Trusted Platform Module (TPM)
A Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for safer storage of keys can be implemented
as an option. This module enables programs from third party manufacturers to
store key information (e.g. drive encryption using Windows Bitlocker Drive
Encryption).
The TPM is activated via the BIOS system (for more information, refer to the
"D385x BIOS Setup Utility for FUJITSU Server PRIMERGY CX2550 M4 /
CX2560 M4 / CX2570 M4" Reference Manual).
V
CAUTION!
– When using the TPM, note the program descriptions provided by the
third party manufacturers.
– You must also create a backup of the TPM content. To do this, follow
the third party manufacturer's instructions. Without this backup, if the
TPM or the system board is faulty you will not be able to access your
data.
– If a failure occurs, please inform your service about the TPM
activation before it takes any action, and be prepared to provide them
with your backup copies of the TPM content.
