Jamf DDM Software Update - schedule specific day.

I'm managing a range of Macs in a multi-user (lab type) environment. After trying lots of ways of automating MacOS patch updates, a Jamf Pro Software Updates DDM blueprint seems to be the most reliable .

The issue I have is that these Macs are used pretty much 24 hours per day, 5 days per week. Because they're not single user devices, I can't rely on the user to run the update from the notification. I can set the "Install At" time and use a low "Days after release to enforce update" but this risks interupting user work, because they might be using the machine at any time of day.

Ideally I'd like an "enforce update by the second Saturday after release", but there doesn't seem to be a way of doing that. Is there a workaround or setting I'm not seeing?

There's a lot of broad sweeping statements made in YouTube videos, especially about colour management!

I'm not really a fan of "this is the right way/that's the wrong way", so this video debunks some things that I hear said online, based on my own experience.

"You should always use Davinci Wide Gamut"

"Pro's don't use LUTs"

"Colour Space Transforms are more accurate than LUTs"

Just because one part of the industry does something one way, doesn't mean other parts do it the same way. I'd be really interested to see how my thoughts from a drama/feature perspective correlate to other people's experiences in other areas.
