Embodiment Construction
[0044] In order to make the above objects, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and comprehensible, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0045] In the embodiment of the present application, facing the situation that the server cannot easily update the hardware, a Microcontroller Unit (MCU) is used to separately manage different types of hardware components, and the MCU communicates with the baseboard management controller, so that the baseboard management The controller can use a unified management protocol to communicate with the micro control unit, without setting different data transmission protocols, management instructions and other information for different hardware components. Therefore, when the server needs to replace hardware components, the micro-control unit can be used to manage the hardware components, and the baseboard manag...

Embodiments of the present application provide a hardware management method and device, which are applied to a server. The server includes a baseboard management controller and at least one hardware component. The hardware component is correspondingly provided with a micro-control unit. The baseboard management controller and the micro-control unit communication connection. The method includes: the baseboard management controller sends a hardware management instruction to a micro-control unit corresponding to at least one hardware component based on a preset protocol; the micro-control unit performs corresponding processing on the hardware component according to the hardware management command, and sends the hardware management The controller returns feedback data in a preset data format. Therefore, the baseboard management controller can manage various types of hardware components using the same preset protocol by communicating with the microcontroller unit, and there is no need to update the software of the baseboard management controller. Rapid support of components allows servers to easily update their hardware components.
Description
technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a hardware management method and a hardware management device. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, the whole machine management of the server usually needs to manage the hardware components in the server through a baseboard management controller (BMC), so as to realize the whole machine management function. However, there are often multiple types of hardware components in the server, and different types of hardware components have different management methods. Therefore, the software used by the baseboard management controller usually needs to write in advance information such as data transmission protocols and management instructions used by different types of hardware components. , so that different types of hardware components can be managed. [0003] In this case, if the hardware components in the server are changed, the software used by the baseboard...
