ConfigMgr SCCM Log file details for Linux Mac Unix Devices. Configuration Manager 2012 SP1 added support for Linux, Macintosh, and Unix operating systems.

As of March 2019, SCCM no longer supports Linux and UNIX endpoints. This change was implemented with the release of version 1902, successfully ending support for SCCM on Linux.

Organizations that formerly relied on SCCM for Linux infrastructure management must now find and implement alternative keys to meet their endpoint management needs.

However, the log file details for these Operating Systems were recently published. The following are the quick details of the Linux, Unix, and Macintosh log files.
