Embodiment
As shown in Figure 1, be the running environment figure of baseboard management controller supervisory system of the present invention preferred embodiment.This baseboard management controller supervisory system 10 runs in server 1, this server 1 comprises system management ram (system management RAM, SMRAM) 11(is hereinafter to be referred as SMRAM 11), real-time timepiece chip (real time clock, RTC) 12(is designated hereinafter simply as RTC 12), platform controller maincenter (platform controller hub, PCH) 13(is designated hereinafter simply as PCH 13) and baseboard management controller (baseboard management controller, BMC) 14(be designated hereinafter simply as BMC 14).Described SMRAM 11 has stored monitor command, this monitor command is used for according to the state value of the clock signal timing acquisition BMC 14 of RTC 12, the state value that described baseboard management controller supervisory system 10 is obtained according to this judges that whether the operating system of server 1 is normal, and judges that whether the state of BMC 14 is normal.
As shown in Figure 2, be the functional block diagram of baseboard management controller supervisory system 10 in Fig. 1.Described baseboard management controller supervisory system 10 comprises: sending module 100, trigger module 101, module 102, execution module 103, the first judge module 104, the second judge module 105, replacement module 106 and logging modle 107 are set.Described module is the software program section with specific function, and this software is stored in computer-readable recording medium or other memory device, can be carried out by computing machine or other calculation element that comprises processor, thereby complete the monitoring task flow process of BMC 14 in the present invention.
Sending module 100 is for after server 1 powers on, and the time interval tranmitting data register signal that control RTC 12 sets according to user is to PCH 13.In the present embodiment, the time interval that this user sets can be 1 minute.
Trigger module 101 is for after PCH 13 receives described clock signal, at once triggering system management interrupt (system management interrupt, SMI).In the present embodiment, described trigger module 101 carrys out triggering system management interrupt by changing the state of the SMI pin of PCH 13.
Module 102 is set for after system management interrupt is triggered, the operating system schema of server 1 is set to System Management Mode (system management mode, SMM).
Execution module 103 is for carrying out the monitor command of SMRAM 11, to obtain the state value of BMC 14.Particularly, when this monitor command is performed, sends and obtain order to BMC 14, and obtain the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks.
The first judge module 104 is for judging whether SMRAM 11 receives the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks.If do not receive the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks, this first judge module 104 judges that the operating system of described server 1 is abnormal.
If SMRAM 11 receives the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks, the second judge module 105 is for judging whether this state value receiving is normal status value.For example: if BMC 14 normal status value are 0, described the second judge module 105 checks whether this state value receiving is 0, if 0, representing that this BMC 14 is normal, the state value receiving is normal status value, and process ends.
If the state value of the BMC receiving 14 is not normal status value, the module of resetting 106, for restarting server 1, makes BMC 14 return to normal condition.
There is abnormal situation for recording BMC 14 in logging modle 107, and sends a warning to system manager.If it is abnormal that BMC 14 occurs, the abnormal situation of record comprises the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks and the information such as time of feedback.Can there is abnormal reason and solve that this is abnormal according to the state value judgement BMC 14 of BMC 14 feedbacks in system manager.If operating system occurs abnormal, logging modle 107 records operating system and occurs the abnormal information such as time.
As shown in Figure 3, be the operation process chart of baseboard management controller method for supervising of the present invention preferred embodiment.
Step S30, after server 1 powers on, the time interval tranmitting data register signal that sending module 100 control RTC 12 set according to user is to PCH 13.
Step S31, trigger module 101, after PCH 13 receives described clock signal, triggers at once SMI and interrupts.In the present embodiment, described trigger module 101 carrys out triggering system management interrupt by changing the state of the SMI pin of PCH 13.
Step S32, the operating system schema that module 102 servers 1 are set is set to System Management Mode (system management mode, SMM).
Step S33, the monitor command that execution module 103 is carried out in SMRAM 11, to obtain the state value of BMC 14.Particularly, when this monitor command is performed, sends and obtain order to BMC 14, and obtain the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks.
Step S34, the first judge module 104 judges whether SMRAM 11 receives the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks.If SMRAM 11 does not receive the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks, perform step S35.If SMRAM 11 receives the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks, perform step S36.
Step S35, this first judge module 104 judges that the operating system of described server 1 is abnormal, and directly performs step S38.
Step S36, the second judge module 105 judges whether this state value receiving is normal status value.If the state value receiving is normal status value, process ends.If the state value receiving is up-set condition value, perform step S37.
Step S37, replacement module 106 restarts server 1, makes BMC 14 return to normal condition.
Step S38, logging modle 107 records BMC 14 or abnormal situation appears in operating system, and sends a warning to system manager.If it is abnormal that BMC 14 occurs, the abnormal situation of this record comprises the state value of BMC 14 feedbacks and the information such as time of feedback.Can there is abnormal reason and solve this abnormal method according to the state value judgement BMC 14 of BMC 14 feedbacks in system manager.If operating system occurs abnormal, logging modle 107 records operating system and occurs the abnormal information such as time.
It should be noted last that, above embodiment is only unrestricted in order to technical scheme of the present invention to be described, although the present invention is had been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiment, those of ordinary skill in the art is to be understood that, can modify or be equal to replacement technical scheme of the present invention, and not depart from the spirit and scope of technical solution of the present invention.
