Embodiment 1

[0031] An implementation method for modifying BIOS Setup options out-of-band. There is an out-of-band management chip BMC on the server motherboard, and the source code of BIOS and BMC firmware is obtained, wherein the user utilizes the standard IPMI in the system POST process through the BIOS and BMC. Commands are used to exchange information and realize the BMC's function of viewing and setting Setup options.

Embodiment 2

[0033] On the basis of Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, the user logs in to the BMC Web management interface of the target machine to view or set the BIOS Setup option.

Embodiment 3

[0035] On the basis of Embodiment 1, the user in this embodiment uses Ipmitool to view or set the BIOS Setup option through the customized OEM command under the BMC of the target machine.

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of BIOS Setup option setting on a server and out-of-band management and discloses a realizing method for modifying the BIOS Setup option out of band. An out-of-band management chip (BMC) is arranged on a server mainboard. The source code of a BIOS and the source code of BMCfirmware are obtained. The BIOS and the BMC utilize standard IPMI instructions to interchange information in the system POST process, so that a user enables the BMC to check and set the Setup option. The method achieves the purposes that the BIOS Setup option is checked and modified in a BMCWeb interface, the system ease of use is improved, and an Ipmitool is used for checking and modifying the BIOS Setup option in the commandline environment. The method can be realized locally or at a far end, brings convenience to users, and improves the system ease of use.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the fields of BIOS Setup option setting and out-of-band management on a server. technical background [0002] With the rapid development of server technology, the performance, functions, and ease of use are continuously enhanced, and there are more and more options in the BIOS Setup in the server. At present, BIOS Setup provides almost all options on the system that can be set by users themselves, so that the system can control the enabling status of functional modules (Enable / Disable, etc.) according to different needs of users to adapt to various use environments . In addition to the usage control of functional modules, Setup also provides basic information of the system, such as CPU, memory, motherboard information, etc. [0003] In the process of using the server, users often inevitably encounter the following two situations: [0004] (1) The user needs to know what value is set for an option in Setup in the currently ru...
