Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to computing machine and network technology, particularly the remote storage of file, program, the computing machine that calls and manage and network technology.
Background technology
20th century indicated along with the development and application of computing machine that human society had entered the information age, began to change to the era of knowledge-driven economy from industrialization.In nearly 10 years, promptly merge in fields such as worldwide phone, radio station, TV, computing machine and telstar, isolated island phenomenon between the obtaining, transmit, store and handle of information little by little disappears along with computer network and Development of Multimedia Technology, once the telecommunications network of independent development, television network and computer network will integrate, and new information industry just emerges rapidly with strong momentum.
With regard to computer network, it is the product that Computers and Communication combines during beginning, and its appearance and development have promoted computer utility that the variation of matter has taken place.Experienced with the mainframe be the centralized computing of core and be the distributed treatment of elementary cell by PC after, the tupe of computing machine has developed into present network calculations; Its range of application head and shoulders above science calculating, become immanent instrument.Development of computer network both had been subjected to the support of computer science and technology and communication science technology, was subjected to using the support of those art of computer network again.
" broad sense " computer network be under the control of agreement by one or more computing machine, some station terminal equipment, data transmission set and be convenient to terminal and computing machine between or the set of the system that the communication control processor etc. of streams data is formed between the computing machine.Wherein agreement is the soul of network.A distributed computer network (DCN) is set up in nineteen sixty-eight ARPA of U.S. Department of Defense decision, Here it is famous ARPA net.The principle of ARPA net is exactly packet switch, and it has established the basis of present most computers network " storage-forwarding ".The seventies is to the mid-80, and development of computer network is faced with multiple heterogeneous network is interconnected at together challenge, so two kinds of new thoughts occurred: the one, communication protocol; The 2nd, opening architecture.
Session and information transmission that the former manages peer entity by each layer " agreement ", the latter is intended to follow unified international standard, allows the interconnected and internal entity of various heterogeneous networks irrelevant.In the TCP/IP of the online trial run of ARPA exploration as a kind of new data communication technology, in 1977 to 1979 in the period of, release the TCP/IP architecture and the protocol specification that form at present.The eighties, ISO (International Standards Organization) ISO formulated open system interconnection reference model OSI/RM, it is divided into seven layers to computer network architectures, all problems that communication should solve between the computing machine are described, comprise the function that should have at all levels, the service that provides and for realizing the form and the sequential of exchange message between each level of these functions.
The service that provides from computer network, early stage computer network provides very simple single-point to deliver, it is the data transmission of point-to-point, afterwards, progressively expand the broadcast mode that a little arrives multiple spot to, but its essence is still utilized point to point system, has just become the client/server mode of operation in form.The eighties, early stage shared formula network technology and related protocol provided the service of doing one's best, and, can not guarantee service quality according to same processed to all services request.After the nineties, a large amount of real-time multimedias are applied in online appearance, and as the computer video meeting etc., they need network that reliable multiple spot delivery service can be provided, i.e. group communication and the service quality control guaranteed.
The basic function of computer network is to break through geographic restrictions, realizes that resource (information, software, hardware, service) is shared; Rely on alternative resource in the network, improve system reliability; By to the sharing of valuable source, reduce investment, wider distributed treatment ability is provided.It is used substantially and can mainly be divided into the strange land data access at present, communicate by letter with increment three major types and utilize rise in value affiliate's exchange of information of communication and enterprises and outside of Internet of strange land routine access, even use electronic data interchange and between bank, client and supplier, transmit various documents, for setting up between enterprise dynamic alliance and the virtual enterprise environment that provides support.
It should be noted that the development of terminal.
Terminal is the same with PC, also belongs to a kind of computer equipment of man-machine interface.Compare with traditional PC, the difference of its maximum is: PC belongs to a kind of personal computing devices basically, generally is that a display interface is joined a main frame, is relatively independent computer equipment.Terminal then is a kind of computer platform, the shared host computer system of its many often station terminal.For today in the network high-speed development, LAN system in the enterprise is fairly perfect, people more pay close attention to be information visit with share, wish that people's machine equipment is more simple, practical, low-cost, it is simple to safeguard, and independently PC is undoubtedly a kind of waste concerning enterprise, and terminal is exactly the radiance that shine it in this case.
