Embodiment 1

[0032] Example as figure 1 .2.3. Shown.

[0033] In order to realize this solution, the hardware module, the BIOS module and the BMC module need to cooperate together to complete. After the hardware module detects that the platform hardware has changed, it notifies the BIOS module in the form of an interrupt. The BIOS module obtains the current system configuration information through the IPMI interface. Pass the current configuration information to the BMC module, and the BMC module stores the system configuration information in EEPROM and displays it on the BMC interface for users to view. The hardware module mainly refers to the configuration circuit arranged on the main board. It should be noted that the setting method of the configuration circuit is not unique, and all circuits that can realize the idea of ​​this method are within the protection scope of the present invention.

Abstract

Provided is an alarm method for computer hardware configuration changing. System hardware changes are detected in shutdown states which include a shutdown state with a power supply and a shutdown state without a power supply; after the hardware configuration changes, hardware triggers interrupt, platform configuration information is obtained through a BIOS SMI program, a BMC completes the storageand differential display of the configuration information, and the three cooperate to complete the timely and accurate recording of the platform configuration information on a platform body. After thehardware information changes, the BIOS can flexibly and diversely set operation paths according to requirements, and can be set to no operation, or warning information is displayed and the operationis continued, or a system is suspended until an administrator confirms the security and then the system continues to run. The information stored by the BMC enters an EEPROM. After the power is turnedoff, the information can still be saved and does not disappear. A BMC display interface provides a uniform information platform for research staff, testers, and customers. The communication efficiencyis improved, and two configurations are displayed in a differentiated mode, which can remind the customers of the hardware changes.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computers, in particular to an alarm method for computer hardware configuration changes. Background technique [0002] During the research and development process of the server motherboard, a large number of compatibility tests are required. It is necessary to form a platform system with various configurations from various types of CPUs, memory, and different external cards, etc., and then conduct long-term stability and stress tests. Testers should record the platform configuration information. Once a test problem occurs, it can be easily traced and provided to the R&D personnel for analysis. [0003] The server will also conduct a large number of tests before the end customer is officially put into use. After it is put into use, the expansion card will be artificially increased or decreased. These server configuration information changes also need to be recorded. Once the server becomes unstable, it is convenient...
