NOTE: If you are using Easy Restore, you do not have to import an existing iDRAC Enterprise license.

a Use the Easy Restore feature to restore the service tag. See the Restoring the Service Tag by using the Easy Restore feature
section.
b If the service tag is not backed up in the backup flash device, enter the system service tag manually. See the Entering the

Restoring the Service Tag using Easy Restore
The easy restore feature allows you to restore your Service Tag, license, Personality module, 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.
NOTE: The NX Series systems support only BIOS mode. Do not change the boot mode to UEFI because the system will not load
the appliance OS when in UEFI mode.
Below is a list of options available:
• Restore the service tag, license, and diagnostics information, press Y
NOTE: When the restore process is complete, BIOS prompts to restore the system configuration
data.
• To restore the system configuration data, press Y
NOTE: After the restore process is complete, system reboots.
Manually update the Service Tag
After replacing a system board, if Easy Restore fails, follow this process to manually enter the Service Tag, using System Setup.
