Troubleshooting MEM

Under the Tenant admin blade, you have Tenant status. This is where some important information about your tenant is stored, such as the following:

  • Tenant name and Tenant location: Here, you can see what part of the world your tenant is in—in this case, Europe.
  • MDM authority: MDM stands for mobile device management. This is not as important as it was in the past.
  • Service release: This is important. Here, you can follow whether your tenant has been upgraded to the latest service release.

Intune is a service that Microsoft updates monthly, so depending on where your tenant is located, you may see that your version of Intune is updated before others, based on this deployment schedule:

  1. Day 1: User interface (UI) rolls out to the Asia Pacific region.
  2. Day 2: UI rolls out to Europe, the Middle East, and Africa.
  3. Day 3: UI rolls out to North America.
  4. Day 4+: UI rolls out to Intune for Government.
