VMware : TPM 2.0 device detected but a connection could not be established

[localhorst]

Hello. I am using a HPE Proliant DL360 Gen10 with TPM 2.0 module. During bootup all is ok with TPM. In ILO it tells me Present and enabled.. Module Type: 2.0.
So far so good.

But the ESXi UI gets me this error. "TPM 2.0 device detected but a connection could not be established"

I have UEFI Only, Secure Boot. I don't understand FIFO vs. CRM setting. Intel TXT also enabled.

Does anybody using VMware in such a configuration and got TPM running?

Hello @localhorst  
Please set the TPM setting in BIOS for Current TPM 2.0 Active PCR's to SHA256 only and check if that addresses the issue.
