These drawings and written description are not intended to limit the scope of the inventive concepts in any manner, but rather to illustrate the inventive concepts to those skilled in the art by reference to specific embodiments.
Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present application, as detailed in the appended claims.
The terms referred to in this application are explained first:
the BMC monitors the temperature, voltage, fan, power supply and the like of the system and performs corresponding adjustment work, and the operation object is system hardware so as to ensure that the system is in a healthy state. The server cluster generally uses a BMC instruction to perform large-scale unattended operation, including remote management, monitoring, installation, restart, and the like of the server. The BMC is an independent system, does not depend on other hardware (such as a CPU, a memory and the like) on the system, does not depend on a BIOS and the like, and can interact with the BIOS, so that a better platform management effect can be achieved.
The BIOS may provide configuration items including a boot interface operating mode configuration, a USB configuration, a hard disk operating mode configuration, an interface configuration, a power operating mode configuration, and an administrator password configuration for a computer such as a server. In practical applications, after the BIOS configuration is manually modified or is erroneously operated, some function of the server may be affected, and even the device in the server may not be normally used. In the process of checking the BIOS configuration item by operation and maintenance personnel, the checking steps are complicated, and the checking efficiency is low.
Aiming at the problem of low troubleshooting efficiency in the related technology, the application provides an information processing method, an information processing device, a server and a storage medium, and BIOS configuration change is alarmed out of band through BMC. Specifically, the BIOS configuration information is monitored through the BMC, when the BIOS configuration changes, the BMC records the change of the BIOS configuration in time, operation and maintenance personnel can conveniently judge and analyze subsequent abnormal working conditions, and abnormity can be rapidly checked.
Fig. 1 is an exemplary diagram of an application scenario of an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in fig. 1, after the user modifies the BIOS configuration information of the server, the BIOS transmits the modified BIOS configuration information (i.e., "first BIOS configuration information") to the BMC, and the BMC determines the changed configuration item by comparing the modified BIOS configuration information (where the unmodified BIOS configuration information is "second BIOS configuration information") with the modified BIOS configuration information (and records the change in the log, thereby facilitating subsequent query. The BIOS and the BMC can perform information interaction, and can play a better role in platform management.
Next, the information processing method will be described in detail with reference to specific embodiments.
Fig. 2 is a schematic flowchart of an information processing method according to an embodiment of the present application. It should be understood that, the embodiment of the present application provides an information processing method, and an execution subject of the embodiment of the present application may be the BMC in fig. 1. As shown in fig. 2, the information processing method includes:
s11, in response to receiving the first BIOS configuration information from the BIOS, obtaining the stored second BIOS configuration information.
Optionally, the first BIOS configuration information may be sent during a boot process of the server, or the first BIOS configuration information from the BIOS may be sent with a modification of the BIOS configuration information of the server.
In this step, after receiving the first BIOS configuration information, the BMC obtains the stored second BIOS configuration information in response to the first BIOS configuration information, so as to compare the first BIOS configuration information with the second BIOS configuration information.
The second BIOS configuration information may be BIOS configuration information stored last time by the BMC. For example, the information processing method provided in the embodiment of the present application may further include: the BMC stores the first BIOS configuration information in response to receiving the first BIOS configuration information from the BIOS. That is, the BMC stores the BIOS configuration information received each time.
Alternatively, the BMC may only store the BIOS configuration information when the server is first started (including the first start after factory reset is restored), so that after receiving the first BIOS configuration information from the BIOS, the BMC may obtain the second BIOS configuration information as the BIOS configuration information when the server is first started.
In some embodiments, the first BIOS configuration information may be transmitted between the BMC and the BIOS in the form of a BIOS configuration file, wherein the BIOS configuration file contains the first BIOS configuration information. Similarly, the second BIOS configuration information may be stored in the form of a BIOS configuration file. It is understood that the BMC may locally save the BIOS configuration information in the form of a BIOS configuration file.
S12, determining whether there is a difference between the first BIOS configuration information and the second BIOS configuration information.
In this step, the BMC analyzes and compares the stored second BIOS configuration information with the first BIOS configuration information to determine whether there is a difference between the first BIOS configuration information and the second BIOS configuration information. If there is a difference, go to step S13; if there is no difference, the flow ends.
And S13, determining the BIOS configuration change item description corresponding to the difference.
The BIOS configuration change item description is the description corresponding to the changed or changed configuration item. Optionally, the first BIOS configuration information and the second BIOS configuration information both include descriptions corresponding to the configuration items, and at this time, the difference between the first BIOS configuration information and the second BIOS configuration information is determined by comparing the two information, so as to determine the descriptions of the BIOS configuration change items corresponding to the difference.
Further, determining the BIOS configuration change item description corresponding to the difference may include: and analyzing the BIOS configuration change item description corresponding to the difference through the BIOS configuration item table. The BIOS configuration item table may also be referred to as a "BIOS setting table," which includes configuration items set by the BIOS and value requirements corresponding to the configuration items, such as a value range or a value type.
