[ detailed description ] embodiments
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, the present invention provides a server system, which is used in conjunction with a detection module 5 for detection, wherein the detection module 5 includes a detection board 51, a decoder 52 disposed on the detection board 51, and a code symbol display 53 disposed on the detection board 51 and connected to the decoder 52. The server system includes a main board 1, a processing unit 2 disposed on the main board 1, a plurality of hardware units (not shown) disposed on the main board 1 and controlled by the processing unit 2, a logical programming unit 3 disposed on the main board 1, a switching controller 4 disposed on the main board 1 and connecting the logical programming unit 3 and a decoder 52 of the detecting module 5, and a detecting module 5 connected to the main board 1. The switching controller 4 can be controlled by the logic programmable unit 3 to switch the connection to the processing unit 2, so that the processing unit 2 is connected to the decoder 52.
When the server system is powered on, the switch controller 4 is connected to the logic programmable unit 3 and connects the logic programmable unit 3 to the decoder 52, and the logic programmable unit 3 executes a multi-stage operation program of a power-on sequence instruction and controls to power on the motherboard 1, the processing unit 2 and the hardware units. The logically programmable unit 3 sequentially transmits an operation code generated by each of the sequentially executed operation programs to the decoder 52. The decoder 52 decodes the operation codes in sequence to make the code symbol display 53 display the corresponding code symbols in sequence, and when the logical programming unit 3 stops executing the power-on sequence command, the code symbol display 53 displays the code symbols corresponding to the operation codes generated by the operation program executed by the logical programming unit 3 at the moment. In the present embodiment, the switch controller 4 is connected to the logical programming unit 3 at a predetermined position, so that the logical programming unit 3 is connected to the decoder 52 every time the server system is powered on. The operation program of the power-on timing sequence instruction is a program CODE pattern (CPLD CODE) inside the Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) 3, so that the Programmable Logic Device 3 executes the power-on timing sequence instruction to sequentially execute the operation program and sequentially display corresponding CODE symbols through the CODE symbol display 53, that is, in this embodiment, the Programmable Logic Device 3 sequentially executes each section of operation program to generate corresponding operation CODEs, and the CODE symbol display 53 sequentially displays the CODE symbols corresponding to each operation CODE, but not limited thereto.
Specifically, when the server system is powered on, the logically programmable unit 3 sequentially executes each operation program (CPLD CODE) in the power-on sequence command, and when each operation program executed by the logically programmable unit 3 generates its corresponding operation CODE, the decoder 52 sequentially decodes the operation CODE, so that the CODE symbol display 53 sequentially displays the corresponding CODE symbols. When the logic programmable unit 3 interrupts executing the power-on sequence instruction, that is, the logic programmable unit 3 interrupts executing the power-on sequence instruction due to an error in the process of executing the power-on sequence instruction, which means that a certain operation program currently executing the power-on sequence instruction cannot be successfully completed, the logic programmable unit 3 stops executing the power-on sequence instruction. Therefore, when an error occurs in the operation program of a certain section in the power-on sequence command executed by the logic programming unit 3, the operation of the operation program of the other subsequent section is stopped, and at this time, the code symbol displayed by the code symbol display 53 is the code symbol corresponding to the operation code generated by the operation program that cannot be successfully executed by the logic programming unit 3. Therefore, the user can know which operation procedure of the power-on sequence command the logic programmable unit 3 has a problem when executing through the code symbol displayed by the code symbol display 53, and can quickly perform subsequent adjustment and maintenance operations, thereby effectively saving time and improving detection efficiency.
Then, when the logically programmable unit 3 finishes executing the operation procedure of the power-on sequence instruction and controls the switching controller 4 to switch to connect to the processing unit 2, the processing unit 2 is connected to the decoder 52, and the processing unit 2 executes a plurality of stages of processing procedures of a basic input/output instruction and sequentially transmits a processing code generated by each stage of processing procedure executed sequentially to the decoder 52, and the decoder 52 sequentially decodes the processing code to sequentially display the corresponding code symbol on the code symbol display 53. In the embodiment, the basic input/output instruction (BIOS) is stored in a memory 21 connected to the processing unit 2, and the processing program of the BIOS is a program CODE pattern (BIOS CODE), so that the processing unit 2(CPU) executes the BIOS sequentially to execute the processing program, and the processing unit 2 generates the corresponding processing CODE when executing each processing program sequentially, and sequentially displays the CODE symbol corresponding to each processing CODE through the CODE symbol display 53. In other words, the logically programmable unit 3 finishes executing the operation procedure of the power-on sequence instruction, and the logically programmable unit 3 controls the switching controller 4 to switch to connect to the processing unit 2 and connect the processing unit 2 to the decoder 52, then the processing unit 2 executes the processing procedure of the bios and sequentially transfers the processing codes to the decoder 52, and the decoder 52 sequentially decodes the processing codes to sequentially display the corresponding code symbols on the code symbol display 53, if the processing unit 2 has an error in executing the bios, it represents that a certain processing procedure currently executing the bios cannot be successfully executed, and the processing unit 2 stops executing the bios, at this time, the code symbol displayed on the code symbol display 53 is the processing procedure that the processing unit 2 cannot be successfully executed at present The user can quickly know