							 TPM Management - tpm_setownable

NAME
tpm_setownable - change whether the TPM allows tpm_takeownership operations SYNOPSIS
tpm_setownable [OPTION] DESCRIPTION
tpm_setownable reports the status of the TPM's flags regarding if the TPM can be owned. This is the default behavior and also accessible via the --status option. Requesting a report of this status prompts for the owner password. The --allow option sets the system's TPM to allow tpm_takeownership operations (via the TPM_SetOwnerInstall API). This operation requires physical presence. The --prevent option (via the TPM_SetOwnerInstall API) prevents the TPM from accepting tpm_takeownership operations. This operation requires physical presence. These operations are persistent. tpm_takeownership requires the tpm be enabled. -h, --help Display command usage info. -v, --version Display command version info. -l, --log [none|error|info|debug] Set logging level. -u, --unicode Use TSS UNICODE encoding for passwords to comply with applications using TSS popup boxes -s, --status Report the status of flags regarding if the TPM can be owned. -a, --allow Allow tpm_takeownership operations. -p, --prevent Prevent tpm_takeownership operations. -z, --well-known Authenticate using 20 bytes of zeros as owner password (the default TSS Well Known Secret), instead of prompting for an owner password.

							  TPM Management - tpm_setenable

NAME
tpm_setenable - change TPM enable states SYNOPSIS
tpm_setenable [OPTION] DESCRIPTION
tpm_setenable reports the status of the TPM's flags regarding the enable state of the TPM. This is the default behavior and also accessible via the --status option. Requesting a report of this status prompts for the owner password. The --enable option changes the system's TPM to the enabled state (via the TPM_OwnerSetDisable API). This operation prompts for the owner password and is persistent. The --disable option (via the TPM_OwnerSetDisable API) changes the system's TPM to the disabled state. This operation prompts for the owner password and is persistent. A disabled TPM is essentially off and does not allow a tpm_takeownership to occur. The --force option overrides the owner password prompt and relies on physical presence for the operation authorization (via the TPM_PhysicalEnable and TPM_PhysicalDisable APIs). The --enable, --disable, and --status options are mutually exclusive and the last one on the command line will be carried out. -h, --help Display command usage info. -v, --version Display command version info. -l, --log [none|error|info|debug] Set logging level. -u, --unicode Use TSS UNICODE encoding for passwords to comply with applications using TSS popup boxes -s, --status Report the status of flags regarding the TPM enable states. -e, --enable Make the TPM enabled. Operation is persistent and prompts for owner authorization. -d, --disable Make the TPM disabled. Operation is persistent and prompts for owner authorization. -f, --force Overrides the prompt for owner authorization and uses physical presence to authorize the action. -z, --well-known Authenticate using 20 bytes of zeros as owner password (the default TSS Well Known Secret), instead of prompting for an owner password.
