step S301: setting a switching device, and connecting an in-place signal end of the server equipment to the ground through the switching device;
step S302: in response to debugging the server, closing the switching device to pull the in-place signal low, simulating the server device being in place.
In some embodiments, debugging the server includes enabling, by the CPLD, debugging power-up and power-down timing of the server device. In the process of testing the return board of the server, the power supply of the server and the power-on time sequence of the equipment need to be debugged, and the power-on and power-off time sequence control in the server is realized through a CPLD.
In some embodiments, the providing a switching device through which the on-bit signal terminal of the server device is connected to ground includes: one end of the switch device is connected with an on-position signal end of the equipment slot, and the other end of the switch device is grounded, wherein the on-position signal end is connected to a power supply through a pull-up resistor. In some embodiments, the switching device is a dip switch. As shown in fig. 4, by adding a dial switch, the server CPU and other devices are connected to the ground through the dial switch. When the power supply of the power supply and the equipment are debugged, the corresponding dial switch is dialed to be connected to the ground, the on-site signal is pulled down, and the equipment is simulated to be on site.
As shown in fig. 5, when the power-on sequence of the server device is controlled by the CPLD, after the CPLD receives the motherboard 3V3_ power _ on signal and the PRESENT bit signal, the CPLD sends a MAIN _ PWREN signal to control the device to power on. When the device is not in place, the power-on condition cannot be met, and the CPLD does not send the MAIN _ PWREN signal. By using the method of the invention, the CPLD power-on time sequence condition is satisfied, and a CPU or an inserted device is not required to be installed, thereby saving a large amount of time and avoiding resource waste.
In some embodiments, the same function may be achieved by pulling the in-place signal low through a jumper cap or other suitable device of the present invention.
Where technically feasible, the technical features listed above for the different embodiments may be combined with each other or changed, added, omitted, etc. to form further embodiments within the scope of the invention.
It can be seen from the foregoing embodiments that, in the in-place signal processing method for server debugging according to the embodiments of the present invention, the dial switch is added, and the in-place signals of the server CPU and the device are connected to the ground through the dial switch, so that the power-on time sequence condition of the CPLD is satisfied, and the CPU does not need to be installed or the device does not need to be inserted to build different server connection topologies, thereby saving a lot of time and avoiding resource waste.
In view of the above object, another aspect of the embodiments of the present invention provides an in-place signal processing apparatus during server debugging, including: the device comprises a CPLD, a device slot and a switch device, wherein the CPLD is connected to an on-site signal end of the device slot; one end of the switch device is connected with the in-place signal end of the equipment slot, the other end of the switch device is grounded, and the switch device is closed to pull down the in-place signal when the server is debugged, so that the CPLD is simulated that the server equipment is in place.
In some embodiments, the in-place signal terminal of the device socket is connected to a power supply through a pull-up resistor.
In some embodiments, when debugging the power-up and power-down timing of the server device is realized through the CPLD, the switching device is closed to pull down the presence signal, simulating that the server device is in place.
In some embodiments, the switching device is a dip switch.

The Present2 connection CPLD of Slot is for monitoring the device presence and controlling the power-on timing, the Present2 connection 9555 is for BMC monitoring the device presence, and the Present2 connection 3V3_ STBY is through the pull-up resistor to provide the default status. When the Device is inserted into the Slot, corresponding to Present1 in the Slot connecting Present2 to ground, Present2 is pulled low, informing the CPLD and BMC Device that they are in place. However, in this embodiment, the Present2 in Slot is also connected to ground through the dip switch, so that even if the Device is not inserted into Slot, pulling down the Present2 can still be achieved by closing the dip switch, signaling the CPLD that the Device is in place.
