Abstract: The present application relates to a Flash device switching method and apparatus, a computer device, and a storage medium. The method includes: when verification for a staging area, an active area, and a recovery area in a first flash device Flash corresponding to a first basic input/output system (BIOS) by a complex programmable logic device (CPLD) is passed, acquiring a power-on startup command of a server; performing power-on startup of the server according to the power-on startup command of the server; when the power-on startup of the server is not successful, triggering the CPLD to perform a recovery operation; and after the recovery operation of the CPLD fails, notifying the CPLD to switch the first flash device Flash to a second flash device Flash corresponding to a second BIOS.

Abstract: The present application discloses a resource allocation method for a peripheral, including: determining identification information of all network card devices from acquired peripheral information; establishing a special device list on the basis of the identification information; and performing resource allocation on a currently connected device on the basis of a boot mode of a basic input output system (BIOS) and the special device list. The identification information of all the network card devices is acquired, then the special device list is identified, and finally, on the basis of the boot mode and the special device list, resource allocation is performed on a network card device which is a special device. The present application further discloses a resource allocation apparatus for the peripheral, a server, and a non-volatile computer readable storage medium, which have the described beneficial effects.

Abstract: A hot storage backup system and method for server, relating to the technical field of servers. The method includes: after a Complex Programming Logic Device (CPLD) in a hard disk backboard detects access of a hard disk, triggering a hard disk access signal and sending same to a Central Processing Unit (CPU), and sending command parameters, corresponding to the hard disk, combined by a Basic Input Output System (BIOS) to the CPU; and checking, by the CPU, the command parameters with a mapping table, and in the case that the check is successful, setting an Advanced Configuration and Power Management Interface (ACPI) protocol according to the command parameters, so that the server normally recognizes the hard disk, thereby implementing a hot storage backup function through the hard disk.

Abstract: Disclosed in embodiments of the present application are a BIOS problem locating method and apparatus, and a medium. The method includes: constructing functional modules according to historical sample data; according to node information corresponding to each functional module, dividing data codes corresponding to the functional modules into data sub-codes; determining target identifier information according to correspondence between the data sub-codes and identifier information; when a problem occurs to a certain data sub-code, storing the target identifier information to a preset memory; and if an anomaly occurs to BIOS operation, according to the target identifier information recorded in the memory, quickly locating the abnormal target data sub-code.

Abstract: A method for locating a fault of a server includes: physically connecting a GPIO pin of a BMC to a GPIO pin of target hardware in advance; reading a current state value of the GPIO signal of the target hardware in a power-on and activation process of a mainboard, and loading a corresponding version of the firmware according to the current state value and the condition for switching; and in response to determining that the corresponding version of the firmware is the debug version, outputting serial port log information of the debug version to the BMC, and in response to determining that the corresponding version of the firmware is the release version, determining whether to change the state value of the GPIO signal on a connection between the BMC and the target hardware according to a preset normal activation condition and a system event log.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for data interaction between a BIOS and a BMC of a server, a device and a readable storage medium. According to the state of an IPMI link between a BIOS and a BMC, it is determined whether to perform data interaction. At the same time, whether the BMC cannot be activated due to abnormalities are determined by confirming whether the number of times of restarting the server reaches preset threshold at the BDS stage of the BIOS. When the number of times of restarting the server reaches the preset threshold and the BMC is still not activated, the BMC is determined to be abnormal. When the number of times of restarting the server has not yet reached preset threshold, the BIOS performs the action of restarting system, wherein preset threshold is confirmed by a variable self-defined inside the BIOS and may be set freely.

Abstract: Please amend the abstract of the specification as follows: Disclosed is a method for configuring an MMIOH base address of a server system. The method includes: when the server system is performing a power-on self-test, detecting a total capacity of all memories in the server system, and determining a minimum MMIOH base address of the server system according to an MMIO specification and the total capacity; if a target MMIOH base address range corresponding to a target PCIE device configured in the server system might be calculated according to a whitelist, and the minimum MMIOH base address is within the target MMIOH base address range, determining that the base address is the MMIOH base address of the server system, and storing the base address in a BIOS of the server system.
