Validate Baseline

  1. To validate the Baseline, open the Workspace ONE UEM Admin console and go to Devices > Devices and click on the friendly name of one of your Windows computers.  
  2. Click on the Baselines tab.  It is possible that the status will show a black check mark, indicating that it has not yet applied.  If so, this is because the device has not yet checked in and been notified that the Baseline is awaiting.
    •  If you see a black check mark,  log in to that specific Windows VM and click the Sync Device button in the Intelligent Hub screen. Optionally, you can find the purple Intelligent Hub icon on the taskbar in the lower right corner.  Right click it and click Sync in order to force synchronization.  On the Windows VM, you should see a message within a few seconds indicating that policies have been applied.
  3. In the Workspace ONE UEM Admin console, go to Devices > Devices and click on the friendly name of one of your Windows devices and navigate to the Baselines tab.  You should now see that the status column shows a green check mark.
  4. Under the Compliance column, it likely shows Not Available or Intermediate.  Click whatever the text says, under the Compliance column.  You will see the compliance status of each of the settings from the Baseline, including those that were modified.  Given more time, the status will update from Not Available after a short while.
  5. You can close the Compliance window.
