In this embodiment, the number of hosts is not limited, and when there is only one host, the power supply module supplies power to only one host; the power supply module is respectively connected with the plurality of hosts to supply power to each resource device in the plurality of hosts.
In this embodiment, the power supply module in the electronic unit supplies power to the control unit first, and after the control unit is powered on, the control unit can be connected to the communication unit module in the electronic unit, so that a control instruction can be sent to the communication unit.

During maintenance, particularly when parts are replaced, a power line must be unplugged so as to avoid error electric shock; when the AC reset of the whole machine is required, the power line must be unplugged and plugged back. In this embodiment, the PSU power supply side is divided into two paths, one path is supplied to the BMC (corresponding to the control unit in the above description), to perform overall machine monitoring management. The other path is controlled by the BMC, supplied to CPLD, ME, CPU, MEM, HDD, etc., to operate the host system (corresponding to the host in the above); when maintenance is needed, the BMC can be instructed or an independent power supply button can be pressed, and the PSU is controlled to disconnect the power of the host system, so that the maintenance is safer; when the complete machine AC needs to be reset, the command to the BMC is sent remotely, so that the control efficiency of power supply is greatly improved.
As shown in fig. 5, the present embodiment specifically includes the following: in this embodiment, the power supply unit may be composed of a conventional PSU and a system side power supply circuit, where the power supply of the PSU is finer, and the power supply unit may be composed of a conventional PSU and a system side power supply circuit. For example, it may be, for example, 3-circuit, 4-circuit, or more, each of which may be one or more sets of electricity, to match the design requirements of the server product. For example, the PSU power supply side is divided into two circuits, one of which can be 3.3V, and the other is supplied to the BMC for monitoring and management of the whole machine. The other path of electricity, the voltage can be 12V, 5V, 3.3V, etc., is controlled by the BMC, is supplied to CPLD, ME, CPU, MEM, HDD for use, etc., to run the host system. When the host is required to be maintained, the BMC can be instructed or an independent power supply button can be pressed, so that the PSU is controlled to disconnect the power of the host system, and the maintenance is safer; when the complete machine AC needs to be reset, the command to the BMC is sent remotely, so that the efficiency is greatly improved.
