Security - Trusted
Platform Module
Trusted Platform Module option kit
The TPM (Trusted Platform Module) is a microcontroller chip that can securely store artifacts used
to authenticate the server platform. These artifacts can include passwords, certificates and
encryption keys. Windows® BitLocker™ Drive Encryption (BitLocker) is a data protection feature
available in Windows Server® 2008. BitLocker leverages the enhanced security capabilities of a
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 1.2. The TPM works with BitLocker to help protect user
data and to ensure that a server running Windows Server 2008 has not been tampered with while
the system was offline.
For more information about TPM, including a white paper, go to:

NOTE:
ProLiant OS pre-installed units will come with the partition required for TPM deployment.
NOTE:
The TPM key is unique to every TPM deployed server and must be retained. Misplacing or
losing the key could result in data loss.

Power Supply
HP has a new design for ProLiant power. The new Common Slot Power Supply bay. This design
provides the customer with commonality in power supplies across multiple platforms to save on
the cost of spares and allows HP to offer multiple power solutions to fit the customers' needs.
Many HP ProLiant Servers come with Common Slot, High Efficiency and Right-Size Power
Supplies. Common Slot (CS) designates commonality of the power supply across multiple
ProLiant servers. HP's new Common Slot power supplies are designed for highest efficiency to
provide power efficiency without degrading performance of the ProLiant. Power Supplies will have
efficiency ratings up to 92%. There are three Right Size power options available, depending on
the configuration of your server. To make sure you select the correct power supply to meet your
configuration, we suggest that you use the HP Power Advisor (
www.hp.com/go/hppoweradvisor
)
to decide the "Right-Size" for your configuration. All HP Common Slot power sources are UL, CE
Mark Compliant, Hot Plug and Redundant.
Common Slot ProLiant
It is highly recommended that you use the HP Power Calculator in defining the "Right-Size" power
supply for your needs. HP offers the following Power Supply Options:
HP 460Watts, Common Slot, 92% Efficiency
HP 750Watts, Common Slot, 92% Efficiency
HP 1200Watts, Common Slot, 90% Efficiency
HP 1200W -48V DC CS Power Supply
HP's ProLiant Common Slot Power supplies (460W & 750W) meet multiple Energy Efficiency
Initiatives. Climate Savers Computing Initiative GOLD, ECOS Consulting 80PLUS GOLD and
plans on offering models that meet the Energy Star for Server requirements when they are
published.
HP's ProLiant Common Slot Power supplies (1200W) meet multiple Energy Efficiency Initiatives.
Climate Savers Computing Initiative Bronze, ECOS Consulting 80PLUS Bronze Power Supply
requirements.
Redundant Power: Optional (1+ 1 or n+n redundant) power supplies can be purchased through
power supply option kits (see Redundant Options for part numbers).
NOTE:
BTO Performance models include two power supplies; BTO Base and Entry models
include one power supply. On CTO models, power supply must be selected from available
