Plugin State:
• BitLocker Plugin:
Starting - Manager is starting up. Because this is a fairly quick process, it is unlikely an inventory
update would capture this so you would probably never see this state in the Management
Console.
Disabled - Manager is disabled by policy and not enforcing any previously received policy.
Active - Manager is running normally and enforcing policies.
No Policy - Initial policy has not been received so the plugin is not actively enforcing any policy.
This is only relevant the very first time you install the Manager client. Manager does not start a
plugin until an initial policy is received from the Dell Server, versus starting the plugin with some
default policy placed on the client during install. After an initial policy has been received from the
Dell Server, via the activation process, plugins are always started with the last policy the client is
aware of.
OpSys Not Supported - Manager does not support this operating system. Manager is not actively
enforcing policy related to this plugin, due to this plugin-specific exception.
• TPM Plugin:
Starting - Manager is starting up. Because this is a fairly quick process, it is unlikely an inventory
update would capture this so you would probably never see this state in the Management
Console.
Disabled - Manager is disabled by policy and not enforcing any previously received policy.
Active - Manager is running normally and enforcing policies.

Dell Server, via the activation process, plugins are always started with the last policy the client is
aware of.
• SED Plugin:
Initialized - Manager is initialized waiting for delayed startup