Terminal in computer system is meant provides the computing machine of man-machine interface display terminal.The computing machine display terminal is called for short display terminal, is the end end equipment that depends on host/server.According to the difference of host/server operating system, they can be divided into end products such as host terminal, Unix, Windows, Web.Apparently, it similarly is the PC that has not had main frame, has only stayed a display and keyboard, carries out information processing by the access to netwoks host computer system.The range of application of this display terminal is very extensive, almost can replace the PC product of all industries, thereby application prospect is very good.Display terminal mainly is divided into two kinds, and a kind of is to be the character terminal of representative with the Unix terminal, and is another kind of then be to be the graphic terminal of representative with the Windows terminal.
Following end product will present the situation that a hundred flowers blossom, and various different classes of terminals such as Unix, Windows, Web, Linux, Java will depend on the variation of following custom system, the otherness of application and coexisting.The terminal technology development will be towards centralization, networking, hommization, safe, openingization development.Terminal develops into mobile portable, palm formula gradually from traditional desktop bench device, the various forms of integrated wired connection and wireless connecting module.Along with the development of end product, its range of application has also obtained further expansion.
Common terminal is can division as follows:
1. character terminal.
When UNIX operating system was popular, the appearance of character terminal was a big Gospel concerning computer management person.The ease for maintenance of its relative simple configuration and terminating machine makes keeper's workload reduce many relatively.More domestic large enterprises have disposed many UNIX character terminal equipment one after another.But character terminal exists, and the software development difficulty is big, display interface is single, to managerial personnel's technical requirement a series of problems such as higher and server plant maintenance complexity, these have become the obstacle that hinders the development of UNIX character terminal.Most enterprise has to for above-mentioned reasons stop using UNIX character terminal equipment and uses commercial PC instead as client device.
2.Windows2000 terminal (WBT).
Graphic terminal is representative with the Windows terminal, WBT (Windows Based Terminta l) is the standards service that Windows 2000Server/Advanced Server releases, it allows the client-access server of user with the Windows interface, application program in the runtime server makes the user just as the computing machine with oneself.In the network of WBT, the installation of all application software, configuration, operation and storage etc. are all carried out on server, and client computer (terminal) is only as input-output device.After the terminal user signs in to server, just can be as using local resource to use resource on the server, window application on the runtime server.A plurality of terminal users can sign in on the server simultaneously, work independently.These characteristics of WBT are similar with the character terminal of early stage UNIX, but the advantage of WBT is that it is based on Windows, has friendly graphical interfaces and the ease for use of Windows.In addition, under the network environment of WBT, if the input information of the data owner keyboard of Network Transmission and mouse and the output information of display, the processing of data is all carried out on server, and this has just reduced the transmission quantity of network.But it is often too high to the requirement of server in the reality operation.
3.Novell non-disk workstation.
From 1994 to 1996, most no flaking network basic booms all were to adopt the Netware3.11 of Novell or the operating platform that Netware3.12 makes server, and workstation is logined with IPX or ODI mode.The procotol of using in this network is IPX/SPX (Interne twork Packed Exchange/Sequenced PackedExchange), we claimed it not have the flaking network for IPX at that time, mainly be to be used for teaching network, application program is mostly based on DOS.This can be described as the first generation does not have the flaking network.
4.RPL non-disk workstation.
From 1996 to 1999, the no flaking network of logining in RPL (Remote initial Program Load) mode accounted for the overwhelming majority, and server end can be selected Netware4.1 or Windows NT 4.0 Server of Novell.Just among these several years, Microsoft has released Windows in nineteen ninety-five and had released Windows NT 4.0 in 95,1996, this those long situations that disappear have appearred in novell, inc. and Microsoft on the network market, the advantage of novell, inc. on the network market replaced by Microsoft gradually.Windows NT 4.0 Server that Microsoft releases can provide the service of RPL remote activation, and Windows 95 also network enabled installs, and has wherein comprised network installation order Netsetup.RPL almost becomes the synonym of no flaking network in after this several years.This is that the second generation does not have the flaking network.
