Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.
The operating system recovery method provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to the application environment shown in fig. 1. Where the proxy server 102 communicates with the virtualization server 104 and the backup server 106 over a network. The proxy server 102 sends a virtual machine creation request to the virtualization server 104 in response to the source host 108 satisfying the operating system recovery condition; the virtual machine creation request is used to instruct the virtualization server 104 to create a virtual machine corresponding to the source host; the proxy server 102 sends a virtual disk mount request to the virtualization server 104 when the virtual machine is created; the virtual disk mount request is used to instruct the virtualization server 104 to mount a virtual disk file corresponding to the virtual machine onto the file system of the proxy server 102; the proxy server 102 mounts the virtual disk file as a simulation block device of the file system, and performs an operating system reconstruction operation on the simulation block device according to an operating system backup uploaded to the backup server 106 by the source host 108 in advance; when the os rebuilding operation is completed, the proxy server 102 unloads the analog block device, disconnects the remote mount of the virtual disk file, and sends a virtual machine boot request to the virtualization server 104, so as to start the virtual machine running the os of the active host 108. The proxy server 102, the virtualization server 104 and the backup server 106 may each be implemented as a stand-alone server or as a server cluster of multiple servers.
In one embodiment, as shown in fig. 2, an operating system recovery method is provided, which is described by taking the application of the method to the proxy server 102 in fig. 1 as an example, and includes the following steps:
step S202, responding to the source host meeting the recovery condition of the operating system, and sending a virtual machine creation request to a virtualization server.
The virtual machine creating request is used for instructing the virtualization server to create the virtual machine corresponding to the source host.
Wherein, the source host may refer to a computer device that needs to be protected.
The os recovery condition may refer to a trigger condition that needs to perform os recovery on the source host. For example, the operating system recovery condition may refer to the source host failing to boot due to a hardware failure.
In the specific implementation, when the source host fails to start due to hardware failure, the task of restoring the operating system backup of the source host to the virtualization server is completed by the proxy server; in particular, the proxy server may send a virtual machine creation request to the virtualization server for receipt by the virtualization server.
After the virtualization server receives the virtual machine creation request, the virtualization server may respond to the virtual machine creation request and create a virtual machine corresponding to the source host by using virtualization software (e.g., VMware ESXi) according to hardware configuration information of the virtual machine creation request.
The hardware configuration information (the number of hard disks, the capacity, the number of CPU cores, the size of the memory, the type of the motherboard firmware, etc.) is specified by a user (generally, an operation and maintenance worker) on a graphical interface, and generally requires that the number of the disks of the newly-built virtual machine is consistent with that of the physical source host.
In practical application, virtualization software may create multiple virtual machines, each disk of a virtual machine corresponds to one virtual disk file (such as VMDK, VHD) on a storage device, and the read-write operation of an operating system on a virtual machine to a disk is converted into an operation to a virtual disk file by a virtualization layer on a bottom layer.
In practical applications, the virtualization server is connected to a Storage device, and the Storage device may be a SAN (Storage Area Network), an iSCSI SAN (Internet Small Computer System Interface SAN), a hard disk array, or the like. The storage device stores a virtual disk file corresponding to the virtual machine.
Step S204, sending a virtual disk mounting request to a virtualization server under the condition that the virtual machine is established; the virtual disk mount request is used for instructing the virtualization server to mount the virtual disk file corresponding to the virtual machine on the file system of the proxy server.
In a specific implementation, when the virtual machine is created, the proxy server may further assign the operating system of the source host to the virtual disk file because the virtual disk file corresponding to the virtual machine is a blank file at this time. Specifically, the proxy server may send a virtual disk mount request to the virtualization server. After the virtualization server receives the virtual disk mount request, the virtualization server may mount the virtual disk file corresponding to the virtual machine to the file system of the proxy server according to the virtual disk mount request.
Step S206, mounting the virtual disk file as a simulation block device of the file system, and implementing an operating system reconstruction operation on the simulation block device according to an operating system backup uploaded by the source host in advance.
