How to Install the MBAM 1.0 Group Policy Template

In addition to the server-related features of Microsoft BitLocker Administration and Monitoring (MBAM), the server setup application includes an MBAM Group Policy template. You can install this template on any computer that is capable of running the Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) or Advanced Group Policy Management (AGPM).

The following steps describe how to install the MBAM Group Policy template.

Note   Make sure that you use the 32-bit setup on 32-bit servers and the 64-bit setup on 64-bit servers.

To install the MBAM Group Policy template

  1. Start the MBAM installation wizard; then, click Install on the Welcome page.

  2. Read and accept the Microsoft Software License Terms, and then click Next to continue the installation.

  3. By default, all MBAM features are selected for installation. Clear all feature options except for Policy Template, and then click Next to continue the installation.

    Note   The installation wizard checks the prerequisites for your installation and displays the prerequisites that are missing. If all the prerequisites are met, the installation continues. If a missing prerequisite is detected, you must resolve the missing prerequisite and then click Check prerequisites again. Once all prerequisites are met, the installation will resume.

  4. After the MBAM Setup wizard displays installation pages for the selected features, click Finish to close MBAM Setup.
