Abstract

The invention discloses an unattended BIOS (Basic Input/output System) configuration method which comprises the following steps: setting configuration information required by a BIOS in a BMC (Block Multiplexer Channel) by a user; supplying a virtual interface for the user to configure the BIOS by the BMC, and storing the configuration information in an EEROM (Electrically Erasable Read-Only Memory); and storing the BIOS configuration information in the EEROM. Compared with the prior art, the unattended BIOS configuration method provided by the invention has the advantages that when BIOS configuration is performed according to the method, the alteration for some configurations is performed by setting BIOS related items in a WEB interface of the BMC in advance by the user under the condition of not losing original configuration information of the BIOS, the manual configuration after startup self-checking/BIOS upgrading is not required, the BIOS can finish self-setting after startup according to the setting in the BMC, and the original configuration information is not lost if the alteration for configuration information and the resetting of the BIOS are not required.

Description

A kind of unmanned BIOS collocation method
Technical field
The present invention relates to field of computer technology, specifically a kind of unmanned BIOS collocation method.
Background technology
BIOS is the abbreviation of English " BasicInputOutputSystem ", and literally rear Chinese is exactly " basic input output system ".In fact, it is one group and is cured in computer the program on a rom chip, self-check program and system self-triggered program after the program of the most important basic input and output of its in store computer, system set-up information, start on mainboard.Its major function provides the bottom, the most direct hardware setting and control for computer.
EEPROM (ElectricallyErasableProgrammableRead-OnlyMemory), EEPROM--the storage chip that after a kind of power down, data are not lost.EEPROM can the existing information of erasing, reprogramming on computers or on special equipment.It is commonly used in plug and play.
Along with developing rapidly of server technology, the upgrading of the upgrading of product, particularly software can be more and more frequent, and the workload of software regular maintenance is increasing, and wherein BIOS upgrades the most important thing especially.
Traditional BIOS upgrading collocation method, not only original configuration information can be lost, and user also needs to wait that BIOS just can configure after having upgraded;So not only resulting in configuration BIOS and there is risk, the most also the waste O&M engineer substantial amounts of time is waiting on BIOS escalation process/start process (available machine time of multipath server is many more than 10 a few minutes).
Disclosed Patents file: entitled " method and system of amendment BIOS configuration ", this document disclose " a kind of revise BIOS configuration method and system; wherein, amendment BIOS configuration method comprise the following steps: check under an operating system and revise BIOS configuration;If needing amended BIOS configuration to come into force, then restart described computer;If need not amended BIOS configuration come into force, then carry out regular traffic.Without entering BIOS configuration interface, directly carry out under an operating system checking and revise BIOS configuration, that is can carry out at any time checking and revise BIOS configuration during regular traffic, as long as need not amended BIOS configuration come into force, without restarting computer, save the time, improve efficiency." file disclosed above to solve the technical problem that with present invention, the technological means of employing is different from.
Summary of the invention
The technical assignment of the present invention is to provide a kind of unmanned BIOS collocation method.
The technical assignment of the present invention realizes in the following manner, and the method is as follows: user is by arranging the configuration information that BIOS needs inside BMC;There is provided user to configure the virtual interface of BIOS with BMC, configuration information is saved in EEROM simultaneously;The configuration information of BIOS is preserved with EEROM.
The method operating procedure is as follows:
1) BIOS configuration information is preserved
BMC fictionalizes the configuration interface of BIOS by network in WEB interface, and user goes to configure BIOS at virtual BIOS configuration interface out and arranges;BMC can be by these information records inside EEROM, and BMC also oneself can actively remove to read the configuration information of BIOS;BMC reads the current configuration information of BIOS by hardware interface, is then saved in inside flash;
2) configuration BIOS
Configuration BIOS is divided into: after the BIOS setting that directly configuration is new, the BIOS that upgraded, and retains the configuration information of adjustment of the printing plate BIOS after configuring new BIOS setting, the BIOS that upgraded.
The described BIOS that directly configuration is new is arranged:
User first does new setting at the virtual BIOS configuration interface out of BMC, and configuration information is saved in inside EEROM by BMC afterwards;After BMC detects system boot, control server by KVM and enter the configuration interface of BIOS, then continue through the setting of KVM configuration BIOS.
After the complete BIOS of described upgrading, configure new BIOS and arrange:
User first does new setting at the virtual BIOS configuration interface out of BMC, and configuration information is saved in inside EEROM by BMC afterwards;After BMC detects that BIOS has updated, control server by KVM and enter the configuration interface of BIOS, then continue through the setting of KVM configuration BIOS.
The configuration information of reservation adjustment of the printing plate BIOS after the described BIOS that upgraded:
First BMC reads the configuration information of current BIOS from EEROM, then detects after BIOS has been updated over, controls server by KVM and enters the configuration interface of BIOS, then continues through the setting of KVM configuration BIOS.
A kind of unmanned BIOS collocation method of the present invention is compared to the prior art, BIOS is configured by the method, realize on the premise of not losing the original configuration information of BIOS, if desired some configuration is revised, user has configured BIOS continuous item in advance in the WEB interface of BMC in advance, without waiting after startup self-detection/BIOS upgrading manual configuration more again, BIOS after powering can be according to being provided with from set in BMC;If need not revise configuration information, it is not required that reconfiguring BIOS, former configuration information will not be lost.