In specific implementation, after the virtualization server mounts the virtual disk file corresponding to the virtual machine onto the file system of the proxy server, the proxy server mounts the virtual disk file (e.g., vmdk file) as a loop device (i.e., an analog block device). The proxy server then reads information from the backup server such as the partitions, file systems, boot sectors, etc. of each disk on the source host (which are all stored on the backup server by the source host when backing up the operating system). And reconstructing the disk partition, the guide record, the file system, the LVM, the directory and the file of the source host on the loop device according to the information of the partition, the file system, the guide sector and the like of each disk, which is backed up by the source host in advance, so as to complete the operation system reconstruction operation on the simulation block device.
Step S208, when the reconstruction operation of the operating system is finished, the simulation block device is unloaded, the remote mounting of the virtual disk file is disconnected, and a virtual machine starting request is sent to the virtualization server, so that the virtual machine of the operating system of the active host is started.
In a specific implementation, after the proxy server completes execution of the operation system rebuilding operation performed on the simulation block device, the proxy server unloads the loop device (i.e., the simulation block device), removes the mounting of the vmdk file on the file system of the proxy server, and then sends a starting request for the virtual machine to the virtualization server to start the virtual machine running the operation system of the active host.
To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, fig. 3 also provides a running environment diagram of an operating system recovery method; the agent host 2 (agent server ) and the host 1 (source host ), the backup server and the virtualization platform server (virtualization server) are all under the same local area network; wherein host 1 may represent a computer to be protected; when the host 1 has a hardware failure and cannot be started, the task of restoring the operating system backup of the host 1 to the virtualization platform is completed by the proxy host 2. In practical applications, the host 1 may have a plurality of hosts. The backup server stores the backup of the operating system of the host 1 and is managed by a backup management program; the operating system backup is uploaded to the backup server by the agent on the host 1 when performing the backup.
The virtualization server is installed with virtualization software (the virtualization layer in fig. one may refer to the virtualization software, and the virtualization software may run directly on a bare computer, such as VMware ESXi), the virtualization software may create multiple virtual machines, each disk of a virtual machine corresponds to one virtual disk file (such as VMDK, VHD) on the storage device, and the read-write operation of an operating system on the virtual machine on the disk is converted into an operation on the virtual disk file by the virtualization layer on the bottom layer. In practice, one virtual machine may have multiple virtual disks.
In the operating system recovery method, a virtual machine creation request is sent to the virtualization server in response to the source host meeting the operating system recovery condition, so as to instruct the virtualization server to create a virtual machine corresponding to the source host; sending a virtual disk mounting request to a virtualization server under the condition that the virtual machine is created, so as to instruct the virtualization server to mount a virtual disk file corresponding to the virtual machine onto a file system of a proxy server; mounting the virtual disk file as a simulation block device of a file system, implementing operating system reconstruction operation on the simulation block device according to operating system backup uploaded by a source host in advance, unloading the simulation block device and sending a virtual machine starting request to a virtualization server under the condition that the operating system reconstruction operation is executed completely so as to start a virtual machine of an operating system running the source host; therefore, the virtual machine running with the backup operating system of the source host can be started in the virtual machine server timely and quickly under the condition that the source host meets the operating system recovery condition, the operating system of the source host is quickly and effectively automatically recovered in a mode of remotely accessing the virtual machine, the virtual machine continues to provide the service provided by the source host, the condition that the service provided by the host is offline for a long time is avoided, the negative influence caused by the damage of the source host is effectively reduced, and the stability of the service provided by the source host is effectively improved.
In another embodiment, the method further comprises: sending a system backup reading request to a backup server; the system backup reading request carries a backup identifier corresponding to the active host; the system backup reading request is used for indicating the backup server to return a system backup file corresponding to the backup identifier; and receiving the system backup file corresponding to the backup identifier, and taking the system backup file corresponding to the backup identifier as an operating system backup.
In a specific implementation, in the process of obtaining the operating system backup of the source host by the proxy server, the proxy server may send a system backup reading request to the backup server; the system backup reading request carries a backup identifier corresponding to the active host; after receiving the system backup reading request, the backup server queries a system backup file corresponding to the backup identifier and sends the system backup file corresponding to the backup identifier to the proxy server. And after receiving the system backup file corresponding to the backup identifier, the proxy server takes the system backup file corresponding to the backup identifier as an operating system backup. Specifically, the proxy server may determine, based on the operating system backup, the partition, file system, boot sector, etc. information for each disk on the source host (which is stored on the backup server by the source host when backing up the operating system). And according to the information of partitions, file systems, boot sectors and the like of each disk backed up in advance by the source host, reconstructing the disk partitions, boot records, file systems, LVMs, directories and files of the source host on the loop device to complete the operation system reconstruction operation of the simulation block device.
