Sub Options And Arguments For tpm Option

The following table lists the sub-options and arguments for the tpm option.
Table 1. Sub-options and Arguments for the tpm Option
Option Sub-option Arguments Description
tpm --tpmsecurity off Does not report the presence of TPM to the operating system.
    onwithpbm Directs the BIOS to store the TCG compliant measurements to the TPM during a POST operation.
    onwithoutpbm Directs the BIOS to bypass the preboot measurements.

Example:

A:>syscfg tpm --tpmsecurity=onwithoutpbm
--setuppwdoverride
  --tpmactivation enabled Enables and activates the TPM feature.
    disabled Disables and deactivates the TPM feature.
    nochange Does not alter the operational state of the TPM feature.

Example:

A:>syscfg tpm --tpmactivation=enabled --setuppwdoverride
  • NOTE: You cannot set tpmactivation when tpmsecurity is set to off.
  • NOTE: After setting tpmactivation to enabled or disabled, if you reboot your system, DTK displays the TPM Configuration Honoured system will reset and the system reboots again message and reboots.
  • NOTE: When you set tpmactivation to enabled or disabled, DTK displays the value of tpmactivation as nochange. However, the TPM feature is activated/deactivated when you reboot the system.
  --tpmclear NA Clears the contents of the TPM chip without erasing the tpmsecurity and tpmactivation settings.

Example:

A:>syscfg tpm --tpmactivation=enabled --tpmclear --setuppwdoverride
  --undotpmclear NA

Cancels the result of the tpmclear setting. If you specify this setting before specifying the tpmclear setting, the There is currently no pending TPM Clear request message is displayed.

Example:

A:>syscfg tpm --tpmactivation=enabled --undotpmclear --setuppwdoverride
  --valsetuppwd < string>

Validates the setup password for TPM authentication. If you try to change DTK settings, you are prompted to enter this password to access the settings. For more information on delimiters, see Command Line Option Delimiters .

Example:

A:>syscfg tpm --tpmactivation=enabled --tpmclear --valsetuppwd=<setup_password>
  --setuppwdoverride NA

On systems that do not have a setup password configured, if you set this option, you are not prompted for a password to access DTK settings. 

A:>syscfg tpm --tpmactivation=enabled --tpmclear --setuppwdoverride