Windows 98 kernels that Microsoft releases have bigger variation than Windows 95, tightr with getting in touch of Intemet, function also strengthens to some extent, and regrettably Windows 98 no longer provides Netsetup order, that is to say that Windows98 can't be directly installed on the no dish station.
5.PXE non-disk workstation.
After 1999, Intel Company has released PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) technology, because the intervention of Intel, 3COM and companies such as QUALSTEM, three road science and technology, make no disk technology obtain development at full speed, a large amount of high-quality no dish support softwares constantly occur, corresponding with it no dish scheme also emerges in an endless stream, make us too plenty for the eye to take it all in, no dish station can not be moved Windows 98 and become history, new non-disk startup mechanism has been used among the RPL conversely, makes also can move Windows98 on the RPL workstation.The core technology that the third generation does not have the flaking network is the PXE technology of Intel.
It seems that totally in the high speed development of network calculations epoch software and hardware, computing machine just exists as a computing platform, people wish that people's machine equipment is more simple, practical, low-cost, people more pay close attention to be information visit with share.
At present, the computing machine of working on computer network has following two kinds of forms: a kind of is the PC that local hard drive is arranged, and its working method is by webserver shared data or by server access intetnet; Another kind of is exactly the NC (network computer) that the big daily life of a family is heard.So be operated in the PC on the computer network owing to there is local hard drive to have destructions such as being subjected to virus and maloperation easily, cause system crash.Because hard disk is an electromechanical integrated product, the failure rate of mechanical part is still very high, and the existence of hard disk simultaneously makes PC become information island in network environment.Though NC has many good qualities, do not need to install hard disk such as this locality, fully by server centered management etc.; But because the network support platform adopts the simple realization pattern of volume, rely on complicated, huge non-security kernel, lag behind the needs of real network, can only be with terminal terminal (cpu and the internal memory of RDP mode share service device) mode operation, software environment also can only be simple graphical interfaces.The problem that NC is the most fatal is exactly that the load of server is very huge, and software such as client can't independent operating 3D Max, CAD, recreation, multimedia courseware can only be done simple text-processing, and browsing page also has phenomenon more laboriously.And the construction method of network support platform system is backward and loaded down with trivial details, requires too high to the maintenance management personnel.

A kind of virtual architecture formula network computer support platform system building method is characterized in that, comprises the steps:
I, on server operation VDSA Kernel Driver, the network computer support platform, generate virtual disk;
The boot of J, client (supporting the bootrom of PXE/EFI, Bootp) is to the claim frame of a band of Web broadcast network interface card ID;
After K, server end listen to described request, check whether this user is legal.If validated user is the distributing IP address;
After L, client received the response frame of distributing IP address, request server transmitted startup file;
M, server end send startup file to client;
After N, client are received startup file, finish preliminary startup.
Described network computer support platform system building method is further comprising the steps of:
It is the c dish that P, client use the virtual disk make to set up virtual boot disk;
The information of described c disk storage is to be downloaded by the map in combination client's kernel (Mix Olient Kermnel) in the server;
Q, operating system are coiled the driver card that loads minimal set at described virtual c, are connected to server reading and writing share directory through network;

Described operating system loads the VDSA file system and drives, and judges the operation of being done according to the character of the file that will read and write, comprising:
The file of three document sources is mixed demonstration, and the priority that obtains file is client kernel Client Kernel successively, writes the operation of sharing write Sbare and reading to share Read Share;
Carry out the operation that file reads by the priority that reads;
Directly read the operation of client kernel Client Kernel file;
To non-client kernel Client Kernel file, in write share, read earlier, if can not find, read the operation of Read Share again; And
Non-client kernel Client Kernel file is written to operation among the write Share.
