Track Usage on MAC devices

Why MAC usage cannot be turned ON while deploying it ?

Is there a way to do it?

The Only option/workaround I know as of now, is to modify config.ini at [ManageSoft\Usage Agent\CurrentVersion] and restart services of mgsusageag and ndtask

If you need to make additional customizations to the settings for Unix based agents it is recommended to use a shell script to install the agent and then use mgsconfig (https://docs.flexera.com/fnms/EN/GatherFNInv/index.html#SysRef/FlexNetInventoryAgent/tasks/FA3-ConfigIni.html) to update any settings.

You can also enable usage tracking for Mac devices using a target as described in option 3 of our usage blog: https://community.flexera.com/t5/FlexNet-Manager-Blog/Application-usage-metering-using-the-FlexNet-inventory-agent/bc-p/146047#_Toc40090822
