Remote Management

Hi Amin, 

I see that, there is a support ticket opened for this issue and an engineer is working on it. 

Was this issue ever resolved as we still receive it

Hi IT Department6 

Could you please provide more details about what is the version of Sophos Mobile you are using? Also, the iOS version on which you are facing the issue?

Hi,

We have SMC 9.0.2 with IOS 12 and above.

When turning the phone on, it connects to WiFi or 4G. We then get a prompt for "Remote management", click next then the message as previous user has posted with cancelled.

We normally get the credentials screen and it proceeds with the iPhone setup, then install Sophos and applies our policy.

This issue occurs every now and again.  If we leave the phone for a few days, it may start working.

Hope the above helps.

Hi IT Department6 

We had such issues earlier where it was a general error with Apple Configurator. To get around this, some users find that after you re-initialize a device, if the device is not connected via WiFi and you try enrolling it manually you will experience that error. However, if you connect the device to the WiFi and retry enrolling it should work. Also, Could you please check and confirm if there are any issues with APN connectivity? 

Hi Shweta,

We don't use Apple Configurator as we are a Windows environment.

I have tried changing to WiFi and 4G but makes no difference.  I tried another phone and it worked straight away, but the original phone still has an issue.

If it was an APN issue, then I would expect no devices to enrol.

Hi IT Department6 

The exact reason behind the failure can be narrowed down through the logs from the iphone only.

Could you please collect the logs from the iOS device and provide us? Please refer to this article in order to collect the logs from the device.

I can't get the logs as this is before the phone has been setup.

Hi IT Department6 

Would it be possible to grab the logs from the server while you try to replicate the issue? Do you have a single APNS Certificate configured in the SuperAdmin for all of your customers?