In another embodiment, the performing an os rebuilding operation on the simulated block device according to an os backup uploaded by the source host in advance includes: determining operating system configuration information corresponding to a source host according to the operating system backup; and according to the operating system configuration information, performing operating system reconstruction operation on the simulation block equipment.
The operating system configuration information includes at least one of system partition information, file system information, boot sector information, directory information, or file information.
In a specific implementation, the proxy server may read the os backup to determine system partition information, file system information, boot sector information, directory information, or file information of the source host. And reconstructing the disk partition, the boot record, the file system, the LVM, the directory and the file of the source host on the loop device according to the system partition information, the file system information, the boot sector information, the directory information or the file information so as to complete the operation system reconstruction operation of the simulation block device.
According to the technical scheme of the embodiment, the system backup reading request carrying the backup identifier corresponding to the source host is sent to the backup server to indicate the backup server to return the system backup file corresponding to the backup identifier, and the received system backup file corresponding to the backup identifier is used as the operating system backup, so that the operating system backup for subsequently restoring the operating system of the source host can be accurately and quickly determined.
To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, fig. 4 provides a flow diagram of an operating system recovery method; the proxy server sends a virtual machine creation request to the virtualization platform server, and the virtualization platform server creates a virtual machine according to hardware configuration information in the virtual machine creation request, wherein the hardware configuration information includes the number of hard disks, capacity, the number of cores of a CPU, the size of a memory, the type of firmware of a mainboard, and the like. After the virtualization platform server successfully creates the virtual machine, the proxy server will request the virtualization platform server to mount the vmdk file of the virtual machine to the file system of the proxy server, and then the proxy server will mount the vmdk file as a loop device. Then, the recovery module of the proxy server reads the partition and file system of each disk on the source host, the boot sector, etc. information from the backup server. And reconstructing the disk partition, the guide record, the file system, the LVM, the directory and the file of the source host on the loop device according to the partition, the file system, the guide sector and other information of each disk on the source host. And finally, the recovery module of the proxy server unloads the loop equipment, relieves the mounting of the vmdk file on the file system of the proxy host, and then sends a starting request to the virtual machine to the virtualization platform so as to start the virtual machine running the operating system of the active host.
In another embodiment, in the case that the logical volume function is not enabled by the source host, performing an operating system rebuild operation on the emulated block device according to the operating system configuration information includes: according to the system partition information and the file system information, file system reconstruction operation is carried out on the simulation block device; and importing the directory information and the file information into the file system of each partition, and installing a boot code in the target sector to perform an operating system reconstruction operation on the simulation block device.
In a specific implementation, in a case where the Logical Volume function is not enabled by the source host (i.e., the source host does not use a LVM (Logical Volume Manager)), for the understanding of those skilled in the art, please refer to fig. 5, where fig. 5 exemplarily provides a step diagram of operating system rebuilding; because the loop device is empty, a recovery module of the proxy server acquires partition Table information (GPT (GUID partition Table) or MBR [3] partition Table) of a source host disk from the backup server; and then creating the same partition table at the beginning part of the loop device, wherein the recovery module of the proxy server can automatically adjust the size of each partition of the loop device because the capacity of the loop device can be larger or smaller than that of a disk of a corresponding source host.
Then, since the backup set on the backup server has the file system type of each partition of the source host recorded therein, after the partition creation is completed, the restore module of the proxy server may create a file system (such as ext4, fat32, xfs, etc.) on each partition, and the file system type of each partition is consistent with that on the source host. The restore module reads the partition backups of the source host from the backup server (the hierarchical structure of the directories and the file locations in the backup are consistent with those in the source host), and then releases the backup on the corresponding partitions. At present, most mainboards are equipped with Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) Firmware to guide the starting of an operating system, and the UEFI Firmware can not only identify equipment, but also directly identify a general packet radio service (GPT) partition table and a file allocation table (FAT 32) file system. When an operating System is installed on such a motherboard's machine, the operating System installer places the boot code that loads the operating System kernel on a separate ESP (EFI System Partition) Partition. This UEFI firmware also supports legacy bios mode to accommodate older operating system installations that install boot code on the first sector of the boot disk (also called the boot sector).
