AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, a typical server is preloaded with a single BIOS preset configuration, which may not be the best choice for the user's different needs
Additionally, server-specific BIOS configurations are often complex and may be tightly coupled to the hardware mix in each rack server
Traditionally, the administrator needs a man-machine interface and an OS application to change the BIOS configuration for the rack server, which limits the initial configuration of the rack server

Abstract

The present invention relates to a system and method for managing basic input and output system settings, in particular to a BIOS whose configuration can be stored in a computer system. The default BIOS state can be set as a locked state. The BIOS state may be changed from the locked state to the unlocked state when an authentication request is received and when the authentication information of the received authentication request matches the authentication information stored in the BIOS. In some embodiments, a BIOS setting change request may be received. The BIOS setting can be modified based on the BIOS setting change request. After the modification of the BIOS setting is completed, the BIOS state can be changed back to the locked state.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a server device, and more particularly to a method for managing basic input output system (BIOS) setting configuration of a computing device. Background technique [0002] Many technologies have been developed to remotely manage the operation of computer servers in a manner that provides ease of access, consistency, and efficiency. Remote management allows removal of the server's input / output interfaces (eg, screen, keyboard, and mouse). For example, large data centers contain many servers, and use various remote management tools, such as simple terminal connections, remote desktop applications, and other software tools, to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot server hardware and software. administer such servers. [0003] In a typical computer system (eg, a rack server in a data center), BIOS software applications are stored on a BIOS chip located on a motherboard of the computer system. When the computer system is ...
