Trusted Platform Module 2.0

The Trusted Platform Module 2.0 (TPM) is a hardware-based system security feature that securely store artifacts used to
authenticate the platform. These artifacts can include passwords, certificates, and encryption keys.
The TPM 2.0 is embedded on the server system board.
The TPM 2.0 is supported with specific operating system support such as Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 and later. For
more information about Microsoft Windows BitLocker Drive Encryption feature, see the Microsoft website
https://www.microsoft.com.

Trusted Platform Module 2.0 guidelines

CAUTION:
Always observe the TPM guidelines in this section. Failure to follow these guidelines can cause hardware damage or
halt data access.
If you do not follow procedures for modifying the server and suspending or disabling the TPM in the OS, an OS that is
using TPM might lock all data access. This includes updating system or option firmware, replacing hardware such as
the system board and drives, and modifying TPM OS settings.
Changing the TPM mode after installing an OS might cause problems, including loss of data.
Hitachi Vantara SPECIAL REMINDER: Before enabling TPM functionality on this system, you must ensure that your intended
use of TPM complies with relevant local laws, regulations and policies, and approvals or licenses must be obtained if
applicable.