which processing program in the basic input/output instruction has a problem when the processing unit 2 executes, thereby effectively saving time. In the present embodiment, the code symbol display 53 is a seven-segment display, but not limited thereto, and it should be particularly noted that the code symbol display 53 has a two-code symbol display lamp 531 and two status indicator lamps 532. The status indicator lights 532 of the code symbol display 53 are illuminated when the switching controller 4 is connected to the logically programmable unit 3 and the logically programmable unit 3 is connected to the decoder 52; the switching controller 4 is connected to the processing unit 2 in a switching manner and connects the processing unit 2 to the decoder 52, and the status indicator 532 of the CODE symbol display 53 does not emit light, so that the user can know that a problem occurs in the stage of executing the power-on sequence command (CPLD CODE) by the logically programmable unit 3 or the stage of executing the basic input/output command (BIOS CODE) by the processing unit 2 by judging whether the status indicator 532 of the CODE symbol display 53 is lighted or not, and further know which operation program of the power-on sequence command (CPLD CODE) or which processing program of the basic input/output command (BIOS CODE) has a problem through the CODE symbol displayed by the CODE symbol display 531, so as to perform subsequent adjustment and maintenance operation, save time and labor, and improve the detection efficiency. Furthermore, by the design that the switching controller 4 can be connected to the logic programmable unit 3 and the logic programmable unit 3 is connected to the decoder 52 and can be switched to the processing unit 2 and the processing unit 2 is connected to the decoder 52, the application that the decoder 52 displays the corresponding code symbols sequentially through the code symbol display 53 can be matched, which not only effectively improves the tedious actions that 3 needs to be manually measured and detected one by one in the prior power-on timing sequence test process, but also the design that the logic programmable unit 3 and the processing unit 2 are switched and connected through the switching controller 4 does not need to separately connect the logic programmable unit 3 and the processing unit 2 to the decoder 52 of the detection module 5 through physical circuits respectively, and the code symbol display lamp 531 and the status indicator lamp 532 of the code symbol display 53 are matched, it is convenient for the user to determine whether the logic programmable unit 3 executes the power-on sequence command or the processing unit 2 executes the basic input/output command, and it is not necessary to prepare different detection modules 5 for different testing stages, and only one detection module 5 is needed.
Referring to fig. 1 and fig. 2, the server system detection method of the present invention is applied to the detection module 5 for detecting the server system. The server system detection method comprises a step (A), a step (B), a step (C), a step (D), a step (E) and a step (F).
First, in the step (a), when the server system is powered on, the switch controller 4 is connected to the logic programmable unit 3 and connects the logic programmable unit 3 to the decoder 52, and the logic programmable unit 3 executes a multi-stage operation program of a power-on sequence instruction and controls to power on the motherboard 1, the processing unit 2 and the hardware units. In short, when the server system is powered on, the logical programming unit 3 sequentially executes each operating program (CPLD CODE) in the power-on sequence instruction. In the embodiment, the operation procedure of the power-on sequence command is a program CODE pattern (CPLD CODE) inside the programmable logic unit 3(CPLD), and the predetermined location of the switch controller 4 is connected to the programmable logic unit 3 to connect the programmable logic unit 3 to the decoder 52, so that the programmable logic unit 3 is connected to the decoder 52 through the switch controller 4 each time the server system is powered on. The logic programmable unit 3 has a control pin 31, the switching controller 4 has a receiving pin 41 connected to the control pin 31, when the server system is powered on, the logic programmable unit 3 transmits a light signal from the control pin 31 to the decoder 52 via the receiving pin 41 of the switching controller 4, and the decoder 52 decodes the light signal to make the status indicator 532 of the code symbol display 53 emit light. In this embodiment, the control PIN 31 communicates with the receiving PIN 41 in a GPIO (general Purpose input/output) transmission manner, and the lighting signal causes the decoder 52 to raise a PIN Voltage level (PIN Voltage level) of a PIN corresponding to the status indicator 532, so as to cause the status indicator 532 to emit light, but not limited thereto.
Then, in the step (B), the logically programmable unit 3 sequentially transmits the operation codes generated by each of the sequentially executed operation procedures to the decoder 52, and the decoder 52 sequentially decodes the operation codes to sequentially display the corresponding code symbols on the code symbol display 53. In this embodiment, the logic programmable unit 3 executes the power-on sequence command to sequentially execute the operation programs and sequentially display the corresponding CODE symbols through the CODE symbol display 53, in this embodiment, each of the operation programs (CPLD CODE) has an output CODE program, when the logic programmable unit 3 sequentially executes the output CODE program of each of the operation programs, the corresponding operation CODEs are generated and sequentially transmitted to the decoder 52, and the decoder 52 sequentially decodes the operation CODEs and sequentially displays the CODE symbols corresponding to each of the operation CODEs on the CODE symbol display 53, but not limited thereto. That is, each operating program (CPLD CODE) has its corresponding operating CODE, so when the output CODE program of each operating program (CPLD CODE) is executed by the logical programming unit 3, the operating CODE corresponding to each operating program will be generated. In this embodiment, the design that the CPLD CODE (CPLD CODE) is built in the logical programming unit 3 and each segment of the operation program has a corresponding output CODE program allows the logical programming unit 3 to execute the output CODE program of each segment of the operation program to generate a corresponding operation CODE, and cooperate with the decoder 52 to decode the operation CODE to sequentially display the CODE symbol corresponding to each segment of the operation program on the CODE symbol display 53.
