Administrator Guide
Badge Volume Type and Status
A non-boot volume configured for encryption. The Security and Privacy badge
denotes a FileVault-protected partition.
Multiple drives and no encryption.
NOTE:
The volume icon without a badge indicates that nothing has been done to the
disk. This is not a boot disk.
5. Click the Removable Media tab to view the status of the volumes targeted for encryption. The following table lists
examples of volume configurations for removable media.
Badges and icons may differ slightly depending on your operating system.
Badge Status
A dimmed volume icon indicates an unmounted device. Reasons include:
● User may have chosen not to provision it.
● The media may be blocked.
NOTE:
A red circle/slash badge on this icon indicates a partition that is excluded from
protection because it is not supported. This includes FAT32-formatted
volumes.
The saturated volume icon indicates a mounted device. The no-write badge indicates
that it is read-only. Encryption is enabled, but the media is not provisioned and
Encryption External Media Access to unencrypted Media is set to Read Only.
Media encrypted by Encryption External Media, denoted by a Dell badge.