Described virtual disk make can be RAMDISK (memory disk structure) mode, also can be VLD (large capacity disc structure) mode; Correspondingly, the target that writes of client kernel Client Kernel file may be local Client RAM, also may be the private core district Kernel DiffereFice of server.
All can regard visit as for the every operation of client to physical track/cylinder and sector, the realization of every operation is being that the privately owned signal of network is sent out and server to the disk access conversion of signals, server is to being stored in the access control of virtual disk (IMG) wherein, to feed back with network signal and beam back and client, and sum up any operation can be all application layer/file system level/OS level and be calculating and control the side-play amount of physical track.Details is being descended with different marginal datas.
Several things are mainly finished in the client non-disk workstation:
Start piece and start computer, open network interface simultaneously, with the server communication, the download client basic configuration information; Network interface card drives and loads; The middle layer drives and loads; Disk drive loads, and reads landing and configuration information of server end acquisition from internal memory, thereby realizes the virtual network disk; Client downloads BIN shelves, after the initialization network environment, control drives and disk drive with the middle layer again.
Only described in detail with regard to the driving data stream implementation that scsi disk drives and the NDIS middle layer drives.
SCSI and NDIS workflow are as follows:
SCSI receives the SRB (Scsi request package) of OS; SCSI conversion SRB is the order that can discern of server and is stored in the bag buffer zone; After sending thread and receiving event notice from SCSI, the command request bag that SCSI is set up sends to server; Server is a feedback information after receiving request package; After NDIS receives feedback information, feedback data is stored in the bag buffer zone; SCsI receives the data of NDIS behind notification event, will wrap buffer zone accordingly and be stored in SRB and finish in the formation.
System image (Img) is corresponding reflection from model machine.May be a file or disk partition (under the situation that needs are optimized).All the system of workstation all is based on Img and derives from, and briefly, Img is that the model workstation uploads to the data among the Server.The Img file is general bigger, and the request at work of treatment station all is more tiny and frequent, so Img zhang part is pressed the big or small piecemeal (last block size may be not enough) that equates, the unit of piecemeal is called SectionSize.System image leaves on the Server, and formats on the model machine.System image does not directly provide service to workstation, and it is by being packaged into the reflection of a workstation special use behind the shade " user class reflection ", providing server to workstation again.
IO piece (IO Block) is the method for workstation visit Server.Workstation when Server requires to read and write data, all can provide start offset (Offset) at every turn, read-write size (IOSize), and we claim that this is the IO request, the scope of request is called the IO piece.
(UserImg, UserImgOnce UserImgX) are the example that service is provided to workstation to the user class reflection.In the position of workstation, it all has control oneself one independently virtual hard disk, and this is by " user class reflection " in fact
Be added to " system image " and finally formed " user's reflection " (being the virtual hard disk that workstation is seen).
Research power resources of the present invention are in the following market demand.
The fast development of domestic IT industry has promoted the rising tendency of the network support platform market demand.At first be that the market business opportunity is unlimited aspect E-Government, will continue to keep quick growth in 2004.The Internet Weekly investigation shows: the total E-Government operation revenue of government affairs the last 100 enterprise of China Electronics had reached 21,000,000,000 yuan in 2003,12,400,000,000 in 2002 yuan head and shoulders above.The E-Government operation revenue will be climbed new peak again in 2004.Secondly in education sector, 2003, IT application in education sector becomes the theme of dominating IT market, the information-based market of whole education in China is very big, it is predicted: IT application in education sector in 2004 probably has 30,000,000,000 yuan market capacity, comprise the campus network of university, the campus network construction of middle and primary schools, from PC, networking products, server to software etc.It is worth noting " Internet bar " this emerging industry especially, show that according to the CNNIC latest survey domestic netizen is 6,800 ten thousand, occupies stably the position of the second in the world.But online computer desk number only is 2,572 ten thousand, and this just means the factor of removing the sustainable growth of household PC sales volume, and this huge breach is filled up by the Internet bar.Only the 10 nationwide chain Internet bars of family are exactly a huge market: its national licence plate Internet bar can reach more than 1000 families, and the computer quantity of every family is 200 at least, and every computer is exactly 8,000,000,000 yuan a market capacity with 4000 yuan of calculating.Add follow-up service, related accessory market, this will be the big market of 10,000,000,000 yuan of mistakes.In addition, the operational Internet bar of nationwide also has 12.5 ten thousand, 3,500,000 in total computer.If these Internet bars add under the chain brand, just must change computer.The netizen is online game in Internet bar's maximum function of use simultaneously, this ratio has surpassed 60%, the online game that renewal speed is exceedingly fast is very high to the requirement of computer hardware, thereby expedite the emergence of out the demand that device upgrade is regenerated, average update cycle of Internet bar's computer was further foreshortened between a year and a half to two year, more make the snowball in PC market, 8,000,000,000 yuan of Internet bars roll bigger and bigger, the market capacity of the PC of Internet bar reaches 22,000,000,000 yuan.No matter from which angle, the Internet bar all is huge market of network computer.
