14.4.2 Removing the TPM
V CAUTION!
Advise your contact persons that they must provide you with TPM
backup copies. For security reasons, the TPM must be restored/re-
saved by the customer. After installing a new system board, the TPM
must be enabled. You may not clear the TPM data.
If the contact persons DO NOT have a backup copy available, inform
them that replacing the TPM will cause to lose all data.
