TPM chip in UCSB-B200-M3 and VMWare ESXi 5.5

Hello,

 

I have question about proper enabling TPM functionality in UCS and VMWare.

I installed TPM chip in Cisco blade UCS B200-M3 and I enabled TXT and TPM functionality in BIOS according to Cisco user manual.

Blade rebooted with no problems and bios does show TPM configured (attached screenshot).

Unfortunately I can not figure out how to enabled TPM functionality in VMWare.

 

The esxcli command shows lack of TPM:

# esxcli hardware trustedboot get

   Drtm Enabled: false

   Tpm Present: false

 

The query "QueryTpmAttestationReport" in webinterface of the ESXi and vCenter

does not show any PCR entries (screenshot attached). In addition bios shows entry "TPM Owner status: unowned".

I can not find any option/setting in vCenter or ESXi to manipulate with TPM functionality.

 

I searched through KBs in Cisco and VMWare and I can not find any specific information about troubleshooting TPM in ESXi or vCenter. 

 

I would appreciate some help in this matter.

 

Thank you,

Robert
