I've been testing the use of FileVault 2 & Mavericks clients in the JSS. I also have some Mountain Lion clients but I'll probably just upgrade them to Mavericks. So most likely I'll be dealing only with Mavericks.



Anyhow, I have several systems that are already FileVault 2 encrypted. Would it be best form and easiest to just decrypt the drives before trying to work with these systems and FileVault 2 and the JSS?

@etippett I finally manually decrypted the drives, and stared new encryptions with an institutional key policy.



I did run across the issue of after having turned off FileVault, upon reboot it would want to reenable. This was preventing me from issuing new key.



Check out this thread if you encounter that.


@gskibum Ugh, that's what I was afraid of. Haven't seen the other issue, but it's good to know about in case I do.



Thanks,
Eric
