Abstract

The invention discloses a method for managing BIOS (Basic Input Output System) configuration by a baseboard management controller and a medium, and the method comprises the following steps that: traversing of all startup hardware of equipment is carried out, and a hardware number is configured for each startup hardware; a user sets BIOS configuration parameters for each piece of startup hardware as required, and stores the hardware number and the BIOS configuration parameters in a baseboard management controller; and during startup, the BIOS acquires the hardware number and the BIOS configuration parameters from the baseboard management controller, and the BIOS determines hardware corresponding to the equipment to be initialized according to the hardware number and executes initializationaccording to the BIOS configuration parameters. The user sets and modifies BIOS configuration parameters and selects startup hardware through a user interface provided by the baseboard management controller, the BIOS configuration parameters and the hardware number of the startup hardware are directly provided for the BIOS through the baseboard management controller, and the BIOS executes startupinitialization according to the BIOS configuration parameters and the hardware number. The BIOS configuration parameter synchronization conflict in the prior art is eliminated, and the startup speed is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of BIOS, in particular to a method and a medium for a baseboard management controller to manage BIOS configuration. Background technique [0002] BIOS (Basic Input / Output System) is a set of programs solidified on the motherboard of the computer. It stores the most important basic input and output programs of the computer, the self-test program after power-on and the system self-starting program. [0003] The BIOS provides a user interface for changing the configuration of the BIOS. The user modifies the configuration through the user interface provided by the BIOS to determine the initialization of the hardware and the boot sequence. In the server, the baseboard management controller of the server motherboard provides another user interface. The user interface provided by the baseboard management controller modifies the configuration to determine hardware initialization and boot sequence, etc. Therefore, a ...
