TPM Management - tpm_setclearable
tpm_setclearable - disable TPM clear operations
tpm_setclearable [OPTION]
tpm_setclearable reports the status of the TPM's flags regarding how the
TPM can be cleared. This is the default behavior and also accessible via the
--status option. Requesting a report of this status prompts for the
owner password. The --owner option requests that the TPM disable clear
operations (via the TPM_DisableOwnerClear API) disabling the owner from
clearing out the ownership information. This operation prompts for the owner
password. This operation is in effect until the current owner is cleared. The
--force option (via the TPM_DisableForceClear API) disables using
Phyiscal Presence to authorize a clear operation. This operation does not
require authorization and will skip the owner password prompt. This operation
is only in effect until a reboot.
