Embodiment Construction

[0042] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the application with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the application. Apparently, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of this application.

[0043] At present, the BMC firmware update method is: first download the firmware file to be updated, and then copy the firmware file to the BMC for firmware update. When the BMCs of a large number of servers need to be updated in this firmware update method, firmware copy and firmware update need to be performed on each server, so that the firmware update is time-consuming and the firmware update efficiency is too low. In view of this, the present application proposes a BMC firmwar...

Abstract

The invention discloses a BMC firmware updating method, device and equipment, and a medium. The method comprises the steps: obtaining a firmware updating script; logging in an SMASH CLP of a target BMC by utilizing the firmware updating script; acquiring target information through the SMASH CLP, and logging in a preset https service by using the target information; and downloading a target BMC firmware update mirror image file from the https service according to the target information, so as to update the firmware of the target BMC by utilizing the target BMC firmware update mirror image file.Therefore, the firmware can be updated by utilizing the downloaded firmware mirror image file by logging in the SMASH CLP and then logging in the https service to download the firmware mirror image file needing to be updated, the firmware does not need to be downloaded firstly and then copied and updated one by one by a server, the firmware updating time is saved, and the firmware updating efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of servers, in particular to a BMC firmware update method, device, equipment, and medium. Background technique [0002] BMC (Board Manager Controller, Baseboard Management Controller) is the baseboard management system on the server, responsible for server asset information display, hardware monitoring, cooling control, system configuration, remote monitoring, log collection, fault diagnosis, system maintenance and other important functions. The firmware of the BMC needs to be updated in some cases. Since servers are generally deployed in computer rooms on a large scale, how to update the BMC firmware reliably and efficiently is an important factor in server operation and maintenance. The existing BMC firmware update method is: first download the firmware file to be updated, and then copy the firmware file to the BMC to update the firmware. When the BMCs of a large number of servers need to be upd...
