Abstract: A computer system comprises a management apparatus and a plurality of information processing apparatuses each including a peripheral device. The management apparatus includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: compare version number information of firmware of the peripheral device mounted on each of the plurality of information processing apparatuses with reference information previously set; and in a case where the version number information of firmware is not consistent with the reference information, update firmware of the information processing apparatus so that a version number of firmware of the information processing apparatus becomes consistent with a version number of the reference information.

Abstract: A temperature control device that is mounted on an information processing apparatus together with a temperature sensor, a fan, and a plurality of coupling parts that enable coupling of an expansion device, and that controls a temperature of the information processing apparatus, the temperature control device includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to: hold, in the memory, a profile that indicates a relationship between a temperature of the information processing apparatus and rotational speed of the fan for each position of the coupling part to which the expansion device is coupled; receive, via a basic input and output program that operates exclusively with respect to an operating system, a profile for new expansion device received by the operating system when a driver for controlling a new expansion device newly mounted in the coupling part is installed in the information processing apparatus.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a mount unit, a memory, and a processor. The memory stores therein first identification information of a first interface device and first version number information of firmware installed in the first interface device. The processor compares the first identification information stored in the memory and second identification information of a second interface device mounted on the mount unit with each other. The processor compares, when the first identification information and the second identification information differ from each other, the first version number information stored in the memory and second version number information of firmware installed in the second interface device with each other.
