Description of the invention: ^ [Technical field to which the invention pertains] * The present invention relates to a method for dynamically setting management functions for a smart platform management interface, and more specifically, relates to a method for providing wisdom The Platform Management Interface (IPMI) computer system provides a system administrator to set the flag status and enable or disable (disable) of the demand function through a smart platform management interface (IPMI OEM command). ) The module of this function. β [Prior Art] Due to the rapid development of information technology and electronic technology, the industry has continuously developed a variety of remote services to meet the needs of users. Take the smart platform management interface that is commonly used today as an example. You can use the smart platform management interface to monitor the physical characteristics of the server, such as temperature, working voltage, fan working status, power supply status, etc., for system management, recovery and information management. Providing information, such a large number of functions have long been a must-have function of the server. In order to provide a large number of functions to users, the smart platform management-interface functional firmware on the server often gives a variety of command functions when the user starts the system. At the time, the function is read and started by the firmware. The devices that have adopted Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) technology are mainly network application architecture servers, Blade Servers and industrial control computers. The main applications are: Internet service systems, telecommunication systems and Classes require remotely managed systems. In Internet applications, system services are often suspended for various reasons. The common solution is to restart the server to identify the cause of the fault 5 18882 1298137 or solve the fault 'and the smart platform management interface (ΙΡΜι) can automatically change the fault situation. Or when the hardware is abnormal: :*(=The monitoring function provided can immediately send the alarm: system °;, or the automatic control function of the startup system, before the system management check, 'service The working time of the device; or by the software failure index "system;:: When the machine is down, the intelligent platform management interface (_) external monitoring system, 'first 4 help system administrators understand the hard working condition of the machine feeding machine,丨 The cause of the fault, and the remote hardware recovery or restart function to return the servo 11 operation, this function improves the availability of the ship. In the telecommunications system, the system needs to be equipped with a large number of automatic services; the second guarantees 24 hours of uninterrupted operation At present, due to the use of special equipment and human body, the cost of the system is extremely high, and it is increasingly difficult to meet the demand due to new application requirements and new technology = original equipment functions. The uncoordinated product also leads to the inability to form a centralized system monitoring and management system 2; the server of the (four) interface (ΙΡΜΙ) technology enables the telecommunications to cry back and provide usability and reduce the processing cost. The substrate management control LC The operation can be independent of the central processing processor (c ρ υ) of the server: the second is when the server is working abnormally, such as the operation system failure, the software: when the feeding device is down, the 'baseboard management controller _C) The network working mode can perform a hard weight opening, shutdown or restart operation on the server to restore the system operation. In terms of various types of systems that require extreme government management, 'distributed remote management has always been a difficult point for various industrial control application systems: complex management, high cost, and practical difficulties' such as automatic bank services placed in remote unattended situations. At the end of 18882 6 1298137, often due to unknown reasons, such as software operation abnormalities caused the terminal to pause _ service. The traditional solution is to send people to restart the system, or install monitoring and management software in their application system to coordinate management work, but this method is difficult to implement, and when the system software fails, it can't do anything when it is down, because it depends on the central part of the system. The arithmetic processor (CPU) and operating system are only operational. The Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) can be completely out of the system's central processing unit (CPU). In the network operating mode, the remote baseboard management controller can be started in the remote mode. _ (BMC) restarts its host. Even if the remote terminal hardware is restarted, it can provide the necessary technical conditions for automatic function recovery or automatic installation of remote software, which greatly improves the availability of such devices. However, at present, different functional requirements are increasing. When the system provider performs the function expansion operation, it writes more intelligent platform management interface IPMI firmware code, which provides more users' needs. And the service, therefore, if the demand is more, the more the system provider's service is provided, the greater the burden on the user, but the functions that some users do not need will be combined with the needs of most users. Providing, especially for a specific function, a specific service demander, many functions are not required, and if provided together, the burden and waste are relatively increased. Generally, if there is no special demand, the system provider usually provides the user with the same set of intelligent platform management interface IPMI firmware code, and provides the developed function to the user, if a user pairs A new feature has special requirements, and