Be sure to keep the recovery password secure. Do not keep it near a server running
BitLocker.

content of the partition encrypted by BitLocker cannot be referenced any
more. The recovery password might be required at startup of the OS after
the following:

To reinstall the operating system into a partition that is encrypted with BitLocker, delete the
BitLocker-encrypted partition prior to reinstallation.
The NIC teaming feature, which used to be provided by network interface card (NIC) vendors, is
built into Windows Server 2016. In Windows Server 2016, this feature is also called "load
balancing and failover (LBFO)".
