Issue/Introduction:

Description

Bitlocker encrypted client systems with Network Boot as the first Boot option may receive the message that Bitlocker requests a Recovery key at each start up.

Solution

Set the Configuration Policy parameter 'Let PXE choose the boot sequence' to 'true' (1) This leads to return control to the BIOS to proceed to the next device in the boot sequence and therefore bypass the bitlocker obstacle.
The parameter is located in 'DSM/Scalability Server/OSIM/ManagedPC/Server'.
