Problems solved by technology

In other words, the method of distinguishing configurations through GPIO information must depend on the hardware design of the motherboard. When the hardware design is determined, the number of GPIOs and the types of configurations that can be distinguished are fixed and cannot be increased according to actual needs.

Embodiment Construction

[0040] While the invention may be embodied in various forms, some exemplary and non-limiting embodiments are shown in the drawings and will be described below, it should be understood that the disclosure is to be considered as an example of the invention and not It is intended that the invention be limited to the specific embodiments described.

[0041] figure 1 A schematic block diagram of an embodiment of a method for configuring motherboard hardware according to the present invention is shown. In the embodiment shown in the figure, the method at least includes the following steps:

[0042] S1: Assign a preset ID and configuration parameters to each riser card, and store the IDs and configuration parameters in the configuration information table;

[0043] S2: In response to the system booting, obtain the IDs of all existing riser cards through the BIOS, and determine the riser card combination of the current motherboard according to the obtained IDs;

[0044] S3: Query th...

Abstract

The invention relates to a mainboard hardware configuration method and a device, and the method comprises the steps: distributing a preset ID and a configuration parameter for each adapter card, and storing the ID and the configuration parameter into a configuration information table; in response to system startup, obtaining IDs of all in-place riser cards through a BIOS, and determining a riser card combination of the current mainboard according to the obtained IDs; querying a configuration information table according to the riser card combination to obtain configuration parameters of the current mainboard; and feeding back the configuration parameters of the current mainboard to the corresponding PCIE configuration information setting and displaying interface. Compared with a traditionalmode of achieving configuration distinguishing through GPIO, the method solves the problem that distinguishing, configuration, recognition and the like of external hardware on a mainboard excessivelydepend on hardware design of the mainboard in the prior art, and the utilization rate of mainboard slots and the expandability of configuration are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer technology. The present invention further relates to a method and device for configuring motherboard hardware. Background technique [0002] As we all know, the server is the core of the entire network system and computing platform, and many important data are stored on the server, and there are many types of servers, such as computing servers, storage servers, database servers, and so on. The type of server is mainly determined by the functions of the plugged-in devices, so the motherboard of the same server can actually be used as different types of servers, and most of the devices plugged into servers are PCIE devices. [0003] Due to the current wide application of servers, for the same model, customers often choose different PCIE configurations according to their usage scenarios. In order to meet different business needs, conventional general-purpose servers may contain ten There are several...
