Abstract
A method for controlling a boot sequence of a server includes the following steps. A boot image is created, and a first proxy server program is placed into the boot image. The first proxy server program communicates with a management server. The boot image is restored on a rewritable removable storage device, so as to enable the rewritable removable storage device to boot a managed target server. A second proxy server program is installed and executed in the management server. A basic input/output system (BIOS) of the target server is set to enable the rewritable removable storage device to act as a first boot device. Boot files in the rewritable removable storage device are modified through the first proxy server program or the second proxy server program according to a boot instruction received from the management server, thereby controlling a boot sequence of the target server.
