Computer equipment and configuration management method thereof

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides computer equipment and a configuration management method of the computer equipment in order to solve the problems that configuration management of the computer equipment on PCIE needs to rely on an operation system of the computer equipment, flexibility is poor and system configuration is complex. According to the computer equipment and the configuration management method of the computer equipment, due to the fact that SMMs started in the system and used for control in different stages and a CPU are connected with a PCIE Switch, depending on participation of the CPU of the computer equipment is avoided when the PCIE is managed, and not only can configuration management on the PCIE be achieved when depending on participation of the CPU of the computer equipment is avoided, but also CPU resources are saved; the manageability of the computer equipment is improved, and the requirement of a large data center for simplified management on the computer equipment is met. Meanwhile, the PCIE is connected with the PCIE Switch through a downlink port, no special interface needs to be configured to be connected with the SMMs, and system configuration is simplified.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of information technology, in particular to a computer device and a configuration management method for the computer device. Background technique [0002] With the development of data center and virtualization technology, data network reliability usually depends on network card binding technology. Network card binding requires users to understand the network architecture connecting physical servers at the same time, so as to design a network that is consistent with data center reliability This solution increases the skill requirements for system maintenance personnel, increases the difficulty of server maintenance, and increases system maintenance costs. In order to solve this problem, the management software of the server appears to realize the management. Through the management software, the user no longer needs to consider the reliability of the network networking, but is completely completed by the management soft...