the system provider adds new features to the intelligent platform management interface firmware code (IPMI firmware code), and is available at boot time 7 18882 1298137, but this new feature It is very likely that the software and hardware characteristics may cause other functions to be limited in local use, but since the system providers share a set of intelligent platform management interface IPMI firmware code to provide services, it does not require The user of the new function must bear the limited limitation of other functions, and then must meet the needs of different users to establish a smart platform management interface firmware code (IPMI firmware code) for different needs, thereby causing system provider design cost. The burden and the shortcomings that are not easy to be universal, and because the above special needs are different for different customers, they must be provided. Different new features lead to more limited localization of different functions, which not only fails to provide users with fast, correct and efficient needs, but also can not be used for different firmware and hardware platforms. Therefore, how to solve the shortcomings of the prior art to enable the user to select the intelligent platform management interface and method for using the functional modules provided by the system is an urgent problem to be solved. • SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above disadvantages of the prior art, the main object of the present invention is to provide a method for dynamically setting management functions for a smart platform management interface, which is applied to a smart platform management interface (IPMI). Computer system, and can work across different firmware and hardware platforms, and through the intelligent platform management interface (IPMI OEM command), so that the system provider can set the flag status and enable of the demand function. Or, in addition to the module capable of the function, the intelligent platform management interface customization command is provided at the startup to provide the user with the 8 18882 1298137 setting of each flag function enable function module, so that the system starts and opens the user's office. Functional modules required. - Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for dynamically setting management functions for a smart platform's official interface, under the same set of intelligent media management code (read firmware code), by simple: Second, the system provider provides functional module settings quickly and efficiently. For the above and other purposes, the present invention provides a method for dynamically setting management functions for a smart platform management interface, which is applied to a computer system of a smart platform management interface of a functional module, and The computer system has a system equipped with a basic input/output system (BIOS), and a method for selecting a function module of the mobile device, including the following steps: (1) simulating the functions of the smart platform management interface' and The power of grouping. There is also a function status flag; (7) establish a function disable command, function = command and function status command; (3) in an input/output system (delete) from the f start detection - the function status command signal, It is known that each group is currently in execution or not executed; if the required function module is being executed, then step (7) is performed; if not, step (4) is performed; if the function module of right S is in execution, then steps are performed (5) If no, ::Enter::(7); (4) Transfer a function enable command to the function mode, change the function status flag with 4, and proceed to step (6). (5):疒Function disable module to the function module, and change the function status of the second sub-entertainment step (4); (4) through the smart platform management interface, the smart platform management interface, the blade body code restart program, and according to the) End the input/output system self-boot detection. 18882 9 1298137 The status flag of the smart platform management interface function is stored in a non-volatile memory unit, and the system administrator can use the smart platform management interface customization command setting according to actual needs for special use. To enable the required functions, it is also possible to reduce the enabling settings according to the needs of the user to reduce the relative cost. The status data of the function status flag is set by the system administrator by writing the basic input/output system code. The non-volatile memory unit can be one of a read only memory (ROM) and a flash memory (Flash) and a ferroelectric memory (FeRAM). Therefore, the method for dynamically setting management functions for the smart platform management interface is mainly for pre-setting the functional modules of the functional modules required by the client in the customized command of the smart platform management interface according to the needs of the user. The status flag and the corresponding function enablement requirements, in order to provide a special user function of the special 0 requirement under a set of intelligent platform management interface IPMI firmware code, and the user who does not need special function Without the limitations of the remaining functions, it is possible to provide a functional reduction requirement for users who do not need some functions. Therefore, through the method for dynamically setting management functions of the smart platform management interface, the system administrator can perform the cumbersome setting or the excessive and non-universal intelligent platform management interface IPMI firmware code. The dynamic selection of the smart platform management interface function module is performed quickly and correctly to complete the activation of the function module, thereby avoiding waste of resources, lengthy operation, complicated steps, etc., and can be extremely short in 10 18882 1298137. During the time, special function modules are customized for users to achieve customized services.
