I installed my first UEFI disk yesterday. Seemed to go fine. CentOS 7.6

I then took that disk "out" of that machine and put it another machine - it
seems to not even boot.
I put the original disk back in that machine and it boots fine.

I put the UEFI disk back in the machine I built it on and it works fine.
They are similar machines either and i3 and i7.

Shouldn't that work?  Build a UEFI disk on machine A - move it to machine B?

I think the issue is that the UEFI firmware doesn't know which UEFI boot loader 
to load.  I think this should help:

Boot into rescue mode, and run:

efibootmgr --create --label CentOS --disk /dev/sda1 --loader 
"\EFI\centos\shim.efi"

I think you then should end up in a happy place.  You can probably add that 
entry by hand within the UEFI config itself.

HTH,
