Description

A kind of method of the outer batch upgrade BMC firmwares of band
Technical field
The present invention relates to computer software development field, and in particular to a kind of method of the outer batch upgrade BMC firmwares of band.This Apply for that the method for invention logs in web by simulation and updates firmware, realize that BMC firmware batch remotely updates, there is high stabilization Property and success rate, when efficiently solving to server B MC firmware batch upgradings, the problem of being wasted time and energy when workload is big.
Background technology
Equipment control generally can be divided into outband management and in-band management.Conventional remote equipment control is typically by with interior complete Into, remote desktop, the ssh, the telnet of interchanger etc. used such as server, these are all based on device operating system pair to set It is standby to be managed and safeguard.When system occurs abnormal then it is possible to that remote maintenance can not be carried out, now in addition to in-situ processing Method then be using equipment provide outband management interface.Outband management (Out-of-bandmanagement) is based on hard A kind of way to manage of part, management interface is provided using application specific hardware modules or special remote management card, passes through special number Remote maintenance and management are carried out to equipment according to passage, are totally independent of outside device operating system, it might even be possible to shut down in equipment Remote monitoring and management are carried out under state.Most servers provide outband management interface at present, and partial network devices also carry The outband management interface of confession.
At present, substantial amounts of server upgrades BMC (Baseboard Management by the demand of client every year Controller baseboard controllers), and configuration need to be retained, if upgraded using manpower, not only waste time and energy, nor Beneficial to the maintenance in later stage, so seeming increasingly important using a kind of BMC method for refreshing of high efficiency and time conservation.
BMC, it is necessary to configure many parameters, therefore will retain as management monitoring system during batch upgrade is carried out Configuration.BMC refreshing (renewal) instrument mainly has socflash, Yafuflash at present.Socflash is with interior upgrading BMC Instrument, there is high stability, but it can not retain configuration and refresh BMC, therefore our requirement can not be met. Yafuflash is the instrument with outer refreshing BMC, can select to add parameter reservation configuration refreshing, but Yafuflash is extremely unstable It is fixed, found by test, mistake occurs in input selection (yes/no) and upload etc. in Yafuflash --- Uboot Different、Free Memory Age.If BMC is brushed into " dead " in refresh process, that can only pass through Socflash or cd-rom recorder refresh firmware, and the configuration parameter that client is set will be unable to preserve, and therefore, need a kind of energy of stabilization badly The method of enough batch upgrade BMC firmwares.
It can stablize and the method for batch refresh upgrading BMC firmwares in view of the above-mentioned problems, the present application is a kind of, pass through Script realizes that simulation logs in web and refreshes firmware, realizes that BMC firmware batch remotely updates, with high stability and successfully Rate.
The content of the invention
Specific implementation process is as follows:
A kind of method of the outer batch upgrade BMC firmwares of band of the present application, this method specifically comprise the following steps:Treated Update the BMC of firmware IP address;Log in the BMC firmwares to be updated;The state of the BMC firmwares is checked, if not activation State is then logged off;If state of activation, then simulation logs in BMC Web, into BMC firmware generation patterns;In BMC firmwares Under generation patterns, upper transmitting file simultaneously verifies file type;If verifying file failure, prompt failure and exit;If checking By then starting to update BMC firmwares;Above step is repeated until batch BMC firmwares to be updated all update and finished.
Method as described above with outer batch upgrade BMC firmwares, is further characterized in that, if in renewal BMC firmware mistakes Occur abnormal in journey, then show error message and restarting of logging off.
Method as described above with outer batch upgrade BMC firmwares, is further characterized in that, while BMC firmwares are updated, Renewal progress is shown on screen.
Method as described above with outer batch upgrade BMC firmwares, is further characterized in that, updates and ties in each BMC firmwares Shu Hou, display are updated successfully information.
Embodiment
The method of the present application is to log in web renewals by simulation to refresh firmware, include checking BMC firmware types, Upload and update firmware, obtain the processes such as renewal progress.
More detailed elaboration is carried out to present disclosure below:
This is the preparation before firmware renewal first --- BMC firmware conditions is checked, are moved back if BMC is not active states Go out;If BMC is active states, simulation logs in BMC Web, into BMC firmware generation patterns, then upper transmitting file and File type is verified, if authentication failed, prompts failure, otherwise then starts to update BMC firmwares, real-time display in renewal process Renewal progress.
Part script is as follows:
(1) obtaining needs the BMC IP of batch updating firmware
(2) prepare, confirm BMC current states
(3) load and update firmware
(4) abnormality processing in firmware process is updated
(5) real-time display renewal progress
(6) final updated result is shown
Using method described herein, we have done 50 promotion and demotion on 20 machines and have refreshed experiment, by test Checking, success rate reach 98%, are far longer than success rates of the Yafuflash with outer refreshing.If in addition, script is modified slightly, Promotion and demotion refreshing it will may be modified such that single updates firmware repeatedly, when the renewal of client's high-volume upgrades BMC firmwares afterwards, selection The method will substantially reduce the input of human resources, and ensure to possess higher success rate.

Claims (4)

1. a kind of method of the outer batch upgrade BMC firmwares of band, this method specifically comprise the following steps:
Obtain the BMC of firmware to be updated IP address;
Log in the BMC firmwares to be updated;
The state of the BMC firmwares is checked, is then logged off if not state of activation;
If state of activation, then simulation logs in BMC Web, into BMC firmware generation patterns;
