Restoring the Service Tag using Easy Restore
Use the Easy Restore feature if you do not know the Service Tag of your system. The Easy Restore feature
allows you to restore your system’s Service Tag, license, UEFI configuration, and the system configuration
data after replacing the system board. All data is backed up in a rSPI card automatically. If BIOS detects a
new system board and the Service Tag in the rSPI card, BIOS prompts the user to restore the backup
information.
1. Turn on the system.
If BIOS detects a new system board, and if the Service Tag is present in the rSPI card, BIOS displays
the Service Tag, the status of the license, and the UEFI Diagnostics version.
2. Do one of the following:
• Press Y to restore the Service Tag, license, and diagnostics information.
