

VMWARE FUSION MAC M1 INSTALL

MDM Profiles not being able to install macOS profiles because it can't tell if its a Mac, and stops enrolment because the serial number isn't correct.

VMware Fusion doesn't create the serial number and model number correctly for Mac VMs.
