Method for determining stability of configuration of computer system, involves reading configuration parameter via interface of firmware component, and determining stability of computer system based on parameter

摘要

The method involves initializing a bus system that comprises a processor bus (8), memory bus (9), system management bus (10), chip set bus (11) and peripheral controller interface-express-bus (12) by a bus control using a preset hardware-specific test routine. A configuration parameter for operating the bus system is detected in an updated configuration based on the test routine by a firmware component. The detected parameter is read via an interface of the firmware component. Stability of a computer system (1) is determined based on the read parameter by an analysis component. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a computer system comprising a bus system (2) a computer program product comprising a computer program code for determining stability of configuration of a computer system.
