Problems solved by technology

[0002] The hardware configurations of PCs, servers, and storage systems produced by various computer manufacturers are becoming more and more abundant, and the matching devices and operating systems are varied. When users install and update drivers, the complexity is greatly increased. Users often encounter I don’t know how to check where to download the corresponding driver of this machine under a certain operating system. When installing the driver, there are dependencies between the drivers, and the driver version does not meet the requirements, so the installation fails, etc.
The existing solutions in the industry can basically be summarized into the following two types: one is to match the hardware information according to the navigation code provided by the manufacturer in advance, and then update the driver according to the matched list of drivers to be updated. It is necessary to enter the navigation code when updating the driver. Once the configuration of the machine is changed after leaving the factory, or the navigation code is lost, this method cannot accurately match the driver; the other is to match the driver based on the device information detected by the program. , has a certain intelligent driver update capability, but they are all limited to the Windows platform, and the versatility is poor

Embodiment Construction

[0022] The method of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0023] Referring to the accompanying drawings, the content of the present invention will be described with specific examples to realize the process of implementing the general automatic driver program update method described in the present invention.

[0024] The specific steps are as follows, as attached figure 1 Shown:

[0025] 1) The user starts the driver smart update program;

[0026] 2) The driver intelligent update program queries the characteristic information of the machine, including the list of system information and device information. The system information includes system manufacturer such as Inspur, machine model such as TS850, operating system version such as Fedora Core 10 (kernel 2.6.27.5-117.fc.i686), and operating system language such as en_US.utf-8. A single entry in the device information list includes the device manufacturer ID such...

Abstract

The invention provides a general automatic updating method for a drive program, which comprises the following steps: inquiring local characteristic information, building network connection, inquiring whether an updatable drive exists in a server side, downloading a drive, and installing the drive. If the coverage of a drive program library of the server side is large enough, the drive updating program realized on the basis of the automatic updating method for a drive program can theoretically support all machine types, all external equipment and all commercial release version operation systems of all manufacturers, the drive updating work can be finished in a one-key automatic mode, the system maintenance complexity is greatly lowered, and therefore the general automatic updating method for a drive program has the advantages of wide development prospect and extremely high technical value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of driver program updating, in particular to a general automatic driver program updating method. Background technique [0002] The hardware configurations of PCs, servers, and storage systems produced by various computer manufacturers are becoming more and more abundant, and the matching devices and operating systems are varied. When users install and update drivers, the complexity is greatly increased. Users often encounter I don’t know how to check where to download the corresponding driver of this machine under a certain operating system, when installing the driver, there are dependencies between the drivers, and the driver version does not meet the requirements, resulting in installation failure and other problems. The existing solutions in the industry can basically be summarized into the following two types: one is to match the hardware information according to the navigation code provided by the manufacturer in...
