Abstract
Storage device field of the present invention, more particularly to a kind of the system firmware upgrade method and system of middle and high end storage, this system firmware upgrade mechanism is that firmware upgrade is embedded into system upgrade, updated with the renewal of new system version, if firmware upgrade have failed, correlation can be printed to report an error daily record, and automatic after system is restarted every time carry out firmware upgrade.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to storage device field, system firmware upgrade method and be that more particularly to a kind of middle and high end stores
System.
Background technology
With the fast development of storage device, middle and high end storage is gradually favored be subject to more users, and during with information
The arriving in generation, the design dispatched from the factory are difficult comprehensively to meet customer need, and therefore, the frequent canned system of our meetings is so as to be risen
Level.Need user is manual to upgrade again to firmware after conventional system upgrade, it is complicated to be unfavorable for user's use,
If firmware upgrade failure or firmware upgrade are not newest versions, it is easy to cause under same system firmware version different or
The identical chaotic and complicated phenomenon of firmware version, is unfavorable for analyzing and positioning problem under person's different system.Therefore, it is a kind of right to be badly in need of
The mode of firmware upgrade can solve the above problems.
The content of the invention
In order to improve the success rate of firmware updating and improve the satisfaction of user, the present invention proposes a kind of middle and high end storage
System firmware upgrade method and system.
The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions, and the present invention provides a kind of firmware upgrade method, the firmware upgrade
Method is embedded into during system upgrade.
Preferably, in the firmware upgrade method, CMC, CMC CPLD, BMC, NODE CPLD, 8733,8796 firmwares are by suitable
Sequence is upgraded.
Preferably, when any firmware upgrade fails, performing node can report an error, and prompt customer upgrade failure.
The present invention also provides a kind of firmware upgrade system, which includes two nodes, First CMC, second CMCs.
Preferably, which is switched to First CMC to be upgraded for CMC before performing upgrading.
Preferably, judge whether First CMC to be upgraded is switched to standby CMC, determine that it has switched to standby CMC, hold
Row firmware upgrade.
Preferably, which realizes firmware upgrade using the method.
The present invention is that firmware upgrade is embedded into system upgrade relative to the beneficial effect of the prior art, with new system
Unite version renewal and update, if firmware upgrade have failed, can print correlation reports an error daily record, and after system is restarted every time from
It is dynamic to carry out firmware upgrade, be conducive to increase customer satisfaction degree, lift product competitiveness.
Brief description of the drawings
The system firmware upgrading flow chart that Fig. 1 one embodiment of the invention provides
The system firmware upgrade-system block diagram that Fig. 2 one embodiment of the invention provides
Embodiment
Presently preferred embodiments of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.Following embodiments are only used for clearer
Ground illustrates technical scheme, and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention and limits the scope of the invention.
System upgrade can attach CMC in the present embodiment, CMC CPLD, BMC, NODE CPLD, 8733,8796 firmwares from
Dynamic upgrade function, system first determine whether firmware version number has been latest edition number, if being latest edition number, carry out
Next firmware version number judges that to the last a firmware version number judges that this time firmware upgrade terminates, if firmware version
Number it is not that latest edition number then needs to carry out the online upgrading of this firmware, is got from system/compass/00000006 bags
Latest firmware version bag is upgraded, and record log 1.If firmware upgrade fails, can carry out checking positioning point by daily record 1
Analysis, after restarting system, system still can judge firmware version number first, then carry out firmware on line upgrading, and record log 2.
System be recycled record it is newest upgrade daily record three times, if upgrading always same firmware upgrade failure in daily record three times, it is proposed that
Upgrading manually.
Fig. 1 shows system upgrade flow, BIOS, and 8733,8796, CMC, CMC CPLD, BMC, Node CPLD firmwares are pressed
Order is upgraded, because after having upgraded Node CPLD, mainboard can restart automatically, so being placed on last upgrading.When any firmware
During upgrading failure, 525error can be reported by performing node Node, prompt customer upgrade failure, failure cause is checked by daily record,
Reboot node Node systems can carry out firmware upgrade again according to upgrading flow chart.
Fig. 2 is hardware topology, and two nodes interconnect respectively with main CMC for CMC, it should be noted that when upgrading main CMC, is needed
Main CMC is first switched to standby CMC.Fig. 2 shows a kind of embodiment, binds upgrading CMC0 using node 0, node 1 is bound
Upgrade CMC1, so design is in order to avoid when node 0 and node 1 all go to upgrade the concurrent phenomenon of CMC appearance.Art technology
What personnel knew, it can be performed using other alternative modes, the present invention does not limit.When upgrading CMC, CMC can be related to
Active-standby switch, for example remove upgrading CMC0 now, then it is main CMC by CMC1 switchings, ipmi active-standby switch orders successful execution returns to 0
Afterwards, do not guarantee to switch successfully, so having added active and standby judgement herein, be switched to just carry out for after in definite CMC to be upgraded
Upgrading, can carry out failure and retry 3 times herein.
The present invention also provides a kind of storage medium, computer program stored instructs on the medium, which is used to perform following steps：
Judge whether firmware version number has been latest edition number, if it is determined that be not latest edition number, then need to carry out this firmware
Line upgrades, and latest firmware version bag is got from system/compass/00000006 bags and is upgraded；If latest edition has been it
This number, then next firmware version number judgement is carried out, to the last a firmware version number judges that this time firmware upgrade terminates.
The present invention also provides a kind of computer program product, including for judging whether firmware version number is latest edition
Module；For performing the module of firmware upgrade；Including for failing when firmware upgrade, prompting the module of customer upgrade failure.
The present invention also provides a kind of storage device, its escalation process includes system upgrade, and wherein the system upgrade attaches
The step of firmware upgrade process, escalation process be may include as in the foregoing embodiment, may also comprise such as corresponding computer program,
To perform the method flow.
The foregoing is merely illustrative of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, is not intended to limit the invention, all essences in the present invention
All any modification, equivalent and improvement made within refreshing and principle etc., should all be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
