What does NTSTATUS 0xC0210035 (STATUS_FVE_NOT_ALLOWED_ON_CLUSTER) mean?

STATUS_FVE_NOT_ALLOWED_ON_CLUSTER

Meaning and context of STATUS_FVE_NOT_ALLOWED_ON_CLUSTER

The volume is part of a cluster, so a normally valid single-machine BitLocker operation has been rejected. This is not an access-control failure and it does not establish that encryption data is corrupt.

Determine whether the target is a physical disk resource, a CSV, or another clustered storage role, and use the supported cluster procedure rather than the generic local-disk path. Note the current owner node and application impact before any change.

Do not force a local operation by removing the volume from the cluster or disabling protection without a recovery and failover plan. Clustered BitLocker management relies on the cluster’s view of the storage and its ownership model.
