Abstract

The invention provides a method for testing the speed-adjusting function of a system fan, wherein the IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface) instructions of an OEM (original equipment manufacturer) are sent to a BMC (Baseboard Management Controller); according to the IPMI instructions, the BMC controls the system fan in four grades, such as a low speed, an intermediate speed, a high speed and a full speed, then checks the rotation speed of the fan, and determines whether the rotation speed of the fan is in a specific rotation speed grade; therefore, the purpose of testing and verifying the correctness of the speed-adjusting function of the fan is achieved; and the method comprises the following specific steps: (1) formatting a U flash disk into a Dos startup disk under a windows system; (2) copying IPMIToo1 software under Dos into the U flash disk; (3) starting a system to enter the Dos, sending specific IPMI instructions to the BMC by using the IPMIToo1 software, and controlling the rotation speed of the fan to be in a specific rotation speed grade according to the IPMI instructions by the BMC; and (4) sending the IPMI instructions to read all rotation speeds of the fan by using the IPMIToo1 software, and judging whether all the rotation speeds of the fan are below the specific rotation speed grade.

Description

A kind of test method of system fan speed-regulating function
Technical field
The present invention relates to computer realm, be specifically related to a kind of test method of system fan speed-regulating function.
Background technique
In the development of high-performance server, system fan institute role is important.System fan is used for satisfying the radiating requirements of high-performance server, guarantees that all devices can normal and stable work.When satisfying radiating requirements, low power consumption and low noise become the target that all producers are pursued, and therefore use BMC to realize that the fan speed-regulating function becomes the function that must have.Yet when this function of testing authentication, conventional method is to use system tool to change system CPU and internal memory temperature, triggers the condition that BMC changes the system fan rotating speed, the correctness of testing authentication fan speed-regulating function.
The test method of traditional system fan speed-regulating function; The temperature that needs using system instrument change CPU and internal memory, however system tool has narrow limitation; CPU and internal memory temperature height and too high be can not make, test system fan low speed and demand at full speed also just can not be satisfied.In order to satisfy these FT function test demands, the test method that proposes a kind of system fan speed-regulating function is just necessary.
Summary of the invention
The test method that the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of system fan speed-regulating function.
The objective of the invention is to realize by following mode that this test method is to order to BMC through the IPMI that under Dos, uses IPMITool software to send OEM, BMC is in the different rotating speed grade according to IPMI command control system fan: comprise low speed; Middling speed; At a high speed, the IPMITool of four grades, and then use at full speed software is checked all rotation speeds of the fan; Judge whether rotation speed of the fan is in specific rotating speed grade, thereby reach the purpose of checking fan speed-regulating function correctness.
The invention has the beneficial effects as follows: use the IPMI order of OEM among the present invention, system fan can be set be in any rotating speed grade, rather than depend on the trigger condition of system fan speed governing.Simplified the difficulty of test, also solved simultaneously and can't test fan low speed and shortcoming at full speed.
Simplify the difficulty of system fan speed-regulating function test, also solved low speed and defective at full speed in can't test system fan speed-regulating function simultaneously.The test method of the system fan speed-regulating function among the present invention has above-mentioned advantage, makes to make the deficiency that has remedied conventional test methodologies it more be applicable to complicated high-performance server application, thereby have boundless development space.
Embodiment
The test method of a kind of system fan speed-regulating function of the present invention; This test method be in BMC OEM the IPMI order; The test subscriber uses IPMITool software to send the IPMI order under Dos; Notice BMC is a certain particular level with the system fan speed setting, reads all rotation speeds of the fan then, and whether judgement is in specific rotating speed grade.At first, USB flash disk is formatted into the Dos boot disk under the windows system; Secondly, with IPMITool software copy under the Dos in USB flash disk; Once more, start-up system gets among the Dos, uses IPMITool software to send specific I PMI and orders to BMC, and BMC is in specific rotating speed grade according to this IPMI order control rotation speed of the fan; At last, use IPMITool software to send the rotating speed that all fans are read in the IPMI order, judge whether all rotation speeds of the fan are in specific rotating speed grade.
Compare with the test method of traditional system fan speed-regulating function, the test method of the system fan speed-regulating function among the present invention have be prone to learn, easy-to-use, test characteristics such as comprehensive.
Except that the described technical characteristics of specification, be the known technology of those skilled in the art.

Claims (1)

1. the test method of a system fan speed-regulating function is characterized in that ordering to baseboard management controller BMC through the IPMI that sends OEM, and BMC is in low speed according to IPMI command control system fan; Middling speed, at a high speed, four grades of full speed; Check rotation speed of the fan then; Confirm whether rotation speed of the fan is in specific rotating speed grade, thereby reach the purpose of checking fan speed-regulating function correctness, concrete steps are following:
(1) USB flash disk is formatted into the Dos boot disk under the windows system;
(2) with IPMITool software copy under the Dos in USB flash disk;
(3) start-up system gets among the Dos, uses IPMITool software to send specific I PMI and orders to BMC, and BMC is in specific rotating speed grade according to this IPMI order control rotation speed of the fan;
