Embodiment 1

[0023] Embodiment 1: An embodiment when the server leaves the factory, such as figure 1 As shown, a method for recording and managing information on a mainboard chip of a machine includes the following steps: production and assembly of a server; quality testing; judging whether it is qualified, if so, writing the serial number into the mainboard chip BIOSO, otherwise processing separately.

[0024] The specific method is to use a pre-designed DMI tool (i.e. Desktop Management Interface) under the DOS system, and this tool will write the machine information and / or serial number into the motherboard chip. The DMI tool first detects and reads the relevant information of the motherboard: CPU, memory, I / O expansion slot and other information. Then store the above information in a 4KB MIFD (Management Information Format Database, management information data area) in the BIOS. After the reading is completed, the operator can write the machine information and / or serial number into th...

Embodiment 2

[0026] Embodiment 2: as figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of PC management, a method for information recording and management on a machine motherboard chip, comprises the following steps:

[0027] 1. Prepare a bootable DOS disk;

[0028] 2. Copy the DMI (Desktop Management Interface, desktop management interface) tool file: dmicfg.exe to the DOS boot disk, and the tool file can be used for the main board of the same architecture;

[0029] 3. Insert the boot disk into the USB port of Baode server, boot into the DOS system, and enter dmicfg.exe to enter the operation interface;

[0030] 4. In Manufacturer Name: Enter the company name, such as powerleader

[0031] In Product Name: enter the machine model, such as PR2012S

[0032] In Version: Enter the BIOS version, such as 1.0

[0033] In Serial Number: Enter the complete serial number, such as PR2012S2009020021

[0034] 5. After the save is complete, restart the machine.

Embodiment 3

[0035] Embodiment 3: as image 3 As shown, for an embodiment of the server of the intel-ia architecture (i.e. Intel Architecture, Intel Architecture), the method is basically the same as Embodiment 1, the difference is that performing EFI (i.e. Extensible Firmware Interface, extensible firmware interface ) update (necessary for production server), it will prompt Do you want to enter the asset tag? (Do you want to enter the asset tag?) At this time, enter: yes, and then enter the serial number of the machine. If you enter No, the system will jump out of this program;

[0036] EFI is an Intel system architecture BIOS automatic start-up management item, similar to a DOS system, so it does not need a DOS boot disk, because it works in a plain text command line mode, so it will prompt for confirmation

[0037] Taking the linux system as an example, how to check the serial number of the machine: Enter the command: dmidecode t chassis in the terminal to check the serial number of th...

Abstract

The present invention provides a method for recording and managing information on a machine motherboard chip. The method is used when the machine leaves the factory and / or when the machine is managed. The method specifically includes the following steps: S100. The machine is powered on and enters the DOS system; S200. Enter the reading and writing state of the mainboard chip of the machine, write the relevant information and / or serial number of the machine directly on the BIOSO chip of the mainboard and save it; S300. Utilize the desktop management interface (DMI) to query the relevant information of the mainboard, and Including CPU, memory, I / O expansion slot and other information; S400. Users can directly read the above-mentioned information of the BIOS chip of the motherboard under the state of the operating system they use. The method provided by the present invention can quickly and accurately locate and query asset information: only the commonly used commands of the operating system or simple general-purpose detection software can be accurately read and cannot be artificially changed, and this information will not be abnormal or artificial. Factors have changed to facilitate the management and maintenance of assets by managers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for recording and managing information on a main board chip of a machine, and more particularly relates to an asset management method for locating and viewing hardware information of server equipment. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of computer technology in recent years, IT assets are gradually becoming an important tool for enterprise operation and development, but management still cannot be ignored. The size of an enterprise, such as: the number of PCs will range from dozens to thousands or even more If the management is not good, it may cause improper allocation of enterprise IT hardware assets. It can be seen that the management of enterprise IT assets is urgent. [0003] Take office computers used by ordinary enterprises as an example. A company has a lot of office computers. Usually, fixed asset stickers or other labels are attached to the machines as their positioning information. Howev...
