Detailed Description
In order to clearly illustrate the technical features of the present solution, the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the following detailed description and the accompanying drawings. The following disclosure provides many different embodiments, or examples, for implementing different structures of the invention. In order to simplify the present disclosure, components and arrangements of specific examples are described below. Furthermore, the present invention may repeat reference numerals and/or letters in the various examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself dictate a relationship between the various embodiments and/or configurations discussed. It should be noted that the components illustrated in the figures are not necessarily drawn to scale. Descriptions of well-known components and processing techniques and processes are omitted so as to not unnecessarily obscure the present invention.
For the monitoring and management functions of the server, the firmware such as BMC/BIOS/CPLD is perfected step by continuously updating the version, and the accuracy, the comprehensiveness and the applicability are greatly improved. The research and development process of a server is not a voice-playing and a kick-on, and here, research and development and testing personnel are required to input a great deal of manpower and time for repeated test and verification.
From discovering problems to analyzing problems to solving problems, the firmware may have updated multiple versions in between; the BUG defect is verified by looking ahead and looking back, which is to confirm the found problem under the original firmware version, and looking back, which is to verify whether the problem is solved under the latest version, namely, the problem is "reappearance" and "disappearance".
When a tester finds a problem, the current testing environment, namely hardware configuration and software version, needs to be recorded, and the current version number of the BIOS/BMC/CPLD is included; however, the solution to the problem cannot be introduced immediately, and the problem may not be properly handled until several versions have passed; from the test point of view, the problem needs to be solved in a 'look-ahead' way, and whether the 'look-after' is successful can be judged only when the problem is repeated. This requires the tester to restore the test environment to the environment where the problem occurred, and a degraded refresh of the software version is one of particular importance.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for reproducing a server BUG based on a firmware version, the method including the steps of:
s1, when a server runs, if BUG appears, recording the current firmware version of the server and labeling the problem label of the current BUG;
s2, when the BUG reproduction is carried out, based on the problem label, locally acquiring a firmware version corresponding to the current BUG occurrence from the BMC, and verifying the BUG.
In step S1, the firmware includes BIOS firmware, BMC firmware, and CPLD firmware. When the BUG occurs on the server, the BIOS firmware, BMC firmware and CPLD firmware are all recorded.
The problem tag can accurately record specific phenomena occurring in the BUG, such as "the server is down for 12 hours under the BIOS setup".
In step S2, the local obtaining, from the BMC, the firmware version corresponding to the current BUG occurrence, and the specific process of verifying the BUG is:
based on the problem tag, acquiring a corresponding firmware version;
comparing whether the current firmware version of the server is consistent with the corresponding firmware version;
if so, verifying the BUG by using the current firmware version;
and if the firmware versions are inconsistent, refreshing the firmware to the corresponding firmware versions, and verifying the BUG.
The reason for the above verification of the BUG is that: with the progress of projects, the firmware version of the server is also updated iteratively, after a plurality of versions, firmware of a certain version solves the BUG, and a tester needs to rollback the firmware version to find the initial version of the BUG for BUG reproduction so as to verify whether the new version solves the BUG.
And refreshing the firmware to the corresponding firmware version by adopting a firmware version one-key rollback operation, and refreshing the firmware version with one key, thereby realizing high automation degree and saving time and labor.
In one implementation manner of the method embodiment of the present invention, before the occurrence of the BUG, the method further includes the steps of:
when the server issues the new version firmware, the firmware is uploaded and refreshed through the BMC web, and the corresponding firmware file is stored to the BMC local.
The BMC is locally stored in the BMC.
In the implementation mode, various firmware version information used by the server is stored locally, and when the firmware version information is copied, the corresponding firmware file can be obtained only by locating the corresponding firmware version based on the problem label, so that the operation efficiency is improved, and the accuracy of the obtained firmware file is ensured.
As shown in fig. 2, the embodiment of the invention further provides a system based on the firmware version reproduction server BUG, which comprises an information collecting module 1, a BUG reproduction module 2 and a storage module 3.
The information collection module 1 is used for recording the current firmware version of the server and labeling the problem label of the current BUG when the BUG appears in the operation of the server; the BUG reproduction module 2 is used for locally acquiring a firmware version corresponding to the current BUG occurrence from the BMC based on the problem tag when the BUG reproduction is carried out, and verifying the BUG.
The firmware includes BIOS firmware, BMC firmware and CPLD firmware. When the server presents the BUG, the information collection module 1 records the BIOS firmware, the BMC firmware and the CPLD firmware.
The problem label can accurately record specific phenomena of BUG, such as "the server is down for 12 hours under BIOS setup".
And when the server issues the new version firmware, the storage module 3 stores the corresponding firmware file to the BMC.
The memory module 3 is disposed in the BMC.
The storage module 3 locally stores various firmware version information used by the server, and when the firmware version information is copied, the corresponding firmware file can be obtained only by locating the corresponding firmware version based on the problem label, so that the operation efficiency is improved, and the accuracy of the obtained firmware file is ensured.
The but reproduction module 2 comprises a firmware acquisition unit 21, a comparison unit 22, a first processing unit 23 and a second processing unit 24.
The firmware obtaining unit 21 obtains a corresponding firmware version based on the problem tag; the comparing unit 22 is configured to compare whether the current firmware version of the server is consistent with the corresponding firmware version; the first processing unit 23 verifies the BUG with the current firmware version when the two agree; when the two are inconsistent, the second processing unit 24 refreshes the firmware to the corresponding firmware version, and verifies the BUG.
The embodiment of the invention also provides a computer storage medium, wherein the computer storage medium stores computer instructions, and the computer instructions, when running on the system, cause the system to execute the steps of the method.
While the foregoing description of the embodiments of the present invention has been presented in conjunction with the drawings, it should be understood that it is not intended to limit the scope of the invention, but rather, it is intended to cover all modifications or variations within the scope of the invention as defined by the claims of the present invention.
