  • Publication number: 20180145869
    Abstract: A debugging method of switches is applied to a server device comprising the switches, a central processing unit (CPU) and a baseboard management controller (BMC). The CPU generates at least one control signal and transmits it to the switches as executing a mission which relates to transmitting a signal generated by a source device to a sink device. At least part of the switches builds a connection relationship according to the control signal and the switches in the connection relationship are electrically connected to the source device and the sink device. When an error occurs to the CPU or the switches during execution of the mission, the CPU resets the connection relationship. The BMC determines whether the error is removed. When the error is not removed, the BMC records the error, resets the server device, and then selectively sets the switches with a preset connection relationship.