What deserves to be mentioned is that the such growth phenomenon of China also appearred resembling in external IT market.But after a large amount of PC buyings, a lot of enterprises have all turned to network computer.In fact, the notion of network computer has just occurred as far back as eighties of last century.In the time of nineteen ninety-five, propose by Oracle company, unite leading " network computer " (NC by the giant of SUN and this two tame IT industry of IBM, Network Computer) notion is not just with its " low cost " (comprise purchase and upgrade) and " platform-neutral " (need transplant) and make a great to-do for a time, though final for want of enough application software supports and stopping figthing, but to having produced strong impact with " personal computer " headed by Microsoft and the Intel Company (PC, Personal Computer) camp.Fast ten years have gone over, and the enterprise of 500 tops of the world has and introduced network computer more than 93% in a large number at present, and its running status is very good.
In China, we can say that people also can forward on the demand to network computer very soon to the demand of PC, the problem (directly having reduced the investment of hard disk and OS) that this only can not save investment will produce huge demand in system maintenance, upgrading and resource sharing.The very suitable above field of network computer support platform of the present invention, this software systems technology is unlimited with potentiality under the pulling of the market demand.
In the practicality, virtual architecture formula network computer support platform system of the present invention is divided into from system architecture: client and server system two large divisions.Client part comprises the virtual disk drive system: be made of the bsp driver bag, be responsible for the exchanges data between OS and virtual disk; With OS environment uploader: OS mirror image environment production system.Server section comprises MBR virtual disk mirror image head system, i.e. virtual disk boot; The DHCP system is responsible for the IP management of website; Client-side interface system, the i.e. data exchange interface of server and website; The logon server management system is responsible for the user management of website; And virtual disk servo-drive system, i.e. the bottom data service system of virtual disk.
The principle of work of virtual architecture formula network computer support platform system of the present invention is: operation VDSA is the virtual architecture formula network computer support platform of kernel on server, generates virtual disk; The bootrom of client (PXE/EFI, Bootp) is to the claim frame of a band of Web broadcast network interface card ID; After server end listens to request, check whether this user is legal. if validated user is the distributing IP address; After client received response frame, request server transmitted startup file; Server end sends startup file to client; After client was received startup file, client was finished startup.
Behind the client terminal start-up, create a virtual C dish with VLD technology or Ram Disk technology in client, the information of the inside is by the boot image download gained of Mix Client Kernel.Windows 2000 is this virtual C disk startup (loading the driving of minimal set), and driving network interface card, be connected to two other share directory (ReadShare and Write Share) on the server with network, loading the VDSA file system then drives, virtual C dish is combined with these two share directories, realizing final Volume C, and then continue to finish its complete startup.
At this moment the user can move a desirable OS (linux, win9x, win2000......) environment, and enjoys the resource on local and the network.And to online visit just as the visit local resource.
Above system had not only finished systemic-function but also had satisfied user's demand, and upgrading is also very convenient.
