Abstract
The invention discloses a fault diagnosis method for a server in the power-down state. A server management controller BMC is responsible for monitoring the operation state of the server, and uses LED indicating lamps corresponding to components for carrying out fault diagnosis; when a fault occurs in the components of the server, the BMC is responsible for lightening the LED indicating lamps corresponding to the components, wherein a USB interface is designed to be arranged on a front panel of the server, the USB interface of a BMC monitoring chip is guided to the front panel of a case and is used for enabling an external USB mobile power source to provide power for the BMC and provide the fault diagnosis capability when the BMC is in the power-down state. When the fault occurs in the server, the BMC records the corresponding fault state into EEPROM and stores the fault state permanently until the fault state changes, and the BMC restores the fault state; the USB mobile power source is used for providing power for the BMC monitoring chip when the server is in the power-down state, the BMC detects that power is supplied by the USB mobile power source, lightens the LED indicating lamps of the components according to the server fault state stored in the EEPROM correspondingly, so that the fault diagnosis function is continued to be finished on the condition that the server is in the power-down state.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to server failure diagnostic field, be specifically related to a kind of method of power-down state server failure diagnosis.
Technical background
Development along with high-performance calculation machine technology, the parts of server are on the increase, also more and more urgent to the failure monitoring of server component, diagnosis, the monitoring management unit B MC of server (Baseboard Management Controller) is responsible for each parts of server to carry out condition monitoring.But along with increasing of server component, LED light for unit failure diagnosis reaches 30-40, for high-performance server, LED light for fault diagnosis reaches more than 60, the LED light of front panel cannot meet the requirement of server failure diagnosis, so the LED light of fault diagnosis can only be placed on mainboard.There is so again another one problem, when fault diagnosis is carried out to server in fault diagnosis personnel scene, server must be taken out from rack, open the chassis lid of server, these operations must be pulled out the power supply of server, and after traditional server power down, malfunction will be cleared, cannot playback server malfunction during operation, also just cannot reach the object of fault diagnosis.
Along with being on the increase of server component, complexity is more and more higher, and the time that after breaking down, tracing trouble spends is more and more longer, and traditional server cannot meet the requirement of unit failure diagnosis, and just to server failure, diagnosis has proposed new requirement for this.Therefore, the method for a kind of power-down state server failure diagnosis proposed just necessary.
Summary of the invention
The technical problem to be solved in the present invention is: a kind of method that power-down state server failure diagnosis is provided.
The technical solution adopted in the present invention is: the fault diagnosis that the present invention mentions is to take the fault diagnosis that server B MC (Baseboard Management Controller) is core.
A kind of method of power-down state server failure diagnosis, the LED light that each parts of server by utilizing are corresponding is carried out fault diagnosis, server management controller BMC is responsible for monitoring server running status, when server component breaks down, BMC is responsible for lighting the LED light that parts are corresponding, wherein, on server front panel, design a USB interface, the USB interface of BMC monitoring chip is guided on the front panel of cabinet, for external USB portable power source, to BMC, power, the ability of fault diagnosis under BMC power-down state is provided; In server normal course of operation, BMC is responsible for the running status of monitoring server, and when server breaks down, BMC is recorded to corresponding malfunction in EEPROM, and persistence, until malfunction changes, is preserved malfunction again; Under server power-down state, use USB portable power source to power to BMC monitoring chip, BMC detects the power supply of USB portable power source, can be according to the server failure state being kept in EEPROM, the LED light of corresponding point highlights part, reach the object of power-down state server failure diagnosis, made up the defect of traditional server trouble diagnosibility deficiency.
Described method flow is as follows:
First, in server normal course of operation, the running status of each parts of BMC monitoring server, when server component breaks down, the LED light of BMC corresponding point highlights part;
Secondly, during fault diagnosis, server power supply is broken, the LED light of parts is all extinguished, and then, takes out the battery interface position that USB portable power source is inserted in server front panel, portable power source is only given the peripheral circuit power supply of BMC chip and BMC chip, in BMC start-up course, powered battery detected, the malfunction while moving powering on shows fault diagnosis personnel by LED light again, is labeled as diagnostic process simultaneously;
Finally, after having diagnosed, insert power supply, it is Power supply that BMC detects, and no longer according to the malfunction of preserving, lights corresponding LED light, avoids that LED mistake is bright brings puzzlement to client, simultaneously, BMC detects the mark of diagnostic process, and the malfunction being kept in EEPROM is emptied, and removes the mark of diagnostic process simultaneously;
After server failure diagnosis, normally operation.
Beneficial effect of the present invention is:
Application based on high-performance server, parts are used more and more, complexity is more and more higher, after breaking down the time of tracing trouble cost more and more longer, so essential to the fault automatic monitoring of parts, diagnostic function.The invention provides and a kind ofly can under server power-down conditions, continue the fault diagnosis functions of server, made up the deficiency of traditional server method for diagnosing faults, make it be more suitable for high-performance computer application, thereby there is development space very widely.
