    Whole Disk Recovery Token (WDRT): A token that is created automatically when your disk is encrypted. The token is sent to the SEE Management Server. If you forget your password, you can contact your SEE Management Server administrator and request the WDRT. The WDRT is then entered into the PGP BootGuard screen in place of the user name/password combination that is normally required. Once the WDRT is used, a new token is generated and sent to the server.

    You might wanna look in to the release notes, I am not much sure about the issue, however the release notes talks about kinda a similar issue.
