Next steps
1. Install the Trusted Platform Module (TPM).

b. Internal USB key (if applicable)
c. USB 3.0 module

3. Reconnect all cables to the system board.
NOTE:
Ensure that the cables inside the system are routed along the chassis wall and secured using the cable securing
bracket.
4. The Easy Restore feature restores several configuration settings, most notably the Service Tag, iDRAC Licenses, and OEM
ID Modules (if needed for the last two). Refer to the Restoring the Service Tag Using Easy Restore page. When the system
board is booted for the first time it will present a screen with settings it can restore.
