Abstract

The invention discloses a server firmware upgrade package processing method and device. The method comprises the following steps: configuring a first class upgrade package according to a server model,or according to the server model and a manufacturer; wherein the first type of upgrade package corresponds to one or more server serial numbers; and determining a second type of upgrade package according to the server serial number and the first type of upgrade package, the second type of upgrade package comprising upgrade information of firmware needing to be upgraded. According to the invention, when the server firmware upgrade package is processed, the firmware upgrade package is updated; microcode upgrade packages are distributed and packaged by aiming at manufacturers and server models;compared with the prior art, the method has the advantages that the complexity and the error probability of arrangement of the upgrade package when the operation and maintenance personnel upgrades theserver firmware are reduced, the working efficiency is improved, the technical threshold and the upgrade complexity of the operation and maintenance personnel are reduced, the upgrade package can beeffectively managed in a unified manner, and the working efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of computer software development, in particular to a method and device for processing server firmware upgrade packages. Background technique [0002] The update and upgrade of the server lies in the operation of replacing the server or expanding the hardware when the server fails or one of the hardware devices exceeds the warning line in the defined disaster recovery mechanism. Due to the wide variety of server models, and the basic input and output system BIOS, baseboard management controller BMC, field replaceable unit FRU, disk array RAID, host bus adapter HBA, network card NIC and other firmware on different models of servers are different. If you need to upgrade one or more of the firmware, you need to take into account the server model and other firmware models and versions, and the complexity of such an upgrade is relatively high. [0003] At present, when upgrading one or more firmwares in the serve...