It is the network computer support platform system that is called N.C.magic that a typical case of the present invention uses, it is a kind of NC network computer support platform, use the specific versions of VDSA technology, system is installed in (Windwos NT4 or Windows 2000 server) on the server, startup of server VDSA service, client needn't be adorned hard disk, be connected with server by network, select the network startup mode, startup chip by network interface card or refresh BIOS and download from server and start reflection starts to the OS state then.
The compatible Intel PXE of N.C.Magic has increased the dirigibility of application scheme.The use of N.C.Magic reduces hardware cost and system maintenance cost, and user's total cost TCO reaches minimum.
N.C.Magic starts the function except that providing, and also has very powerful management function.Client is installed all clients of once uploading onto the server then and all can be used, the software upgrading of client is finished by " power user ", any user that " power user " is actually in the server end mandate, " power user " install or deletion software comes into force to whole clients.Can also be from a lot of client-side management functions such as the direct switching on and shutting down of server.
N.C.Magic system basic comprising comprises: server, client, switch, network computer support platform software, server software, client software, its function mainly realizes with software mode.
The server-side system environment comprises operating system Windows 2000 Advance Server/Server or WindowsNT4 Server.TCP/IP and IPX network agreement are installed, allow enough client connection, hard disk preferably to do RAID 0 or SCSI hard disk and bigger hard drive space is arranged.
The client environment comprises operating system Microsoft Windows, TCP/IP procotol, and has the PXE guiding function.
The present invention is to have adopted the VDSA core technology for the outstanding contributions of prior art, the technical difficulty height, but system performance is very superior.VDSA (the Virtual Disk System Architecture) is the technology that the inventor creates, and it mainly comprises the content of following several respects: server is provided with network virtual dish servo-drive system (data dispatch and file management), server cluster turn-key system (login management, virtual disk management, telemanagement, user's running environment layer managing system).Network can be supported and manages agreements such as IPX, TCP/IP, PXE, EFI.Site customers is provided with OS mirror image management system.
In brief, adopted VDSA technology kernel, whole network is worked just as a computing machine; Do not need the client computer is managed; OS and application software need be installed on the client computer; The client computer does not need hard disk; The client computer can not produce garbage files; The client computer can be defendd all known and unknown viruses; Maintenance server, all online users can enjoy the upgrading of software automatically.The present invention has obtained conclusive progress aspect the computer network supporting platform.
Technological innovation of the present invention, the one, the security system OS kernel of simplifying of well-designed curing.Its innovative point is to require server end to adopt the security system OS kernel of simplifying that solidifies in VDSA (the Virtual Disk System Architecture) technology, and can be applicable to standard and the non-standard system architecture on upper strata; On the OS System Design, meet and exceed the product platform of international similar hit product, reach the core technology requirement of defence product at home.Its innovation difficulty is how to go out rational OS system in conjunction with actual design, and can be with standard and non-standard system architecture under the situation that kernel support and OS simplify.Need the developer deeply to grasp Principles of Operating System/kernel framework and realization, can design from kernel/bottom layer driving to system layer and develop, difficulty is higher.
The 2nd, the virtual store network technology that design is leading, it is VDSA (the Virtual Disk Sys temArchitecture) technology, when supporting that Windows XP/2000 does not have in the flaking network, be different from the simple realization pattern that win98 uses volume fully, and be to use the technology that the magnetic track of XP/2000 system complex is handled.The moment that needs emphasis to solve virtual store in the network recovers and the moment backup, the load balance process of resource under the cluster mode.
The 3rd, have the anti-collapse and the disaster recovery of characteristic.Arbitrarily outage and switching on and shutting down and system is not had any impact.Its method be kernel before Load System startup process with regard to the initialization apparatus file system, and it is synchronous to adjust disk simultaneously, anti-collapsibility can make 1,000,000 outages and the illegal seedless attitude of shutdown or system data lose after tested, and the programmed control by characteristic reaches perfect disaster recovery performance again.
