environments. It is a requirement for the Intel Trusted Execution Technology (TXT) security feature, which
must be enabled in the BIOS settings for a compute node equipped with a TPM.
The UCS X210c M6 Compute Node supports the Trusted Platform Module 2.0, which is FIPS140-2 compliant
(UCSX-TPM3-002=).
To service the TPM, use the following tasks:
• Enabling the Trusted Platform Module, on page 60
• Removing the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), on page 61.
Removing the TPM is supported only for recycling and e-waste purposes if the
compute node decommissioned.
Caution
Enabling the Trusted Platform Module
Use this task to enable the TPM:
Step 1 Install the TPM hardware.
a) Decommission, power off, and remove the compute node from the chassis.
b) Remove the top cover from the compute node as described in Removing and Installing the Compute Node Cover, on
page 15.
c) Install the TPM to the TPM socket on the compute node motherboard and secure it using the one-way screw that is
provided. See the figure below for the location of the TPM socket.
d) Return the compute node to the chassis and allow it to be automatically reacknowledged, reassociated, and
recommissioned.
e) Continue with enabling TPM support in the compute node BIOS in the next step.
