8.1.2 Registering smart devices in a CSV file
You can import a CSV file containing information about multiple smart devices to register them in a batch.
Prerequisites
-
You must log in by using a user account with the system administrator permission.
-
You must create a CSV file.
-
To register a smart device as a managed device, in advance you must create a security policy and Android policy, or a security policy and iOS profile.
Procedure
-
Display the Smart Device module.
-
In the menu area, select Smart Device, and then Managed Smart Device List.
-
From Action, select Import Smart Device List.
-
In the dialog box that appears, select the CSV file containing information about the smart devices, and then click OK.
- Important
-
For Name to be specified for the CSV file, use the following characters only:
-
0 to 9 (ASCII code 0x30 to 0x39)
-
A to Z (ASCII code 0x41 to 0x5a)
-
a to z (ASCII code 0x61 to 0x7a)
-
_ (underscore) (ASCII code 0x5f)
-
- (hyphen) (ASCII code 0x2d)
-
. (period) (ASCII code 0x2e)
-
- Important
-
For User Name, Department and Account, you cannot use the following characters:
-
, (comma) (ACSII code 0x2c)
-
" (double quotation)
-
- Important
-
If a name that is already registered in JP1/ITDM2 - SDM is entered for Name to be specified for the CSV file, information about the registered smart device is overwritten.
- Important
-
When you add a smart device and use the same name which already exists, the new device information will overwrite the existed device's information. Then you cannot change its OS type. If you change its OS type, the device you add will be ignored.
- Important
-
When you reregister a smart device, use the same name. Avoid to use the name which already exists when you register a smart device. Otherwise, JP1/IT Desktop Management 2 - Smart Device Manager treats the device as the same device which already exists.
Result
The smart devices are registered in JP1/ITDM2 - SDM. Note that the management status of the smart devices varies depending on whether security rules were applied.
-
If the smart devices are registered with an entered security policy and Android policy, or an entered security policy and iOS profile:
The smart devices are managed, and are displayed in the Managed Smart Device List view.
-
If the smart devices are registered without a security policy and Android policy, or without a security policy and iOS profile:
The smart devices are unmanaged, and are displayed in the Unmanaged Smart Device List view.
