			TPM Management - tpm_createek

NAME
       tpm_createek - create an Endorsement Key Pair on the TPM

SYNOPSIS
       tpm_createek [OPTION]

DESCRIPTION
       tpm_createek creates and Endorsement Key Pair on the TPM (via the
       TPM_CreateEndorsementKeyPair API).  This should rarely be required as
       the Endorsement Key is normally installed as part of manufacturing.
       However, you might need to run this command once if commands such as
       tpm_getpubek are returning error code 35 from the TPM layer.

       -v, --version

       -i, --infile [input file]
	      Specifies the file that contains the secret data used as revoke
	      data do the new revocable EK pair. Only the first 20 bytes of
	      this file	 are used and the remaining ones are ignored.

       -g, --generate-secret
	      Generates a random 20 bytes value that is used as the EK pair
	      revocable secret data. Requires -o (see below).
