本発明は、サーバコンピュータ室などの電算機室に代表されるいわゆるシステム室の各設備が正常に動作しているか否かを確認試験できるシステム室の設備正常動作確認試験システムに関するものである。
The present invention relates to an equipment normal operation confirmation test system for a system room capable of confirming whether or not each equipment of a so-called system room typified by a computer room such as a server computer room is operating normally.

一般に、例えばサーバコンピュータなどの電子機器が所定のラックに装着され、その電算機ラックが複数台設置されたシステム室(電算機室)は、きわめて重要な箇所、拠点となり、ソフト面及びハード面の双方での充分なセキュリティが求められ、またハード面においては充分な正常稼働性と耐久性のある正常稼働管理が求められる。   Generally, for example, a system room (computer room) in which electronic equipment such as a server computer is mounted in a predetermined rack and a plurality of computer racks are installed becomes a very important place, a base, and a software side and a hardware side. Sufficient security is required on both sides, and in terms of hardware, sufficient normal operation and durable normal operation management are required.

例えば、当該電算機室の各電算機に商用電力などの電源が所定の電圧をもって正常に継続して供給されるか否か、また、電源から送出された電力がいわゆる分電盤や配電盤により正常に送出制御されているか否か、さらに使用されている送出ケーブルが正常に動作しているか否か、電算機室の空調設備は適正に機能しているか否かなどがハード面の正常稼働の動作としてチェックされなければならない。   For example, whether or not a power source such as commercial power is normally and continuously supplied to each computer in the computer room at a predetermined voltage, and whether the power transmitted from the power source is normal by a so-called distribution board or switchboard. Is the normal operation of the hardware, such as whether or not it is controlled to send, whether the used sending cable is operating normally, and whether the air conditioning equipment in the computer room is functioning properly. Must be checked as.

そして、前述した各チェック試験は、電算機室内において、複数の電算機が所定のラックに装着された状態で、かつ実際に稼働している状態で行うことが最も好ましい。   Then, it is most preferable to perform each of the above-described check tests in a computer room with a plurality of computers mounted in a predetermined rack and in an actually operating state.

しかしながら、前述の複数の電算機が所定のラックにおいて所定の箇所にあらかじめ装着された状態で、かつ実際に複数の電算機が稼働している状態で前述のチェック試験を行うことは難しく、通常は、前記電算機室において使用される電算機と同様な負荷を有する負荷抵抗試験装置を持ち込み、該負荷抵抗試験装置を前記電算機と同様の電気使用量を有する数量分用意し、これらを電算機室内に持ち込み、試験を行っていた。   However, it is difficult to perform the above-mentioned check test in a state where the above-mentioned plurality of computers are pre-installed in a predetermined location in a predetermined rack, and in a state where the plurality of computers are actually operating, and normally, Bringing in a load resistance test device having a load similar to that of a computer used in the computer room, preparing the load resistance test device in a quantity having the same amount of electricity used as the computer, and computing these. He brought it to the room and was testing it.

しかもその試験は、停電などで商用電源が使用不可能になったとき、非常用の発電機が正常に作動するか否かのみの試験であり、前述した試験が全て行えるものではなかった。   Moreover, the test is only a test of whether or not the emergency generator operates normally when the commercial power supply becomes unusable due to a power failure or the like, and all the above-described tests cannot be performed.

また、上記の負荷試験においても、前記複数のラック内に装着してあった、あるいは装着予定の電算機に替えて負荷抵抗試験装置を装着し、現実の使用に近い状態で負荷試験を行うものではなかった。
Also in the above load test, a load resistance test device is installed in place of the computer that has been or will be installed in the plurality of racks, and the load test is performed in a state close to actual use. Was not.

You can check whether it is operating, whether the sending cable is functioning normally, whether the air conditioning equipment in the computer room is functioning properly, etc. This computer can be used in a state where it is close to the state in which it is installed in a predetermined rack and when it is actually operating. When it becomes unusable, it has an excellent effect that it can be tested whether or not the emergency generator operates normally.

以下、図面に基づいて本発明の最良の実施形態を説明する。   Hereinafter, the best embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

図において、符号1は電算機室を示す。該電算機室1内には、複数の電算機棟2・・・が所定の間隔をおいて設置される。
この電算機棟2は、電算機ラック3内に複数の電算機4・・・が配置されて形成される(図4参照)。
In the figure, reference numeral 1 indicates a computer room. In the computer room 1, a plurality of computer buildings 2 ... Are installed at predetermined intervals.
The computer ridge 2 is formed by arranging a plurality of computers 4 ... In a computer rack 3 (see FIG. 4).

なお、前記電算機棟2に配置される電算機4・・・は、同じ規格を有する電算機4ばかりではなく、それぞれの用途に応じ、消費電力が異なったもの、稼働の際の放出する熱エネルギーが異なったもの、扱うソフトが異なったもの、起動スピードに差のあるものなど複数種類の電算機4・・・が、あらかじめ決定された箇所に配置され、かつ所定の間隔をおいて配置されるものとなる。   In addition, the computers 4 ... Arranged in the computer building 2 are not only computers 4 having the same standard but also those having different power consumption according to their respective uses, and heat released during operation. Multiple types of computers, such as those with different energies, different software to handle, different startup speeds, etc., are arranged at predetermined locations and at predetermined intervals. It will be one.

