TPM Activation
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is an industry standard cryptographic
module that provides attestation, integrity metrics and reporting, and a
secure key hierarchy. Dell client systems use TPM to verify whether the
system’s state has changed between two boot cycles.
Do the following to activate TPM:
1
If not set, set up the BIOS password.
cctk --setuppwd=<new-BIOS-password>
2
Enable TPM.
cctk --tpm=on --valsetuppwd=<BIOS-password>
3
Activate TPM.
cctk --tpmactivation=activate --valsetuppwd=<BIOS-
password>
4
Reboot the system without interruption till the operating system loads.
