Detailed Description
The technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
An embodiment of the present invention provides an information processing method, which is shown in fig. 1 and includes the following steps:
step 101, determining the position information of the server rack based on at least the received wireless signal strength.
102, when a first feedback signal of at least part of target slot positions in at least one slot position is obtained through the passive identification reader, determining that at least part of the target slot positions are in a state of placing a server based on the first feedback signal, and taking the relative positions of at least part of the target slot positions as the relative position information of the corresponding server.
103, sending the position information of the server rack and the relative position information of at least one server in the server rack to a management device;
here, the execution subject of steps 101 to 103 may be a processor in a server rack. In this embodiment, a wireless communication device is disposed on the server rack, and the server rack can receive a wireless signal sent by at least one wireless transmission point in the machine room through the wireless communication device; wherein the location of the at least one wireless transmission point may be pre-stored in the server rack. In this way, the server rack can obtain the position information of the server rack in the machine room according to the strength of the received wireless signal and the specific position of the wireless transmission point which transmits the wireless signal.
Preferably, step 101 may comprise the steps of:
acquiring wireless signals transmitted by at least three wireless transmitting points, and determining the wireless signal strength of the at least three wireless transmitting points;
and calculating the position information of the server rack based on the wireless signal strength of the at least three wireless transmission points and the position information of the at least three wireless transmission points.
In the above solution, the additional distances between the server rack and the at least three wireless transmission points are calculated by using a three-point positioning technique, thereby obtainingAccurate position information of the server rack. The three-point positioning principle is shown in FIG. 2, wherein the position information of the first wireless transmission point 201 is (x)1,y1) The location information of the second wireless transmission point 202 is (x)2,y2) The position information of the third wireless transmission point 203 is (x)3,y3) The server rack is located 204 between the three wireless transmission points. The server rack 204 determines the distances d from each wireless transmission point according to the received wireless signal strength of the three wireless transmission points1,d2,d3(ii) a Further, three circles are constructed by respectively taking the position of each wireless transmission point as the center of a circle and the distance between the wireless transmission point and the server rack as the radius, and the coordinates (x) of the intersection points of the three circles are used0,y0) As the position information of the server rack.
In practical applications, the server rack may include at least one slot, and each slot may be capable of placing a server. In this embodiment, the server rack may determine the relative position information of the server in the server rack by a feedback signal received by the passive identification reader disposed at each slot position.
Specifically, a passive identification reader is arranged at a first preset position of each slot position in a server rack, a passive identification tag is arranged at a second preset position of the server, and at least identification information of the server can be stored in the passive identification tag; in order to enable the passive identification tag of the server to be located in a reading range of the passive identification reader of the server rack after the server is inserted into the slot position of the server rack, the first preset position and the second preset position need to correspond to each other. Preferably, the first preset position and the second preset position can be set as shown in fig. 3, wherein 301 is a server rack, 302 and 303 are servers, the first preset position is located in 304 area and 305 area of the server rack shown in fig. 3, and the second preset position is located in 306 area of the server 302 and 303.
In other embodiments of the present invention, when a first feedback signal of at least part of the target slot positions in the at least one slot position is acquired by the passive identification reader, determining that the at least part of the target slot positions are in a state where the server is placed based on the first feedback signal specifically includes:
step 1021, starting a passive identification reader arranged on each slot position, and obtaining a first feedback signal of at least part of target slot positions when at least part of the passive identification readers read passive identification tags on servers arranged in at least part of the target slot positions;
step 1022, determining that the target slot position is in a state where the server is placed based on the first feedback signal corresponding to at least part of the target slot position;
the first feedback signal at least comprises mark information and function information of a server placed in the corresponding target slot position. Here, the flag information of the service may be a Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) of the server, which can uniquely identify the server; the function information of the server includes information such as the attribute and model of the service.
In practical application, the passive identification tag is not provided with a built-in battery, the passive identification tag is in a passive state when the reading range of the passive identification reader is out, and the passive identification tag extracts a power supply required by the work of the passive identification tag from the radio frequency energy emitted by the passive identification reader when the reading range of the passive identification reader is in. The passive identification tag transmits the first feedback signal to the passive identification reader in a reflection modulation mode.
Further, after the server rack receives a first feedback signal sent by the ith passive identification reader, it can be considered that a server is placed at the slot where the ith passive identification reader is located. And i is more than or equal to 1 and less than or equal to the total number of the passive identification readers in the server rack. In this way, the relative position of the slot where the ith passive identification reader is located in the server rack is used as the relative position information of the server in the rack.
In other embodiments of the present invention, the wireless positioning device of the server rack may further establish a wireless communication connection with the management device, and send the obtained position of the server rack and the position of the server placed in the server rack to the management device through the wireless communication connection, so that the management device establishes the three-dimensional topology image of the machine room after receiving the information.
The server rack may transmit the position information of the server rack and the relative position information of the service in the rack to the management device, and may transmit the function information of the server to the management device.
In another embodiment of the present invention, the information processing method further includes:
when the position of the server rack is detected to change, determining the position information of the server rack at least based on the received wireless signal strength to obtain updated position information of the server rack;
and sending the updated position information of the server rack to the management equipment.
Specifically, the server rack can detect whether the position of the server rack changes in real time through a gravity sensor; when the position change of the server rack is detected, the server rack automatically relocates the position of the server rack and sends the relocated position information to the management equipment; therefore, after the position of the rack is adjusted, the server rack can still be automatically positioned, and a new machine room topological image is generated through the management equipment. Here, after detecting the adjustment of the position of the server rack, in addition to repositioning the position of the server rack based on the wireless signal, it is necessary to simultaneously detect the servers in the server rack and update the relative position information of the servers placed in the server rack.
In other embodiments of the present invention, steps 101 to 103 may also be performed according to a preset time period, so as to achieve real-time detection of the position of the server rack and the relative position of each server in the rack.
Further, the information processing method further includes:
starting a passive identification reader in a preset time period, and acquiring a second feedback signal through the passive identification reader; the second feedback signal represents that the first target slot position is in a state where the server is not placed;
generating a notification message; the notification message is used for instructing the management equipment to delete the relative position information of the server in the first target slot position;
and sending the notification message to a management device.
Here, the server rack can start the passive identification reader on the slot position of the rack within a preset time period, and detect the server placed on the slot position.
Specifically, the server rack may receive a second feedback signal sent by a part of the passive identification reader; the second feedback signal may be a signal with empty content, and the passive identification reader that sends the signal is characterized by not reading any information, thereby indicating that no server is placed in the first target slot where the passive identification reader is located. In this way, the server rack can determine, via the second feedback signal, that no server is located in the first target slot of the rack. Further, the server rack generates a notification message based on the received second feedback signal, wherein the notification message includes the number information of the first target slot where the server is not placed. The server rack sends the notification message to the management equipment, so that the management equipment automatically updates the generated machine room topology image based on the notification message, and the maintenance difficulty of machine room server management is reduced.
The information processing method provided by the embodiment of the invention can determine the position of the server rack through the strength of the received wireless signal; positioning a server inserted into a server rack through a received signal sent by a passive identification reader; and the position of the server rack and the relative position information of the server can still be automatically positioned after the rack position is adjusted or the server is moved, so that the difficulty in managing and maintaining the server in the machine room is reduced, and the labor cost is also reduced.
