Problems solved by technology

If the same button is used to control the boot, it will inevitably delay the time when the boot signal reaches each motherboard, so some motherboards often cannot be turned on.
At this time, if you press the power button again, the normally turned on motherboard will be turned off.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for controlling startup of multi-mainboard equipment by utilizing an embedded controller. The method comprises the following steps: S1, sending a startup signal to the embedded controller through a startup key; S2, after the embedded controller detects the starting-up signal, sending the starting-up signal to a plurality of main boards at the same time; and S3, enabling the embedded controller to judge whether the plurality of mainboards are normally started or not by monitoring the voltages of the plurality of mainboards, and if the plurality of mainboards are not started, enabling the embedded controller to send the starting signal to the mainboards which are not started again. The starting process of the multi-mainboard equipment can be controlled through the EC chip, the rotating speed of the fan in the whole machine can be intelligently adjusted, and therefore it is guaranteed that the whole equipment can run healthily and safely for a long time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of booting systems, in particular to a system and method for controlling the booting of multi-main board equipment by using an embedded controller. Background technique [0002] For some large-scale energy consumption monitoring equipment and network security servers, the host needs to process and store a huge amount of data, so a single motherboard is not up to the job. At this time, multiple motherboards are usually required to work together to process and store a large amount of data through superimposed performance. [0003] Multiple motherboards are usually mounted on one chassis and powered by the same ATX power supply. For devices with multiple motherboards, the booting of the motherboard is a big problem. If a power-on button is configured for each motherboard on the whole machine, then each button needs to be pressed one by one when starting up. Such a design is not only cumbersome to operate and...
