more information.

When Setup Password is assigned and this field is

(Unlocked default)

Locked, the system password cannot be changed or

 

disabled at system start-up.

 

See "Using the System Password" on page 76 for more

 

information.

TPM Security

Sets the reporting of the Trusted Platform Module

(Off default)

(TPM) in the system.

 

If Off, the presence of the TPM is not reported to the

 

operating system.

 

If On with Pre-boot Measurements, the system reports

 

the TPM to the operating system and stores the pre-boot

 

measurements to the TPM during POST.

 

If On without Pre-boot Measurements, the system

 

reports the TPM to the operating system and bypasses

 

pre-boot measurements.

TPM Activation

When set to Activate, the TPM is enabled to default

(No Change default)

settings. When set to Deactivate, the TPM is disabled.

 

The No Change state initiates no action. The operational

 

state of the TPM remains unchanged (all user settings for

 

the TPM are preserved).

 

NOTE: This field is read-only when TPM Security is set

 

to Off.

TPM Clear

CAUTION: Clearing the TPM will lose all encryption

(No default)

keys in the TPM. This option prevents booting to the

 

operating system and results in data loss if the

 

encryption keys cannot be restored. Back up the

 

TPM keys prior to enabling this option.

 

When set to Yes, all TPM contents are cleared.

 

NOTE: This field is read-only when TPM Security

 

is set to Off.
