SPARC: TPM Failover Option

SPARC multi-domain servers that have Oracle Solaris 11.4 installed have the ability to fail over the SP/SPP board that contains the TPM. You can enable TPM failover by using the -failover option of the tpmadm command.

The -failover option prompts for the TPM Owner PIN and a new PIN for the Migration Key. These settings will be used to backup and restore the TPM keystore in case the TPM chip fails over to a new TPM chip on another SPARC SP/SPP board.

For instructions, see the backup step in How to Initialize TPM Using the Oracle ILOM Interface (SPARC Only). See also the tpmadm(8) man page.
