Description

A kind of startup method for supporting multiple storage system FW versions
Technical field
The present invention relates to server storage testing field, and in particular to a kind of startup for supporting multiple storage system FW versions Method.This method is mainly that the storage system of 3 nearest different FW versions of retention time point is given tacit consent in storage system disk, is deposited Storage system starts from filling FW versions of last or nearest time point automatically, and automatically configures storage configuration information.In addition, It can also set and some specific FW version is changed to by artificial selection to start.Startup method deployment letter of the present invention Single, easy to implement, easily operation, can greatly improve storage testing efficiency.
Background technology
FW is (Firmware) firmware, it can be regarded as PC bios program.When common product dispatches from the factory, it can pass through Firmware updating can repair some BUG, or increase, change some functions.In server storage system carries out test process, The FW versions of often replacing storage system are needed, in most cases, server storage system only supports a FW version, if Need to change FW versions, then need to inquire the FW versions for needing to change, then upload in storage system boot disk, reselection Upgrade from storage system boot disk.The process that this changes upgrading is comparatively laborious.
For such case, a kind of startup method for supporting multiple storage system FW versions of the present application, the startup is set The method of putting is not necessarily to every time by artificially uploading filling FW versions, but system from retaining 3 of nearest timing node automatically The automatic start of nearest time is selected in FW versions, so that storage system has intellectuality in itself, has saved operation Time.In addition, startup method of the present invention can also retain the configuration information of each FW versions automatically, while can also set Whether artificial selection is configured by the configuration parameter of acquiescence, has both been saved the time and in turn simplify operation.
The content of the invention
The present invention relates in storage system dual controller, controller boot disk installs the startup method of multiple systems.Pass Most of boot disk of storage system of system is some edition system fixed of storage system, so causes opening for storage system Moving plate purposes is single, and the storage system more than edition comparison can not be started in time as required, complex for operation step.
The present invention provides a kind of startup method for supporting multiple storage systems, gives tacit consent in storage system disk by retention time The storage system of 3 nearest different FW versions of point, storage system is automatically from last or time point filling FW versions recently This startup, and fully automated configuration storage configuration information.It is also possible to it is changed to be had by some by artificial selection The FW versions of body carry out activation system.
Specifically, a kind of startup method for supporting multiple storage system FW versions is claimed in the application, it is characterised in that This method specifically comprises the following steps:
Storage system disk preserves three parts of system FW versions of storage system;
Storage system also retains the configuration parameter of each FW version while three parts of system FW versions are retained;
The startup of storage system acquiescence is to start from time point FW versions filling recently.
The startup method of multiple storage system FW versions is supported as described above, is further characterized in that, storage system disk is protected The strategy of storage system version is retained to preserve three parts of nearest FW versions, and at most only preserves three parts of FW versions.
The startup method of multiple storage system FW versions is supported as described above, is further characterized in that, a button is set, When the key is pressed, the FW versions to be started can be selected taking human as setting, rather than the newest F W versions of acquiescence.
The startup method of multiple storage system FW versions is supported as described above, is further characterized in that, if artificial change Startup version be not acquiescence newest F W versions, then storage system will with reference to retain configuration information reduction storage in matching somebody with somebody Put parameter.
Embodiment
The specific implementation step of startup method of the present invention is illustrated below by one embodiment:
1. storage system disk preserves 3 FW versions of storage system;
The strategy that storage system disk retains storage system version is, for example, first time FW version 1.0;Upgrade to for the second time FW version 2s .0;Third time upgrades to 3.0 FW versions, and such storage system disk will retain 3 system versions automatically;FW1.0; FW2.0;FW3.0
If upgrade to FW4.0 again, then system will retain automatically:FW2.0, FW3.0, FW4.0 totally three versions;With This analogizes, and that earliest version will be deleted covering into newest filling FW versions, storage system disk energy by storage system automatically 3FW version of storage system is enough preserved, and can only at most preserve 3 FW versions.
2. storage system also retains the configuration parameter of each FW version while three parts of system FW versions are retained;
3. the startup of storage system acquiescence is to be started by time point FW versions filling recently;
4. setting a button, when the key is pressed, the FW versions to be started can be selected taking human as setting, rather than acquiescence Newest F W versions;
5. if the startup version artificially changed is not the newest F W versions of acquiescence, then storage system is by with reference to reservation Configuration parameter in configuration information reduction storage.
It should be evident that illustrated above is only the specific embodiment of the present invention, for the common skill in this area For art personnel, on the premise of not paying creative work, other technical schemes can also be obtained according to the embodiment, Belong to the scope of protection of the invention.
Present invention operation implementation is simple and convenient, facilitates guest operation easy, is worth promoting.Technology of the present invention After scheme can also be adjusted, it is applied in different server or computer, method simple possible and technique effect shows Write, can be applied in practice extensively.
