Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method and apparatus for updating server firmware in a server. The server is based on a Purley platform, a South Bridge chip of the server is electrically connected to a BMC through an ESPI bus, and the BMC is electrically connected to a firmware memory storing server firmware and a BMC memory through the ESPI bus. An embodiment of the method includes: performing a read operation on an image file for updating the server firmware stored in the BMC memory by using the BMC, when a preset upgrading condition is satisfied; and updating the server firmware stored in the firmware memory based on information read from the read operation. This embodiment achieves an updating of server firmware without additional hardware.
