Restoring the system using Easy Restore
The easy restore feature enables you to restore your service tag, license, UEFI configuration, and the system configuration data after
replacing the system board. All data is backed up in a backup flash device automatically. If BIOS detects a new system board, and the
service tag in the backup flash device, BIOS prompts the user to restore the backup information.

• Restore the service tag, license, and diagnostics information, press Y
• Navigate to the Lifecycle Controller based restore options, press N.
• Restore data from a previously created Hardware Server Profile, press F10
