What do the device icons mean?
I'm looking in the Devices list and about half my workstations have yellow triangles with exclamation (!) characters in them. Where is the documentation for what the icons mean? It's not included with in the Help menu and I've googled around.
I did find one site that described the symbol as "System has a warning condition" - but that doesn't tell you anything.
Cheers.

Well in my extremely limited use of this product so far, I did find that systems showing up with a yellow triangle, when visited, showed that there was a chassis intrusion warning that needed clearing.
It's just something to try....who knows, I may even be right ;-)

No, no. You're overthinking this....
If you ever opened up any Dell case to install memory, etc. you'll see that when you restart you may get a warning message (although now there is a BIOS setting to Enabled, Silent which won't generate the message)
Go into the BIOS in one of you "yellow triangle" systems and under the Security page, check for Chassis intrusion. It may say something to the effect of "Active" or "Detected".
You can either set the warning to Acknowledged or completely turn off the warning all together.
Then check again in IT Assistant and see if the triangle goes away and turns to the green check mark.
