A management server and a management method thereof are provided. The management server is connected to a switch on a trunk port. The switch is connected to a plurality of cloud appliances in different virtual local area networks (VLANs). The management severs operates a management system and a translation system for managing cloud appliances. The translation system is operated to modify the receiving data packet by converting the source MAC address or the source IP address and removing the VLAN tag, and to modify the transmitting data packet by converting the destination MAC address or the destination IP address and adding a VLAN tag.

Management server and management method thereof for managing cloud appliances in virtual local area networks

A network grouping system and a network grouping method thereof are provided. The network grouping system includes a controlling server and a connecting server. The connecting server connects to the controlling server via a switch. The connecting server embeds a grouping identifier into a network packet, and transmits the network packet to the controlling server via the switch. The controlling server retrieves the grouping identifier from the network packet, and creates a grouping configuration according to the grouping identifier. The grouping configuration records a matching relation of the grouping identifier with the connecting server. The controlling server further transmits the grouping configuration to the switch so that the switch passes on network packets according to the grouping configuration.

Network grouping system and the network grouping method thereof

A fireproof rack for protecting an object is provided. The fireproof rack includes a major frame, a moveable frame, a fireproof chamber and a fireproof liquid. The moveable frame is slidably connected to the major frame, and the moveable frame slides between a first position and a second position relative to the major frame, and the object is disposed in the moveable frame, and the moveable frame and the object are in the first position under an operation mode. Under a fireproof mode, the moveable frame and the object slide to the second position, and are received in the fireproof chamber. The fireproof liquid is located in the fireproof chamber. When the moveable frame and the object are in the second position, the object is soaked in the fireproof liquid.

Fireproof rack and fireproof method thereof

An operating system (OS) processing method for a host computer includes the following steps: when the host computer is booting, a boot loader is read from a boot reading device according to a boot priority order of the host computer. A signature detecting program included in the boot loader is executed to detect data stored in a specified address of a master boot record (MBR) of the host computer. When it is determined that the present version signature of the host computer does not match the preset version signature according to the data stored in the specified address, an OS image is read from the boot reading device, an OS is installed on the host computer according to the OS image. The data stored in the specified address of the MBR is amended according to an image version signature of the installed OS.