S14, recording the BIOS configuration change item description and the changed value in the log.
For example, the log may be specifically a BMC audit log, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.
By this step, the BIOS configuration change item description and the changed value of the difference between the first BIOS configuration information and the second BIOS configuration information are recorded in the log. Optionally, the changed value may include a value of the BIOS configuration change item description in the first BIOS configuration information and the second BIOS configuration information, respectively.
After the description of the BIOS configuration change item and the changed value are recorded in the log, the query service of the description of the BIOS configuration change item and the changed value can be provided.
In the embodiment of the application, the BMC is used for responding to the received first BIOS configuration information from the BIOS, acquiring the stored second BIOS configuration information, determining whether the first BIOS configuration information is different from the second BIOS configuration information, if so, determining the description of the BIOS configuration change item corresponding to the difference, and recording the description of the BIOS configuration change item and the changed value in the log. Therefore, the description of the BIOS configuration change item and the changed value can be obtained through the query log, and therefore when the server is subjected to abnormal troubleshooting, the abnormal positioning and abnormal troubleshooting efficiency of operation and maintenance personnel is effectively improved.
In addition, the BIOS configuration change item description and the changed value are obtained by inquiring the log, the problem cause can be found without the intervention of personnel in the BIOS professional field, and the dependence on the professional field is reduced.
On the basis of the foregoing embodiment, the information processing method according to the embodiment of the present application may further include: when an inquiry instruction of BIOS configuration change is received, inquiring the relevant information of the BIOS configuration change in a log, wherein the relevant information can comprise the description of the BIOS configuration change item, the changed value and the like; and sending the relevant information to the sender of the query instruction so that the sender displays the relevant information to the user. Illustratively, through the BMC Web, a user may query the audit log for specific information of the BIOS configuration change. For example, 2022/3/2318: 00BIOS Configuration Changed Turbo Mode Changed from < Enabled > to < Disabled >.
According to the embodiment of the application, the operation and maintenance personnel related logs are provided in an intuitive mode through the visual BIOS configuration change item description and the change value, the operation and maintenance personnel can conveniently judge and analyze the subsequent abnormal working conditions, and the abnormality can be more intuitively and quickly checked.
Further, the BIOS and the BMC interact through protocols such as IPMI, Redfish or USB and the like. For example, the BIOS transmits the first BIOS configuration information to the BMC via IPMI, Redfish, USB, or the like. An independent channel of gateway data is established between the BIOS and the BMC, and network management data and service data are separated, so that the efficiency and reliability of network management can be improved, and the security of the network management data can be improved.
For example, referring to fig. 3, the information processing method according to the embodiment of the present application may specifically include:
s31, the system is powered on, and the BIOS transmits the first BIOS configuration information to the BMC.
It is understood that the first BIOS configuration information is also the current BIOS configuration information.
Correspondingly, the BMC receives the first BIOS configuration information.
S32, in response to the first BIOS configuration information, the BMC reads the second BIOS configuration information.
Illustratively, the second BIOS configuration information is last saved BIOS configuration information.
If the BMC does not read the second BIOS configuration information, executing step S33; if the BMC reads the second BIOS configuration information, go to step S34.
S33, the BMC stores the first BIOS configuration information.
For example, the BMC may locally save the first BIOS configuration information. After that, the flow ends.
S34, the BMC determines whether the first BIOS configuration information is different from the second BIOS configuration information.
Specifically, the BMC analyzes and compares the first BIOS configuration information and the second BIOS configuration information to determine whether there is a difference between the first BIOS configuration information and the second BIOS configuration information. If there is a difference, go to step S35; if there is no difference, the flow ends.
S35, the BMC parses the BIOS configuration change item description corresponding to the difference.
For example, the BMC parses the BIOS configuration change description corresponding to the difference based on the BIOS configuration entry table.
S36, the BMC records the BIOS configuration change item description and the changed value into a BMC audit log.
Thereafter, the BMC performs step S33.
By the embodiment of the application, when the BIOS configuration information is changed or the server is started, the current BIOS configuration information is transmitted to the BMC through the BIOS, the BMC compares the current BIOS configuration information with the stored previous BIOS configuration information to determine whether the difference exists between the current BIOS configuration information and the stored previous BIOS configuration information, determines the description of the BIOS configuration change item corresponding to the difference when the difference exists, and records the description of the BIOS configuration change item and the changed value in a log, so that the changed BIOS configuration item and the changed value can be obtained through inquiring the log, the changed BIOS configuration item and the changed value can be found without the intervention of professionals in the field of BIOS professionals, the possible abnormity/fault can be predicted in advance through inquiring, the reason of abnormity or fault caused by inquiring positioning can be used, the dependence on the professional field is reduced, and the abnormity positioning/troubleshooting efficiency of operation and maintenance personnel is improved, effectively shortening the positioning/checking period.
