Abstract
A server system includes a system on chip (SOC), a baseboard management controller (BMC), a first switch and a connector. The SOC has a hardware debugging test (HDT) interface to generate a HDT signal. The BMC has a programming interface to generate a programming signal. The first switch receives the HDT signal and the programming signal. The connector couples with the first switch. A first control signal controls the first switch to select one of the HDT signal and the programming signal to output to the connector. When the connector receives the HDT signal, a debugging apparatus debugs the SOC according to the HDT signal. When the connector receives the programming signal, a programming apparatus performs a programming process for the BMC according to the programming signal.