Virtual architecture formula network computer support platform system structure comprises client terminal structure as shown in Figure 2, and the server end structure is read shared region Read Share and write shared region Write Share.Wherein, Windows base kernel is meant the lease core file set of Windows 2000, has comprised the file system and the network startup part that are enough to start Windows 2000, with the form appearance of disk image.
Because the host name of every client computer, information such as IP are all different, so their core document disk image is all inequality (as registry information, the SAM database), but most of files are identical, write down different parts so just introduce a private core district Kernel difference.The client kernel ClientKernel that downloads of each client computer is actually the combination image file (Mixed Client Kernel) of Windows Base Kernel (shared) and its modification place (different separately) like this.
This Mixed Client Kernel reflection is the client kernel Client Kernei (VirtualVolume C) on the client computer, and two kinds of virtual C dishes of method construct are arranged, and promptly memory disk makes up Ram disk and large capacity disc structure VLD.
It among the Read Share complete original whole Windows system (comprising all application).Deposit comprise Program Files and Windows etc. original information on the disk workstation arranged.
Only there is one in this share directory in system, be read-only character.
Write Share is the share directory that is used to do virtual write protection, and each client computer all has one.Each client computer all can write.
The function that VDSA drives is the combination of files with Virtual Volume C and two share directories.Tackle the file read-write request of all systems.And judge the operation of being done according to the character of the file that will read and write:
During document retrieval, the file of three document sources is mixed demonstration, the priority that obtains file is client kernel Client Kernel successively, Write Share, Read Share.
When file reads, determine the priority that reads.
To client kernel Client Kernel file, directly read the big part of client kernel Client Kernel
To non-client kernel Client Kernel file, in Write share, read earlier, if can not find, read Read Share again.
File is write fashionable, by the kind generic operation that writes.
To client kernel Client Kernel file, if Virtual Volume C is by Ram Disk fabrication techniques, then write among the local Client RAM, if Virtual Volume C is by the VLD fabrication techniques, that is directly write among the private core district Kernel Difference of server.
To non-client kernel Client Kernel file, be written among the Write Share.
Another classic applications of virtual architecture formula network computer support platform system of the present invention is: for current China's Education Industry provides a perfect solution, overcome the present situation that Chinese region is vast, the working service personnel are less, make and the long-time failure-free operation that our school's computer system can be normal, stable guarantee that limited fund input is farthest utilized.The computer teaching platform that really allows school have to afford, afford to use, use well.
At present, the computer system type selecting of school has following several selection: the one, and be main PC system through PC hardware.Two to be based on WBT be the GC group connector type systematic, the 3rd, and common non-disk workstation.But above three types of systems all can not satisfy following the requirement simultaneously:
The one, terminal is the same with PC, complete and the PC compatibility of operating system and application program, all can directly install and use, but the PC external unit is plug and play all, keep the extendibility (available different CPU, internal memory, CD-ROM drive, floppy drive, hard disk, video card, sound card and various expansion card) the same that the user is wanted the same with the PC that hard disk is arranged and from the terminal install software and to change drive environment, the personalization that keeps PC with PC.The 2nd, possess the advanced networks computer system architecture of centralized management, centralized stores, centralized control, centralized maintenance, distributed arithmetic (being the local computing of terminal).The 3rd, the maintainer is simple as PC to the management maintenance of system.
Virtual architecture formula network computer support platform system of the present invention, adopt VDSA (the Virtual Disk SystemArchi tecture) technology, realization is by the stores service of virtual disk on the Ethernet, make the hard disk among the PC shift out computer, be extended down in the VDSA network memory management device in the network.Concerning the operating system of network PC, it is thought or the complete PC of local hard drive is arranged, it does not also know that hard disc data is placed in the storage medium in the network, this just makes the network PC that has adopted the VDSA technology, not only has the repertoire of PC, compatible all PC softwares, and system's backup and reduction at any time, and allowing to keep user's personal settings, VDSA network memory management device configuration requirement is not high simultaneously, can serve 60 websites.
