I don't use the Intel TSS, so I can't help you with this command: you
need to ask someone who does use it it, like Phil.

You haven't provided enough information.  If you tell me what the pcr7
value you tied the policy to is, I can run it through the IBM TSS
policy maker and tell you if this is the correct hash.  But obviously,
since it's a hash, I can't reverse it to tell you what the policy it
mandates is.
