Restoring SC Software from Backup

Restoring the SC software from a backup tar file is provided as a precautionary
measure and is intended for use in extreme cases only. Restoring the SC software
from a backup tar file requires that the SC boards, and therefore the entire system, be
non-operational.
Note: The Restore procedure must be performed on both of the SC boards.
