Server FRU information updating method, device and equipment and storage medium

Abstract

The invention discloses a server FRU information updating method and device, equipment and a storage medium, and the method comprises the steps: obtaining an updating instruction, and modifying FRU information pre-stored on BIOS firmware of a target server according to the updating instruction to obtain modified data corresponding to the FRU information; sending the modified data to a substrate management controller of the target server through an OEM function module on the BIOS firmware, wherein the OEM function module is a function module which is created in the BIOS firmware of the target server in advance and is under a system management mode; and controlling the substrate management controller to update the FRU information burnt in the EEPROM chip by using the modified data after receiving the modified data. According to the method, the FRU information burnt in the EEPROM chip is updated through the OEM function module on the BIOS firmware, a third-party tool does not need to be additionally installed, the modification process is simplified, and meanwhile, the FRU information can take effect immediately without restarting the system.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a server FRU information updating method, device, equipment and storage medium. Background technique [0002] Server FRU information includes server Chassis, Board, and Product information, and the detailed information includes Part Number, Serial Number, Name, and Data information of each part, providing asset information management for manufacturers and customers. Manufacturers can confirm the batch, authenticity, warranty status, etc. of the equipment based on the Serial Number and the Part Number. This information can also be viewed by customers themselves. Therefore, the correct FRU format and field definitions are particularly important for asset management and back-end operation and maintenance for customers. important. Although this part of information is often burned into an Eeprom chip on the board when it leaves the factory, it is inevitable that there will ...

Problems solved by technology

However, the ipmitool tool will not be integrated under the OS, which means that if you want to simply modify the FRU information, you need to install the ipmitool toolkit before the current OS or use it after installation, and generally install ipmitool under Linux using the source package form , relying on built-in compilation environments such as make and gcc, some minimalist systems may not necessarily support these environments

In this case, it is extremely complicated and difficult to modify the server FRU information
