Embodiment
As shown in Figure 1, be the applied environment figure of BMC remote debugging system of the present invention.BMC remote debugging system 34 is applied in server 1 and debugs BMC3.Described server 1 also comprises serial ports 31 and network interface card 32.Described BMC3 comprises buffer zone 1, buffer zone 2 35, storer 36 and processor 37.Described server 1 is communicated with remote terminal 4 by described network interface card 32.Described remote terminal 4, for when BMC occurs abnormal, sends debug command according to BMC abnormal information.
Described buffer zone 1 is for storing abnormal information, and described exception, as crashed suddenly when BMC starts to kernel, when BMC10 startup optimization crashes suddenly to certain thread, BMC10 runs, network error etc. occurs.
Described buffer zone 2 35 for storing debug command, the order of the debugging BMC that described debug command sends for described abnormal information when remote terminal 4 occurs abnormal according to BMC.
The serial ports that described serial ports 31 exports for this locality of BMC running status, for used at this locality debugging BMC.
Described remote terminal 4 can be desktop computer, notebook computer, panel computer etc.
As shown in Figure 2, be the module map of BMC remote debugging system.In the present embodiment, described BMC remote debugging system 34 comprises and arranges module 340, judge module 341, trigger module 342, receiver module 343, acquisition module 344, sending module 345 and execution module 346.Module alleged by the present invention refer to a kind of can be performed and the series of computation machine program segment of fixed function can be completed by processor 37, it is stored in storer 36.In the present embodiment, the function about each module will specifically describe in the flowchart of fig. 3.
As shown in Figure 3, be the process flow diagram of preferred embodiment of BMC remote debugging method of the present invention.According to different demands, in this process flow diagram, the order of step can change, and some step can be omitted.
Step S10, arrange module 340 and arrange the debud mode that original equipment manufacturer (Original Equipment Manufacturer, OEM) order carrys out control BMC3, described debud mode comprises AccessPort and remote debugging.0 representative " AccessPort " is such as set, 1 representative " remote debugging " is set.The acquiescence debud mode of BMC3 is AccessPort.
Step S11, when BMC3 carries out AccessPort, according to whether recording abnormal information in the log daily record of the storer 36 of BMC3, judge module 341 judges whether BMC exception occurs.
In the log daily record of the storer 36 of BMC3, have recorded abnormal information, then BMC there occurs exception, performs step S12; In the log daily record of the storer 36 of BMC3, do not have recording exceptional information, then not there is exception in BMC, and this flow process terminates.
Step S12, described trigger module 342 trigger remote terminal 4 sends OEM order, to switch the debud mode of BMC3 for remote debugging.
Step S13, the debud mode of described BMC switches in remote debugging by the described OEM order that receiver module 343 receives remote terminal 4 transmission.In the performance of operation interface, the selection window of a debud mode can be set at the display interface of remote terminal 4, this remote terminal 4 be triggered to send OEM order time, this selection window occurs, and receives the selection of client.
Step S14, acquisition module 344 obtains described BMC3 and abnormal abnormal information occurs, and by this abnormal information write buffer zone 1.
Step S15, the abnormal information in buffer zone 1 is sent to remote terminal 4 by network interface card 32 by sending module 345.
Step S16, remote terminal 4 analyzes the reason of this exception according to the described abnormal information received, and sends the debug command of this exception.For often kind of abnormal information, corresponding at least one debug command.
Step S17, receiver module 343 utilizes network interface card 32 to receive the described abnormal debug command of remote terminal 4 transmission, and debug command is write in buffer zone 2 35.
Step S18, execution module 346 reads described abnormal debug command from buffer zone 2 35, and performs this debug command to debug the exception of BMC3.
After described abnormal debugging, described trigger module 342 trigger remote terminal 4 sends OEM order and is switched on AccessPort by the debud mode of BMC3.
By the present invention, the information of this exception when BMC occurs abnormal, can be sent to remote terminal by described BMC remote debugging system, and remote terminal sends debug command to BMC to debug the exception of BMC extremely according to this.So do not need serial ports to debug BMC, and again can remote diagnosis and debugging, be very easy to the system development of staff, debugging and test.
Finally it should be noted that, above embodiment is only in order to illustrate technical scheme of the present invention and unrestricted, although with reference to preferred embodiment to invention has been detailed description, those of ordinary skill in the art is to be understood that, can modify to technical scheme of the present invention or equivalent replacement, and not depart from the spirit and scope of technical solution of the present invention.
