Abstract
The invention provides a method for monitoring a server and the server adopting the same. The server comprises a main board management controller and firmware arranged in the main board management controller; the firmware performs loaded operation after the server operates so as to acquire the in-band information of the server; and the main board management controller is used for acquiring the out-band information of the server. The server is unnecessarily installed with agent software, thereby reducing installation trouble; the management controller acquires the monitoring information only by an out-band interface and unnecessarily supports the in-band interface protocol, so that the software on the management control end can be easily written, and when the software is installed, the network partition is unnecessary; and the in-band and out-band information can be sent to the management control end by a uniform network interface, so work load for installing the software is reduced.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to computer technology, particularly relate to a kind of method for supervising and server of server.
Background technology
The system monitoring of server is the indispensable part of server stable operation, can in time find the fault of server and take certain measure by monitoring.The monitor message of server is obtained at present needs two approach: the monitor message of underlying hardware realizes by chip BMC (Management Controller of Baseboard Management Controller mainboard), BMC obtains the information of each transducer on the mainboard, these information are independent of operating system, belong to the way to manage of a kind of band outer (out-of-band).Obtain the software information of (in-band) in the band if desired, just an agent software need be installed in operating system, obtain the relevant information of softwares such as operating system, application software by this agent software, also can obtain by shell script, this all need be in server installation agent software or the manual relevant information of searching.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of existing server system monitoring scheme, as shown in Figure 1,120 pairs of servers 110 of management control end are monitored, what adopt is the mode that software and hardware information independently obtains separately, hardware information obtains by the BMC 112 of mainboard platform, and software information obtains by the agent software 111 that is installed in server end.Pass to management control end 120 by Ethernet interface 113 then, the management software by management control end 120 lumps together these information at last.
The shortcoming of this scheme is:
1) need implement to make troubles for the deployment of system at monitored server installation agent software 111;
2) communication inside and outside band needs artificial configuration just can focus on the network interface, otherwise will cause the burden of client's service network in extensive Network of Workstation;
3) hardware information and software information integrate by the management node of management control end, and management control end must receive the data of handling various protocols 131,132, needs correspondence that a plurality of protocol stack interfaces 121,122 are set;
4) server 110 need be installed different agent softwares according to different operating system (Linux or Windows), and management control end 120 will monitor a plurality of servers 110, brings the complexity on the Version Control.
Summary of the invention
The method for supervising and the server that the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of server solve prior art and adopt software the obtain in-band information bad adaptability of bringing, the technical problem of complex management.

Description of drawings
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of existing server system monitoring scheme;
The schematic diagram of the monitoring scheme that Fig. 2 embodiment of the invention provides;
The structure chart of the server that Fig. 3 embodiment of the invention provides.
Embodiment
For the purpose, technical scheme and the advantage that make the embodiment of the invention is clearer, specific embodiment is described in detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
The schematic diagram of the monitoring scheme that Fig. 2 embodiment of the invention provides, as shown in Figure 2,220 pairs of servers 210 of management control end are monitored, obtain the software and hardware information of server 210, hardware information obtains by the BMC 212 of mainboard platform, software information obtains by the firmware (firmware) 211 that is installed in BMC 212, and, software information and hardware information all are stored among the RAM of BMC 212, hardware information and software information pass to management control end 220 together by Ethernet interface 213 then, pass to management control end 220 because all be by BMC 212, rather than by the agent software transmission, therefore only adopt the host-host protocol 231 of band external tapping to get final product, accordingly, a correspondence is provided with protocol stack interface 221 and gets final product in the management control end 220, has omitted the agreement 132 and the protocol stack interface 122 of the band inner joint that agent software uses among Fig. 1, has simplified the complexity of management control end 220.
And, because firmware 211 can adapt to several operation systems, the software information of its acquisition has been stored among the RAM of BMC 212, therefore, need not consider the difference of the operating system of server 210, when a plurality of server 210 of management control end 220 monitoring, removed the trouble that software that a plurality of servers 210 at different operating system carry out differentiation is installed from, be convenient to management.
The structure chart of the server that Fig. 3 embodiment of the invention provides, as shown in Figure 3, server comprises Baseboard Management Controller BMC 312, also comprise the firmware 311 that is arranged in the described Baseboard Management Controller, be provided with RAM among the BMC312, be used for storage hardware information and software information, be provided with management interface 314 between BMC 312 and the server, BMC 312 also connects network chip 313.Hardware of server information is obtained by BMC 312; When operating system, firmware 311 is loaded into automatically by management interface 314 in the internal memory of server and moves, and obtains the information of operating system, application software, CPU, internal memory, then these information is sent among the RAM of BMC 312.Management control end can be by in time obtaining software, the hardware information of system with outer interface.
Based on the server that Fig. 3 embodiment provides, the steps flow chart of the inventive method embodiment is as follows:
When the operating system of server, firmware loads by management interface is moving;
Firmware moves, and obtains the in-band information of server, and in-band information is a software information, comprising: operation system information, host performance information, parts activation bit, system and application software information;
Software information is passed among the RAM of BMC;
BMC also obtains to be with external information, and the band external information is a hardware information, comprising: cpu temperature, rotation speed of the fan, supply voltage or the like, and these hardware informations also are stored among the RAM;
Management control end is by access to netwoks BMC, directly obtains the software and hardware information among the RAM of BMC by the band external tapping, because without access agent software, so without the tenaculum inner joint.
As from the foregoing, adopt the advantage of the embodiment of the invention to be:
1) need not reduce the trouble of installing at server installation agent software;
2) management control end is only obtained monitor message by the band external tapping, and without tenaculum inner joint agreement, the software programming of management control end is simple;
