A method for remotely triggered reset of a baseboard management controller (BMC) of a computer system is disclosed. The computer system includes a first computer node, a second computer node and a control unit. The method includes: (A) receiving, by a first BMC of the first computer node, from a computer device and via a network, a reset command which indicates that reset of a second BMC of the second computer node should be triggered; (B) transmitting, by the first BMC and to the control unit, a control signal that corresponds to the reset command; and (C) transmitting, by the control unit and to the second BMC, a reset signal that corresponds to the control signal, so as to trigger reset of the second BMC.
A method for remotely triggered reset of a baseboard management controller of a computer system, the computer system including a first computer node, a second computer node and a control unit, the first computer node including a first baseboard management controller that is electrically coupled to the control unit and that is linked to a computer device via a network, the second computer node including a second baseboard management controller that is electrically coupled to the control unit, said method comprising:
