发明名称 Method for updating the timing of a baseboard management controller
摘要 The present invention discloses a method for updating the timing of a baseboard management controller (BMC) applied in a computer system. When a basic input output system (BIOS) installed on a motherboard of the computer system is initialized, the current time for the BMC to receive the BIOS is used for the timing of the BMC, and the BMC will send regular synchronous signals to the motherboard at a predetermined interval thereafter. After the motherboard has received the synchronous signal, the current time of the BIOS is sent to the BMC, and the BMC updates the timing of the BMC by the current time of the BIOS, so that the timing of the BMC will be consistent with the current time of the BIOS, and system administrators no longer need to update the time manually.
