MDE apparently blocks MacOS Monterey 12.1 / 12.2 upgrades?
The last days we have encountered a situation where the upgrade to MacOS Monterey 12.1 or 12.2 fails. After several reboots the machine returns to the state before the upgrade started, with the ad...

Thanks a bunch - so it might not be a bug but a feature then.
Not the first time a feature that remains in a "not configured" state leads to unforeseen side effects. We will have a closer look at the DLP settings in Endpoint Manager/Intune.

Right now I'm in the process of completely disabling DLP agent/daemon for MacOS since it makes the computers very slow and laggy. Especially in the browser (tested with Chrome and Edge). In the browser, the worst effect is when you type something in the search bar, when the DLP daemon runs (along MDE), you will notice that what you type is laggy and has a delay. If you disable DLP daemon and make sure the process doesn't run anymore "ps aux | grep dlpdaemon", you'll notice it's back to being very responsive and fast, as it should.
Make sure you don't see this process running or else, disable it using Intune and policies until they get this behaviour under control as the computers become way too slow when it is enabled and things timeout or even crash (like the update)
/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/DLP/com.microsoft.dlp.daemon.app/Contents/MacOS/dlpdaemon --daemon
You can determine if DLP is enabled if you run "mdatp health"
If you see that data_loss_prevention_status near the end, is not stopped or dormant, it means it is most likely enabled and affecting your performance.
