Enterprise Edition for Mac Resolved Technical
Advisories v8.6.1
● Occasionally, the Security Server/Device Server can take longer than the default timeout period, resulting in activation
timeout errors. A new plist entry has been added to provide greater flexibility in these cases, as follows:
<key>ClientActivationTimeout</key>
<integer>120</integer>[Range: 5 to 300, inclusive. The default value is 30. The time in seconds to give the Security Server/
Device Server time to respond to an activation attempt before giving up. This plist value is valid for clients running
v8.6.0.6627 or later.]
[DDPMS-716]
● The issue of encryption not beginning while logged in as an AD_Domain user that is missing a mobile account locally is
resolved. [DDPMS-717]
● Previously, encryption would never begin when enabling Dell full disk encryption on multiple partitions or volumes. This issue
is resolved, and was only seen on OS X Yosemite. [DDPMS-734]
● All volumes are now properly encrypted when using FV2 and changing encryption from System Volume Only to All Volumes.
[DDPMS-746]
● EMS now ignores all partitions that share physical media with the boot volume. [DDPMS-729]
