Please refer to Fig. 2.Calcspar when Fig. 2 is power distribution unit 160 anergy of server cabinet 1 of the present invention in power distribution unit 160-164.In an embodiment, rack management control unit 18 will be by interruptedly not exporting respectively handshake to each power distribution unit 160-164, and when not receiving back-signalling in Preset Time, judgement power distribution unit 160 anergies.Rack management control unit 18 will be set up virtual power supply allocation units 180 in the inner, and pass through the first crosspoint 20 transmission failure signals to counter management control unit 2.Therefore, counter management control unit 2 will be exported the address mapping table 21 of its storage to rack management control unit 18.
Rack management control unit 18 further makes virtual power supply allocation units 180 from counter management control unit 2 receiver address mapping tables 21, setting up according to address mapping table 21 as illustrating with thick line in Fig. 2, the new transmission path of the server info 121 of first crosspoint 20-the second crosspoint 10-server host 120.
In an embodiment, each the heat-sink unit 140-144 in server cabinet 1 be electrically coupled to power distribution unit 160-164 wherein two.For instance, heat-sink unit 140 is and power distribution unit 160 and 161 phase electric property couplings.When power distribution unit 160 anergy, virtual power supply allocation units 180 by with power distribution unit 161 transmission radiating activation instructions to heat-sink unit 140, dispel the heat to control 140 pairs of server hosts 120 of heat-sink unit according to the server info 121 that is obtained by new transmission path.Should be noted, in other embodiment, being connected and backup mode between power distribution unit 160-164 and radiating module 140-144 can be different according to situation.
Therefore, server cabinet 1 in the present invention can be by the generation of virtual power supply allocation units 180 and the foundation of new transmission path, replace the power distribution unit 160 of anergy to carry out the acquisition of server info 121, and control by 161 pairs of heat-sink units 140 of wisdom power distribution unit of normal operation, reach the effect that does not affect 1 running of integrity service device rack.
In an embodiment, rack management control unit 18 is after power distribution unit 160 anergies, still interruptedly do not export handshake to the power distribution unit 160 of anergy, with when receiving back-signalling in Preset Time, the line of the power distribution unit 160 that rebulids original anergy and corresponding service area 12, and delete new transmission path, reply general operating mode.
Please refer to Fig. 3.Fig. 3 is in one embodiment of the invention, in order to the flow chart of method for managing system 300 of management server cabinet 1 as shown in Figure 1.Method for managing system 300 comprises the following step.
In step 301, interruptedly do not export respectively handshake to power distribution unit 160-164.
In step 302, whether judgement receives back-signalling in Preset Time.
In step 303, when not receiving back-signalling in Preset Time, set up virtual power supply allocation units 180.
In step 304, transmission failure signal is to counter management control unit 2.
In step 305, receiver address mapping table 21, and set up the new transmission path of the server info 121 of first crosspoint 20-the second crosspoint 10-server host 120 according to address mapping table 21.
In step 306, interruptedly do not export handshake.
In step 307, whether judgement receives back-signalling in Preset Time.
In step 308, when receiving back-signalling in Preset Time, delete new transmission path.
Therefore, management method in order to management server rack 1 in the present invention can be by the generation of virtual power supply allocation units 180 and the foundation of new transmission path, replace the power distribution unit 160 of anergy to carry out the acquisition of server info 121, and control by 161 pairs of heat-sink units 140 of wisdom power distribution unit of normal operation, reach the effect that does not affect 1 running of integrity service device rack.
Although the present invention discloses as above with execution mode; so it is not to limit the present invention; anyly be familiar with this skill person; without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention; when can be used for a variety of modifications and variations, so protection scope of the present invention is as the criterion when looking the scope that appending claims defines.
