Abstract

The invention relates to a system for realizing remote testing on a computer device without a storage device and a testing method thereof. The system and the testing method thereof are characterized in that a local terminal can select a required operating system mapping file from a server and is used for providing initial processing of an operating system of the local terminal. The testing method comprises the following steps: initializing a virtual disk in the local terminal; registering the virtual disk to a basic input output system of the local terminal; connecting the virtual disk to a server side by a network according to connection information in the virtual disk; loading start-up information to the local terminal from the server side; and carrying out a start-up program on the local terminal according to the start-up information. Therefore, the local terminal can initialize the virtual disk from the server side for the local terminal to carry out start-up operation in the start-up process.

Description

Realize the system and the method thereof of remote testing at the computer installation of nonstorage device
Technical field
A kind of boot test system and method for testing to the local terminal are particularly to system and method for testing thereof in the computer installation realization remote testing of nonstorage device.
Background technology
Along with the continuous lifting of network transfer speeds, no longer be confined to browsing page or transmission data for the application of network.More the someone proposes to utilize the existing network architecture to come the conception of building network computer.Network computer is not provided with storage device exactly in the local terminal.But the local terminal is connected to server end by network, from server end, extract the required data of local terminal operation again.
The general using network connects long-range disk regular meeting and adopts pre-start execution environment (prebootexecution environment is hereinafter to be referred as PXE).PXE is except data that can the retrieval server end are supported operation that the local terminal starts shooting, and PXE also can utilize server to bring in the installation of carrying out the system or the application program of local terminal.Generally speaking, in order to realize above-mentioned remote-operated function, PXE can be copied in the flash memory (Flash memory) on the network card.After local terminal start, PXE then is the network card address of the server end received according to the local terminal, makes that the local terminal can be online with server end.
Please refer to shown in Figure 1ly, it is the flow chart of the online running of known PXE.
At first, the automatic startup chip (Boot ROM) in the network card of start back, local terminal obtains to do selftest earlier before the control, sends a solicited message (step S110) with the forms of broadcasting then.
If server end is received the requirement that the local terminal is sent, will reply a confirmation and give local terminal (step S120).Include respectively in the confirmation: default communication channel and start image file.Default communication channel is the relevant information that is used for confirming that procotol online between local terminal and server end or connectivity port etc. are connected.The start image file then is the desired boot system file in local terminal.
The local terminal then can send a response message after receiving the affirmation information that server end beams back, and is used for the announcement server end to begin to transmit the local terminal and start required start image file (step S130).Begin to download the start image file (step S140) of supporting the local terminal start from server end.The local terminal receives the start image file finish after, the unlatching (step S150) that the pilot operationp system can be come according to the start image file in the local terminal.
Though can carry out long-range local terminal is carried out the installation or the execution of system by PXE, still have many inconveniences in the use of PXE.Shortcoming in the PXE use is as follows: 1. network card must be supported PXE, otherwise can't start relevant function.2.PXE the support to tcp/ip layer is low, and does not support the optical fiber communication agreement.3.PXE need the user to define voluntarily that (NetworkBootstrap Program NBP) revises interrupt vector table to the network boot program.4.PXE agreement is based on the network equipment, makes that PXE is unfavorable for being adopted by the equipment of other type.
Summary of the invention
In view of above problem, main purpose of the present invention is to provide a kind of test macro of operating system of virtual local terminal, it is characterized in that the local terminal can select required mapping document of operation system from server end, and be used to provide the initiated process of the operating system of local terminal.
For achieving the above object, a kind of computer installation at nonstorage device disclosed in this invention realizes that the system of remote testing includes: server end and local terminal.Server end is to store a plurality of batch operation system image files; The local terminal also includes in the local terminal by the internet connection service device end: virtual disk control module, network storage device and network communication module.The virtual disk control module is arranged in the initial internal memory in the local terminal, the virtual disk control module is used to provide virtual disk, and virtual disk is connected to the remote disk of server end, the command server end is loaded into selected mapping document of operation system in the remote disk; Network storage device is used for the start image file that the reception server end is sent; Network communication module is used for setting up relevant network service with server end.
From another viewpoint of the present invention, the present invention proposes a kind of method that realizes remote testing at the computer installation of nonstorage device, it is characterized in that the local terminal can select required mapping document of operation system from server end, and be used to provide the initiated process of the operating system of local terminal.
For achieving the above object, the method for testing of the operating system of a kind of virtual local terminal disclosed in this invention may further comprise the steps: initialization virtual disk in the local terminal; Basic input output system registration virtual disk to the local terminal; Be connected to server end according to the link information in the virtual disk by network; Load log-on message to the local terminal from server end; According to log-on message boot program is carried out in the local terminal.
According to embodiments of the invention, virtual disk is registered in the basic input output system of local terminal when starting shooting in the local terminal, make the operation of starting shooting with virtual disk in the local terminal.And in the start of local terminal, the local terminal can connect to the remote disk in the server end, and calls corresponding mapping document of operation system.Make the local terminal can utilize the mode of virtual disk to enter in the corresponding operating system.Thus, memory device can not need be carried in the local terminal, also can reach the purpose of start test.
