Embodiment Construction

[0021] The above embodiment, the motherboard system and its setting method, can automatically set the main module and the slave module of the mainboard system, start the main module and one of the slave modules to transmit data; on the other hand, it can be used when the main module of the mainboard system loses the ability , Start the slave module to replace the master module to transfer data, thereby maintaining the normal operation of the system.

[0022] Please refer to figure 1 , Which is a block diagram of a motherboard system according to an embodiment of the present invention. The motherboard system includes a backplane 103, a first motherboard 109, a second motherboard 117, and a host bus interface 131. The backplane 103 is electrically connected to the hard disk 101. The first main board 109 has a master module 107 and the second main board 117 has a slave module 115.

[0023] In this embodiment, the master module 107 and the slave module 115 are a GPIO master and a GPI...

Abstract

The invention relates to a setting method of a main board system, which comprises the following steps: receiving a setting signal of a first pin; setting a signal according to the first pin; judging that the device type is a main module type or a slave module type; when the device type is the slave module type, detecting the potential of a third pin and judging whether the main module exists or not according to the potential of the third pin; entering an active state when the main module does not exist; and entering a standby state when the main module exists.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an input / output device of a device, and particularly relates to an input / output device of a computer system. Background technique [0002] For different computing systems, such as cluster systems, Symmetric Multi-Processing systems (SMP systems, Symmetric Multi-Processing systems), storage servers, and network equipment, install motherboards in racks or in the body ( Mainboards or multi-mainboard systems of mother boards are a typical physical architecture. [0003] For example, the cluster system may include the motherboard as the master node or the motherboard of the computing node. Each computing node has a dedicated regional baseboard management controller to monitor and control the execution of its components and multiple operating states, such as temperature, voltage, fan speed, power supply status, bus errors, system hardware security, etc. [0004] However, in such a motherboard system, there is usually only one input / ...
