  • Patent number: 10783092
    Abstract: A method for switching a shared network protocol of a baseboard management controller comprises: determining whether a mainboard is connected with an external network card by a baseboard management controller; determining whether an external network card network port of the external network card is connected with a network cable by the baseboard management controller when the mainboard is connected with the external network card; connecting a physical link of a shared network protocol of the baseboard management controller with the external network card network port when the external network card network port is connected with the network cable; and connecting the physical link of the shared network protocol of the baseboard management controller with a mainboard network port of the mainboard when the external network card network port is not connected with the network cable. As a result, the shared network protocol can be maintained in normal operation.

  • Publication number: 20200192776
    Abstract: This disclosure provides a server structure, a management controller of the mainboard of a mainboard obtains a sensor record from a resource box and saves the sensor record in the server. The mainboard has an external interface, and the management controller of the mainboard of the mainboard externally provides the sensor record of the mainboard and the obtained from the resource box of the resource box management controller of the mainboard through the external interface. This disclosure further provides a method for resource aggregation for the server, which comprises: S1: the management controller of the mainboard of the mainboard loads the sensor record of the resource box to the server; S2: the management controller of the mainboard of the mainboard integrals the sensor record of the resource box and the sensor record of the mainboard into a whole set sensor record.

  • Patent number: 10203734
    Abstract: A temperature monitoring system includes a temperature sensing device, a management controlling device and a logic device. The temperature sensing device monitors temperature of a central processing unit of a computer system, and sets a first temperature threshold and a second temperature threshold. The management controlling device determines whether the temperature is higher than the first temperature threshold, and further determines whether the temperature is higher than the second temperature threshold when the temperature is higher than the first temperature threshold. The logic device controls the computer system to turn on or shut down. When the temperature is higher than the second temperature threshold, the management controlling device controls the logic device to execute a forced shutdown of the computer system, locks a power button of the computer system and stores an event log.
