11.2 Enabling the Full Disk Encryption Agent

The ZENworks Adaptive Agent is responsible for device registration, content distribution, and software updates for a device.

In addition to the ZENworks Adaptive Agent, the Full Disk Encryption Agent is installed on devices when ZENworks Full Disk Encryption is activated (full license or evaluation). The Full Disk Encryption Agent is responsible for encrypting and decrypting disks according to the Disk Encryption policy applied to a device.

You should verify that the Full Disk Encryption Agent is enabled. For instructions, see Section 4.1, Configuring Adaptive Agent Features.

IMPORTANT:ZENworks Full Disk Encryption is not supported on Windows devices that use UEFI BIOS. The Full Disk Encryption Agent will not be installed to any UEFI Windows devices in your ZENworks Management Zone.
