Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, contents, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention will be made in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples.
The invention provides an optimized design method of a VPX case multi-board BIOS battery, which is characterized in that an on-board BIOS battery is not designed on a board card in a VPX case, but a large-capacity detachable storage battery is designed in the VPX case, the large-capacity detachable storage battery is interconnected with each VPX board card through P0 of a VPX bus to uniformly supply power to the BIOS of each VPX board card, an IPMI management network based on an IIC bus is designed, and the electric quantity of the large-capacity detachable storage battery is uploaded to an upper computer for real-time monitoring.
The VPX board card is a VPX board card which needs direct current of 3.3V to supply power to a BIOS circuit so as to keep system time, logs and the like. The invention removes the BIOS battery on the VPX board card, and provides 3.3V direct current for each VPX board card through the unified design of the VPX bus.
The VPX case is a 7U VPX reinforced case, adopts an air-cooled heat dissipation mode, places a large-capacity detachable battery at idle positions on two sides of the case, and uniformly provides 3.3V voltage for the VPX board card. VPX machine case design has IPMI management network, through the IIC bus, can monitor and manage the electric quantity of the battery can be dismantled to the large capacity, passes to the host computer on the electric quantity of the battery can be dismantled to the large capacity and carries out real time monitoring, if the circumstances that the electric quantity is not enough appear, the host computer can in time report to the police.
The method of the present invention is further described below with reference to the schematic diagram of the VPX chassis shown in fig. 1 and the schematic diagram of the optimized design of the VPX chassis BIOS battery shown in fig. 2.
As shown in fig. 1, in the VPX chassis, there are 1 power module, and other various functional boards that need BIOS battery power supply, which total N blocks, including a blade motherboard, a switch module, and a switch module. After the system is powered on, various functional board cards which need to be powered by a BIOS battery need to acquire information such as system time, logs and the like from a BIOS related circuit, and then the system is started normally. If the electric quantity of the BIOS battery is insufficient, various function boards needing to be powered by the BIOS battery cannot acquire correct information such as system time, logs and the like when the system is started, so that system time is wrong, even system breakdown is caused, and the system cannot be started. At this point, the BIOS battery needs to be replaced.
As shown in fig. 2, on the N VPX boards, onboard BIOS batteries are not designed, thereby reducing the trouble of respective maintenance of each board; the VPX board card is connected with a high-capacity direct-current 3.3V storage battery through P0 of a VPX bus, and directly obtains 3.3V voltage from the storage battery to an internal BIOS related circuit; the VPX board card and the storage battery are connected to the IPMI management network, the upper computer can acquire the real-time electric quantity of the storage battery through the IIC bus, timely maintenance is facilitated, when the electric quantity of the battery is lower than a threshold value, the monitoring interface of the upper computer can send out an alarm signal for replacing the battery in time, and maintenance time and troubleshooting time are greatly shortened.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several modifications and variations can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention, and these modifications and variations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
