Abstract
The invention provides a method for refreshing a BIOS (Basic Input Output System) in an Itanium platform operating system. The method comprises the following steps that: 1) an Itanium_BIOS_update program reads version information of the BIOS of an existing version, reads original BIOS content and backs up the content as backup.fd; 2) an original program is compared with a refreshing program, if the refreshing program is consistent with the version of an existing machine, the program is stopped, a prompt ''now it is already latest version and refreshing is not required'' is output, and if the refreshing program is not consistent with the version of the existing machine, BIOS ROMs (Read Only Memories) of a CPU (Central Processing Unit) are subjected to program update one by one; and 3) the program automatically verifies whether the refreshing is successful after all the ROMs are updated, if the refreshing is failed, a prompt ''upgrade failed'' is output, 1 is selected for returning to the original version, 2 is selected for re-upgrading, if the refreshing is failed again, the operation of returning to the original version is suggested, and if the refreshing is successful, a prompt ''the refreshing is successful, please restart during maintenance and the BIOS of a new version takes effect immediately'' is output. According to the method, the time for BIOS upgrading maintenance by clients on site is greatly shortened, the maintenance efficiency is improved, and the maintenance downtime cost is reduced.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of BIOS method for refreshing, specifically under a kind of Itanium platform operating system, refresh the method for BIOS.
Background technology
Along with the development of IT field technology, robotization to the research and development of server, produce and all save a large amount of human resources and time.BIOS(BasicInput-OutputSystem) i.e. the Basic Input or Output System (BIOS) of computer, is the rom chip be integrated on mainboard, it provides the most basic function support of computer system.Wherein contain the software etc. of start guidance code, underlying hardware driver, optimum configurations program and some manufacturer's independent researches.The one large feature of BIOS can refresh by specific method exactly, and Here it is, and usually said BIOS upgrades.Upgrading BIOS, except can obtaining many new functions, can also solve some defects in chipset, motherboard design, get rid of the computer glitch etc. that some are special.Mention and refresh BIOS, a lot of people necessarily thinks and does this thing danger close, does not do a good job and will BIOS be brushed bad.In fact, if you have grasped correct method, and suitable operation, generally there is no any problem.The method refreshing BIOS has a variety of, except can refreshing under DOS, can also refresh under Windows, also have some mainboard manufacturers to devise BIOS refresh tool in addition in its mainboard, just can recall BIOS refresh tool by corresponding Macintosh after start and refresh.
Domestic mainboard BIOS popular on the market mainly contains AwardBIOS and AMIBIOS these two kinds now, and the refurbishing procedure that dissimilar BIOS uses is not identical yet.We can be judged by startup self-detection picture, or press after " Del " key enters CMOS during start, arrange on interface judge at it.
As minicomputer server product provider, a upgrading refreshing carrying out BIOS at curstomer's site based on the minicomputer server of Itanium platform is absolutely necessary.And along with the continuous increase of minicomputer server shipment amount, the difference of different customer care demand, servicing down times is more short better, conventional method upgrading BIOS is all under DOS or upgrades under efi, these two kinds of modes all need at least twice to restart (restarts and enters DOS/EFI and refresh, also need to restart after refreshing to come into force) the at substantial time, and this method can make the minicomputer server based on Itanium platform refresh BIOS under Linux or UNIX operating system, BIOS is refreshed under the DOS that contrast is conventional, this method only needs the time of once restarting to complete upgrading quickly and easily, the time over half is saved than conventional method, greatly can save the time that customer down is safeguarded according to this, improve maintenance efficiency.
Summary of the invention