If the motherboard of the source host boots the operating system in legacy mode, the created virtual machine also boots the operating system in legacy BIOS firmware, and the recovery module installs boot code on the boot sector when recovering the operating system, otherwise the recovery module skips this step.
In another embodiment, in the case that the source host enables the logical volume function, performing an operating system rebuilding operation on the emulated block device according to the operating system configuration information includes: carrying out logical volume reconstruction operation on the simulation block equipment to obtain a target logical volume; according to the system partition information and the file system information, file system reconstruction operation is carried out on the target logic volume; and importing the directory information and the file information into a file system, and installing a boot code in the target sector to implement an operating system rebuilding operation on the simulation block device.
In a specific implementation, in a case that the source host enables the Logical Volume function (i.e. the source host uses an LVM (Logical Volume Manager)), for understanding by those skilled in the art, please refer to fig. 6, where fig. 6 exemplarily provides another step diagram for operating system rebuilding; when the recovery module of the proxy server rebuilds the LVM on the proxy host, if there is a conflict between the LVM volume group name of the proxy host and the LVM volume group name of the source host, the recovery module of the proxy server may modify the volume group of the proxy host into a temporary name, and change the temporary name to the original name after the recovery is completed. Specifically, the recovery module first rebuilds the partitions that are not used by the LVM before beginning to recover the LVM. The source host exports the configuration file of the LVM during backup and stores the configuration file on the backup server, so the recovery module reads the configuration file from the backup server and reconstructs the LVM according to the configuration file. After the LVM (i.e. the target logical volume) is reconstructed, the logical volume may be used by a common volume, the metadata (information such as a file system type and a mount point) of each logical volume is already recorded on the backup server during backup, and the recovery module performs a file system reconstruction operation on the target logical volume according to the information such as the file system type and the mount point; and importing the directory information and the file information into each partition in the file system, and installing a boot code in the target sector to implement operating system rebuilding operation on the simulation block device.
In another embodiment, as shown in fig. 7, an operating system recovery method is provided, which is described by taking the application of the method to the virtualization server 104 in fig. 1 as an example, and includes the following steps:
step S702, in response to a virtual machine creation request sent by a proxy server, creating a virtual machine corresponding to a source host; the source host is a host that satisfies the operating system recovery condition.
Step S704, responding to the virtual disk mounting request sent by the proxy server, and mounting the virtual disk file corresponding to the virtual machine on a file system of the proxy server; the proxy server is used for mounting the virtual disk file as a simulation block device of the file system, and implementing operating system reconstruction operation on the simulation block device according to an operating system backup uploaded by the source host in advance.
Step S706, in response to the virtual machine startup request sent by the proxy server, starts up the virtual machine running the operating system of the active host.
It should be noted that, for the specific limitations of the above steps, reference may be made to the above specific limitations of an operating system recovery method, which is not described herein again.
To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art, FIG. 8 also illustratively provides a flow chart of another operating system recovery method; the proxy server requests the virtualization platform to create a virtual machine; then, the virtualization platform server creates a virtual machine according to the hardware configuration information in the virtual machine creation request, wherein the hardware configuration information includes the number of hard disks, the capacity, the number of CPU cores, the size of the memory, the type of the motherboard firmware, and the like. After the virtualization platform server successfully creates the virtual machine, the proxy server will request the virtualization platform server to mount the vmdk file of the virtual machine to the file system of the proxy server, and then the proxy server will mount the vmdk file as a loop device. The recovery module of the proxy server then reads the partition and file system, boot sector, etc. information for each disk on the source host from the backup server. And reconstructing the disk partition, the boot record, the file system, the LVM, the directory and the file of the source host on the loop device according to the partition, the file system, the boot sector and other information of each disk on the source host.
And finally, the recovery module of the proxy server unloads the loop device, relieves the mounting of the vmdk file on the file system of the proxy host, and then sends a starting request for the virtual machine to the virtualization platform so as to start the virtual machine running the operating system of the active host.
