Restoring the Service Tag using Easy Restore
The easy restore feature allows 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.
Below is a list of options available:
•
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

data.
