Abstract
A blade server management system with an auxiliary management structure is described. The system has at least two management boards and a connecting base. The two management boards become one master management board to control directly the system and a slave management board standing by to take over system control according to a predetermined timing to detect heart beat signals and the inserted positions on the connecting base. A first COM port is a main interconnecting line between the management boards, and a LAN port is an auxiliary interconnecting line. A local computer connecting with a second COM port is utilized auxiliary to control the management system. The slave management board is promoted to master management board status when the original master management blade fails. Therefore, the system stability can be increased.
