Abstract

The present invention provides a method for managing dual baseboard management controllers, comprising: connecting to a first baseboard management controller, sending an instruction to the first baseboard management controller, and judging whether the instruction has bridging parameters, and when the instruction has bridging parameters, Send a command to the second baseboard management controller through the bus, the second baseboard management controller generates a response signal according to the command, the first baseboard management controller receives the response signal and sends the response signal to the management interface, when the command does not have bridge parameters, The first baseboard management controller executes the corresponding operation according to the instruction, and sends the operation result to the management interface.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a server system, in particular to a server system with dual substrate management controllers and a management method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the development of servers becoming more and more mature, the chassis configuration of today's servers is quite flexible. For example, in a 4U chassis, 3U can be assigned to the display adapter and 1U to the host computer. In other words, there are two relatively independent motherboards in a 4U chassis, and they are managed and monitored by their respective Baseboard Management Controllers (BMC). [0003] Since the display adapter lacks a local interface, if one wants to control the display adapter through the baseboard management controller, the existing method can only be managed through the network interface. However, if the network ports of the two motherboards are connected with network cables, additional management costs will be added and more network r...