ここで、前述の如く、実際に電算機4・・・を所定の決められた箇所に搭載した電算機棟2が電算機室1内に所定間隔をおいて配置され、前記複数の電算機4・・・が現実に稼働している状態で、電算機室1の各設備正常稼働の試験を行うのが好ましい。   Here, as described above, the computer ridges 2 in which the computers 4 ... Are actually mounted at predetermined locations are arranged in the computer room 1 at predetermined intervals, and the plurality of computers 4 are It is preferable to perform a test of normal operation of each equipment in the computer room 1 while the ... Is actually operating.

前記電算機室1における各電算機4・・・や電算機室設備の正常稼働はきわめて重要であり、そのため、電算機室1周辺の設備については、実際に使用されている状態でのレイアウトでかつ実際に稼働させた状態での入念なチェックが必要だからである。   The normal operation of each computer 4 ... and the computer room equipment in the computer room 1 is extremely important. Therefore, the equipment around the computer room 1 should be laid out in a state of being actually used. Moreover, it is necessary to perform a careful check in the actual operating state.

通常では、前記設備につき、電算機室1を立ち上げる前に入念な各種チェックが行なわれる。
そして、そのチェックは、電算機室1の各電算機棟2における電算機4・・・に、商用電力が継続的に正常に供給されるか否か、また電源からの送出電力を制御する分電盤や配電盤が正常に稼働するか否か、電力の送出ケーブルが正常に機能するか否か、電算機室1の空調設備5が適正に機能するか否かなどのチェックとなる。
Normally, various careful checks are performed on the equipment before the computer room 1 is started up.
Then, the check is based on whether or not the commercial power is continuously and normally supplied to the computers 4 ... In each computer ridge 2 of the computer room 1 and the amount of power output from the power source is controlled. It is checked whether or not the switchboard or switchboard operates normally, whether the power transmission cable functions normally, whether the air conditioning equipment 5 in the computer room 1 functions properly, and the like.

しかして、本発明ではこれらのチェックを乾式の負荷抵抗試験装置6のみを用いて行うものとした。   Therefore, in the present invention, these checks are performed by using only the dry type load resistance test apparatus 6.

ここで、本発明で使用される負荷抵抗試験装置6の構成につき説明する。
図から理解されるように、負荷抵抗試験装置6は、複数の棒状抵抗体7・・・を略水平方向に間隔をおいて配置し、必要があれば水平方向に配置した抵抗体群を上下方向に複数段配置し、これら抵抗体7・・・の接続や切替を操作部8により可能にして構成された抵抗ユニット9と、該抵抗ユニット9を冷却する冷却装置10とを含んで構成される。
Here, the configuration of the load resistance test apparatus 6 used in the present invention will be described.
As can be seen from the figure, the load resistance test apparatus 6 has a plurality of rod-shaped resistors 7 ... Arranged in a substantially horizontal direction at intervals and, if necessary, a resistor group arranged in the horizontal direction in the vertical direction. A resistor unit 9 arranged in a plurality of stages in the direction, enabling connection and switching of these resistors 7 ... With an operating unit 8, and a cooling device 10 for cooling the resistor unit 9. It

そして、前記負荷抵抗試験装置6の操作部8を各々操作することにより、前記複数の抵抗体7・・・の接続を切り替えて制御し、もって、複数の電算機棟2・・・に配置されている、あるいは配置されるべき電算機4の消費電力にあわせ、かつ複数の電算機棟2・・・に配置されている、あるいは配置されるべき箇所に当該負荷抵抗試験装置6を設置するのである。   Then, by operating each of the operation units 8 of the load resistance test apparatus 6, the connection of the plurality of resistors 7 ... Is switched and controlled, so that the resistors are arranged in the plurality of computer buildings 2. The load resistance test device 6 is installed at a location that is, or should be, arranged in a plurality of computer buildings 2 ... In accordance with the power consumption of the computer 4 that is or should be arranged. is there.

図から理解されるように、負荷抵抗試験装置6は、電算機ラック3内に配置される電算機4と同様の外形に形成してあり、前記電算機4に替え簡単に電算機ラック3内にマウント出来る様になっている。   As can be seen from the figure, the load resistance testing device 6 is formed to have the same outer shape as the computer 4 arranged in the computer rack 3, and the computer 4 can be easily replaced by the inside of the computer rack 3. It can be mounted on.

