Endpoint Encryption

Hi Guys,

As much as I searched I can not find how to decrypt a disk (two partitions) that was encrypted with SEE-FD serverless.

Someone could tell me how to do that..? SEE version is 11.0 (Build 7726)

thank you very much.

You can do it through the command line.  The documentation for the admin command line guide is here:
http://www.symantec.com/docs/DOC7716

The command you would want is:
eedAdminCli --decrypt --disk <number> --au <AdminUserName> --ap <AdminPassword>

It is on page 28 of the guide.  Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks Mike.

Two questions:

FIRST:

Is possible decrypt a partion only, for example partition 3. ?

For my case this is the exit for eeAdminCli --status:

Disk 0 is instrumented by Drive Encryption.
Disk UUID: e3ee1c21-dcb7-4830-a402-dd69ec6eec1b
  Encryption process complete.
  Current key is valid.
  Current disk block mode is 3
Volume Status - 7
Volume C:\ on partition 2 : Encrypted.
  Total sectors: 209715200 highwatermark: 209715200
  Cipher Algorithm used: AES256
Volume Status - 7
Volume E:\ on partition 3 : Encrypted.
  Total sectors: 412348416 highwatermark: 412348416
  Cipher Algorithm used: AES256
Request sent to Disk status was successful

SECOND:

I had enabled DESR (could verify this when the PC reboot) but appears FALSE. There is a way to enable it by CLI..?

Disk information for disk 0.

Regards.

SEE Drive Encryption only operates on the disk level, and does not encrypt individual partitions.

Understood Mike,

There is a way to enable DESR by CLI..? I had enabled it but appears FALSE.  This is the reason that led me to decrypt the disk again.

Thanks.

Hello There,  

If you haven’t decrypted already, You could try --unregister-user and again –register-user command line options on this disk, which will help you re-configured DESR answers again.
