Original Abstract Submitted

An information handling system includes a virtual trusted platform module (TPM) consumer associated with a virtual machine. The virtual TPM (vTPM) consumer may consume TPM services from a clustered vTPM domain service and determine the connection information of the vTPM domain service. The vTPM consumer transmits a connection request for a TPM operation request to the vTPM domain service, wherein the connection request includes a payload in addition to the connection information. The consumer may also receive a response associated with the TPM operation request from the vTPM domain service.
