Secure deployment of solution specific ID module during motherboard replacement

A computer system comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• one or more hardware storage devices that store instructions that are executable by the one or more processors to cause the computer system to:
• in response to a replacement motherboard being installed into a host computing system and being powered on by the host computing system, raise a replacement motherboard event flag;
• after the replacement motherboard is powered on, detect an attempt to log into an out-of-band management platform of the replacement motherboard, where said login involves use of a set of default credentials;
• in response to detecting use of the set of default credentials during the attempted login to the out-of-band management platform, lock user access to the out-of-band management platform;
• trigger the host computing system to power on, wherein, as a result of the host computing system powering on, the host computing system initiates a BIOS boot operation;
• and
• as a part of the BIOS boot operation, provide a user selectable option to restore a previously stored configuration that is usable to configure the replacement motherboard.