Then, in the step (C), during the execution of the power-on timing command by the logical programming unit 3, the logical programming unit 3 continuously determines whether the executed power-on timing command is interrupted. And in the step (F), if the determination in the step (C) is yes, the logically programmable unit 3 stops executing the power-on sequence instruction, at this time, the code symbol display 53 displays the code symbol of the operation code corresponding to the operation program executed by the logically programmable unit 3 currently. In other words, when the logically programmable unit 3 executes the power-on sequence instruction, that is, when the logically programmable unit 3 has an error in executing the power-on sequence instruction, it means that a certain operation program currently executing the power-on sequence instruction cannot be successfully executed, at this time, the logically programmable unit 3 determines that the executed power-on sequence instruction is the case of executing the interrupt. In addition, since the logical programming unit 3 executes the operation programs in sequence and displays the code symbols of the corresponding operation codes in sequence through the code symbol display 53, when an error occurs in one operation program in the power-on sequence command of the logical programming unit 3, the execution of the operation programs of other subsequent sections is stopped, at this time, the code symbol displayed by the code symbol display 53 is the code symbol corresponding to the operation code generated by the operation program which cannot be successfully executed by the logical programming unit 3, so that a user can quickly know which operation program in the power-on sequence command the logical programming unit 3 has a problem, and time is effectively saved.
Next, in the step (D), if the determination in the step (C) is negative, after the logically programmable unit 3 executes the operation procedure of completing the power-on sequence instruction, the switching controller 4 is controlled to switch to connect to the processing unit 2, so that the processing unit 2 is connected to the decoder 52. Finally, in the step (E), the processing unit 2 executes the multiple sections of the processing programs of the basic input/output instruction and sequentially transmits the processing codes corresponding to each of the sequentially executed processing programs to the decoder 52, and the decoder 52 sequentially decodes the processing codes and sequentially displays the corresponding code symbols on the code symbol display 53. In this embodiment, the logic programmable unit 3 controls the switching controller 4 to switch to the processing unit 2 by communicating with the receiving pin 41 of the switching controller 4 through the control pin 31 in a GPIO manner and switches the switching controller 4 to connect to the processing unit 2, so that the processing unit 2 is connected to the decoder 52, at this time, the logic programmable unit 3 synchronously transmits a dim signal through the control pin 31 to the decoder 52 through the receiving pin 41 of the switching controller 4, and the decoder 52 decodes the dim signal to make the status indicator 532 of the code symbol display 53 not emit light, but not limited thereto. The dim signal is to make the decoder 52 pull down the Voltage level (PIN Voltage level) of the PIN corresponding to the status indicator 532 to make the status indicator 532 not to emit light, but not limited to this, the processing program of the basic input/output instruction is a program CODE (BIOS CODE), so that the processing unit 2(CPU) executes the basic input/output instruction sequentially and displays the corresponding CODE symbols sequentially through the CODE symbol display 53. That is, the logic programmable unit 3 finishes executing the operation procedure of the power-on sequence command, and the logic programmable unit 3 controls the switching controller 4 to switch to connect to the processing unit 2 and connect the processing unit 2 to the decoder 52, and then the processing unit 2 executes the processing procedure of the bios command and sequentially transmits the processing codes to the decoder 52, and the decoder 52 sequentially decodes the processing codes to sequentially display the corresponding code symbols on the code symbol display 53. Additionally, if the processing unit 2 has an error during the execution of the bios instruction, it indicates that a certain processing program currently executing the bios instruction cannot be successfully executed, and the processing unit 2 stops executing the bios instruction, at this time, the code symbol displayed by the code symbol display 53 is the code symbol of the processing code corresponding to the processing program that the processing unit 2 cannot be successfully executed at present, so that the user can know which processing program in the bios instruction the processing unit 2 has executed has a problem, thereby effectively saving time.
In summary, the server system and the detection method thereof of the present invention use the switch controller 4 to connect to the logic programmable unit 3, connect the logic programmable unit 3 to the decoder 52, and cooperate with the decoder 52 to decode the operation codes in sequence to make the code symbol display 53 display the corresponding code symbols in sequence. When the logic programmable unit 3 interrupts the power-on sequence command, the code symbol display 53 will display the code symbol corresponding to the operation code generated by the operation program executed by the logic programmable unit 3, so as to know which operation program in the power-on sequence command the logic programmable unit 3 has a problem in executing, and perform the subsequent processing operation quickly, saving time and improving efficiency, thereby achieving the purpose of the present invention.
The above description is only for the specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of the changes or substitutions within the technical scope of the present invention, and the changes or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the present invention.
