unable to determine version of edpa agent using endpoint management systems

Cause

The info.plist was moved to /Library/Manufacturer/Endpoint Agent/CUI.app/Contents/Info.plist after upgrading to 10.15.x.

Where as in 10.14.x and below the info.plist was located at /Library/Manufacturer/Endpoint Agent/macpd.kext/Contents/Info.plist

Environment

Macos 10.15.x

Edpa agent 15.5.x

 

Resolution

Modify the plutil command to check the /Library/Manufacturer/Endpoint Agent/CUI.app/Contents/Info.plist in 10.15.x

For Big Sur and above and the endpoint agent binary changes to SEHA.app

You can find the plist at this location for Big Sur and Monterey:
