\f[B]fapi\-config(5)\f[] to adjust Fapi parameters like the used
cryptographic profile and TCTI or directories for the Fapi metadata
storages.
.PP
\f[B]fapi\-profile(5)\f[] to determine the cryptographic algorithms and
parameters for all keys and operations of a specific TPM interaction

NV from the FAPI metadata store and the TPM.
Depending on the entity type, one of the following actions are taken:
.IP
.nf
\f[C]
\-\ Non\-persistent\ key:\ Flush\ from\ TPM\ (if\ loaded)\ and\ delete\ public\ and\ private\ blobs\ from\ keystore.
\-\ Persistent\ keys:\ Evict\ from\ TPM\ and\ delete\ public\ and\ private\ blobs\ from\ keystore
\-\ Primary\ keys:\ Flush\ from\ TPM\ and\ delete\ public\ blob\ from\ keystore
\-\ NV\ index:\ Undefine\ NV\ index\ from\ TPM\ and\ delete\ public\ blob\ from\ FAPI\ metadata\ store
\-\ Policies:\ Delete\ entry\ from\ policy\ store
\-\ Hierarchy,\ PCR:\ These\ are\ not\ deletable
\-\ Special\ keys\ ek,\ srk:\ These\ are\ not\ deletable

.SH COMMON OPTIONS
.PP
This collection of options are common to all tss2 programs and provide
information that many users may expect.
.IP \[bu] 2
\f[B]\-h\f[], \f[B]\-\-help [man|no\-man]\f[]: Display the tools
manpage.
By default, it attempts to invoke the manpager for the tool, however, on
failure will output a short tool summary.
This is the same behavior if the "man" option argument is specified,
however if explicit "man" is requested, the tool will provide errors
from man on stderr.
If the "no\-man" option if specified, or the manpager fails, the short
options will be output to stdout.
.RS 2
.PP
To successfully use the manpages feature requires the manpages to be
installed or on \f[I]MANPATH\f[], See \f[B]man\f[](1) for more details.
.RE
.IP \[bu] 2
\f[B]\-v\f[], \f[B]\-\-version\f[]: Display version information for this
tool, supported tctis and exit.
.SH EXAMPLE
.SH Deletes storage hierarchy (HS) and everything below it:
.IP
.nf
\f[C]
tss2_delete\ \-\-path=/HS
\f[]
