How to understand Chrome OS statuses

Problem

You want to understand the ChromeOS Statuses in your Admin console.

Environment

  • Admin Console
  • ChromeOS

Solution

  • Provisioned: This status indicates that the device has been already enrolled and ready to be managed. 
  • Pre-provisioned: This status is seen when you purchase devices compatible with zero-touch enrollment, upon signing in to the device, zero-touch enrollment would take place and the device status would change to "Provisioned"
  • Deprovisioned: This status indicates that the license has been removed from the device and it's no longer being managed by the Admin console. 
  • Suspended: This status indicates that the device has been successfully enrolled, but the subscription has expired.
  • Disabled: This status indicates that the device has been manually disabled by the administrator, this could be used when the device has been stolen or lost.