Find by contrasting us, virtual architecture formula network computer support platform system campus network computer system of the present invention is when having ensured that the daily high density of school, big quantity are according to the picture teaching demand, make the maintenance work of network management system become simpler and clearer, alleviate difficulty and the cost of teacher's maintenance management, control, greatly reduced teacher's workload.Simultaneously, on the nervous relatively education fund of school, can reduce the operating cost of computer system to greatest extent, allow school's pooling funds do the campus informatization construction well.
In sum, the kernel of VDSA of the present invention is to use debugging, advanced technology and good stability through many-side. This is System has following main characteristics:
Based on the C/S framework, have good security, stability, extensibility and platform-neutral; The Linux that solidifies System kernel and application system kernel make the operating efficiency of system extremely strong, and have prevented the collapse of system; Virtual memory is calculated Method is outstanding, and the real time access speed of network virtual dish is fast; The CRC algorithm of optimizing makes the data-transmitting fault-tolerant height; Client's end mirror The automatic repair function of picture file guarantees that work station is not subjected to virus infraction; The server controls platform is supported remote maintenance, TCO Reach optimization; Information exchange between the abundant Interface realization different system is provided, really realizes the knowledge sharing and alternation of information; Utilize advanced encryption technology RSA, RC2, RC4, MD5 scheduling algorithm, realize encryption and the digital signature of safety; Easily Realize data interaction and information transmission between intranet and extranet; Powerful integration capability makes system compatibility extremely strong; Support that the user's is many Plant access mode (multipad/browser/wireless device etc.); Cross-platform, multilingual support. With operating system, Database, application server have nothing to do.
In view of above characteristics, system has extremely strong competitiveness. And have a following advantage:
Fast guiding. Owing to for example installed and automatically to have moved guide service, client behind the startup of server of N.C.Mag ic Request is namely sent in start, obtains beginning to start by client after the server response, enters very soon the Windows system, Usually faster than hard disk startup, 30 start to simultaneously the demonstration windows desktop and only need 1 minute and 50 seconds. One station server can Support more than 100 client.
Safeguard simple. At first, installation process shows, the whole system platform, and for example the installation of N.C.Magic is in fact only Need build-in services device and client respectively once, secondly, (it is set is all upgrading client softwares arbitrary client The power user) once mounting gets final product, and again, the runnable interface of N.C.Magic provides backup and recovered merit on the server Can, system limits the use of the family for equity stock and protects, and is impaired thereby system is not easy.
Convenient management. For example the keeper can be clear that current client from the runnable interface of server N.C.Magic Terminal device duty (user name before indicator lamp show), can be directly at the server remote activation, close and wake up client, But the information such as batch setting user's IP address (initial) and gateway, DNS, can also be as required to different user or The different periods arrange different environments for use, such as the office computer of Chinese language teaching and research room and mathematics teaching and research room on courseware provides Just different, on audio-visual education room, all machines can be made as system of Chinese language teaching and research room during Chinese course, and on audio-visual education room mathematics Class hour then can be made as all machines system of mathematics teaching and research room, In the view of the student use be not " joyful " computer and more As if senior learning machine.
Support extensively. The one, to the extensive support of hardware, Intel PXE has become industry standard, most mainboards Support all that with network interface card for example N.C.Magic optimizes for mainboard and network interface card commonly used in design, make its operation more Add stable smoothness, the 2nd, very good to the support of using software, all clients can be moved large software simultaneously, can be simultaneously Movie, these may not realize that on the WBT Terminal Type system is protected and does not allow to write, but N.C.Magic Software is to have added virtual write-in functions, and the data in magnetic disk exchange that application software is in operation is just unaffected, so reason Say that application examples of the present invention such as N.C.Magic platform can support all application software on the opinion.
Data security. Client does not have hard disk, and not only operating system, application software etc. leave server in, and the user Server is all left in the company profiles such as the document of setting up, customer data, business contact, according to application data is pacified The requirement of full property can manage data easily. Even without professional tool with Windows 2000 Server Under authority definition just can well manage.
