HP Trusted Platform Module option Use these instructions to install and enable a TPM on a supported server. This procedure includes three sections: 1. Installing the Trusted Platform Module board (on page 68). 2. Retaining the recovery key/password (on page 68). 3. Enabling the Trusted Platform Module (on page 69). Enabling the TPM requires accessing the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU) ("HP ROM-Based Setup Utility" on page 73). For more information about RBSU, see the HP website (http://www.hp.com/support/smartstart/documentation). TPM installation requires the use of drive encryption technology, such as the Microsoft® Windows® BitLocker™ Drive Encryption feature. For more information on BitLocker™, see the Microsoft website (http://www.microsoft.com). CAUTION: Always observe the guidelines in this document. Failure to follow these guidelines can cause hardware damage or halt data access. When installing or replacing a TPM, observe the following guidelines: • Do not remove an installed TPM. Once installed, the TPM becomes a permanent part of the system board. • When installing or replacing hardware, HP service providers cannot enable the TPM or the encryption technology. For security reasons, only the customer can enable these features. Hardware options installation 67