ここで、前記電算機ラック3内に3台の電算機4が配置予定の場合、3台の負荷抵抗試験装置6を同様の箇所にマウントして設置してもよいし、1台の負荷抵抗試験装置6を前記設置されるべき電算機ラック3内の3箇所の範囲のほぼ真ん中の箇所に配置しても構わない。
上記の場合、設置した1台の負荷抵抗試験装置6については、電算機4の3台分の消費電力が生じるよう負荷を調節しておく必要がある。
Here, when three computers 4 are to be arranged in the computer rack 3, three load resistance test devices 6 may be mounted and installed at the same location, or one load resistance device may be installed. The test device 6 may be arranged at a substantially central position within the range of three positions in the computer rack 3 to be installed.
In the above case, it is necessary to adjust the load of one installed load resistance test device 6 so that the power consumption of three computers 4 is generated.

しかして、上記の様にセットした複数の負荷抵抗試験装置6に商用電源から電力を送出して試験が行われる。
すなわち、商用電源から送出された電力を、前記負荷抵抗試験装置6が実際の電算機4・・・の設置と同様に各電算機棟2に配置され、この配置された電算機4と同様の消費電力を有する状態にして送出電力の試験が行われる。
Then, the electric power is sent from the commercial power source to the plurality of load resistance test devices 6 set as described above to perform the test.
That is, the electric power sent from the commercial power source is arranged in each computer building 2 by the load resistance test device 6 as in the actual installation of the computers 4 ... The transmitted power is tested with the power consumption.

この負荷試験は通常数時間を要するものであり、精密器機である電算機4・・・を用いての通電試験は行わない。精密器機である電算機4に予定しない過大な負荷をかけて試験を行う場合も生じ、前記精密機器である電算機4に損傷を与える恐れがあるからである。   This load test usually requires several hours, and a current-carrying test using a computer 4, which is a precision instrument, is not performed. This is because the test may be performed by applying an unexpectedly large load to the computer 4, which is a precision instrument, and the computer 4, which is the precision instrument, may be damaged.

しかるに、前記の負荷試験により、商用電源からの電力が、適正な電圧、すなわち、たとえば、交流の200V、あるいは100Vで送出されているか否か、電算機室1内の制御棟11に設置されている分電盤や配電盤が正常に電力送出制御を行っているか否か、あるいは電力送出ケーブルに異常がないか否か、さらには電算機室1に設置された空調設備5の空調動作が適正か否かなどが試験されるものとなる。   However, according to the load test, whether or not the power from the commercial power source is delivered at an appropriate voltage, that is, for example, 200 V AC or 100 V AC, is installed in the control ridge 11 in the computer room 1. Whether the distribution board or switchboard that is present is normally performing power transmission control, whether there is no abnormality in the power transmission cable, and whether the air conditioning operation of the air conditioning equipment 5 installed in the computer room 1 is appropriate. Whether or not it will be tested.

空調動作の適性試験とは、例えば消費電力が大きく、熱エネルギーの放出が大きい電算機4が設置してある箇所などに対し、適正に空調動作が行われているかなどでの試験を指標する。   The aptitude test of the air conditioning operation refers to, for example, a test of whether the air conditioning operation is properly performed on a place where the computer 4 that consumes a large amount of power and emits a large amount of heat energy is installed.

図2に示す様に、空調設備5は、電算機室1内に複数の空気吹き出し口12を有しており、前記の試験結果に基づき、現実の電算機室1の稼働に際して、各空気吹き出し口12の空気吹き出し量や温度を変えるべく調節したり、適正な空調動作が長時間行える様設定したりするものとなる。   As shown in FIG. 2, the air conditioning equipment 5 has a plurality of air outlets 12 in the computer room 1, and based on the above test results, each air outlet is operated when the computer room 1 is actually operated. The amount of air blown out from the mouth 12 and the temperature are adjusted so as to be changed, and the proper air conditioning operation can be set for a long time.

ここで、本発明によるシステム室の設備正常動作確認試験となる負荷試験の概略につき説明する。   Here, an outline of a load test as a facility normal operation confirmation test of the system room according to the present invention will be described.

まず、電算機室1内の各電算機棟2につき、所定の箇所に配置される、あるいは配置されていた各電算機4に替えて、同様の消費電力となるよう負荷を調節できる負荷抵抗試験装置6をセットする。このセットに当たっては、あくまでも配置されるべき各電算機4の設置箇所にあわせて負荷抵抗試験装置6をセットしていく。   First, for each computer wing 2 in the computer room 1, a load resistance test in which the load can be adjusted to have the same power consumption by replacing each computer 4 that has been or has been placed at a predetermined location Set the device 6. In this setting, the load resistance test device 6 is set in accordance with the installation location of each computer 4 that should be placed.

次いで、セットした負荷抵抗試験装置6・・・に通常使用する商用電源を繋ぎ、電力を送出する。商用電源から送出された電力は、制御棟11内に設置された分電盤や配電盤を介して送出電力が分岐され、各電算機4に替えてセットされた各負荷抵抗試験装置6・・・へ送出される。   Then, the load resistance tester 6 ... The electric power sent from the commercial power source is branched through a distribution board or a distribution board installed in the control building 11, and each load resistance test device 6 is set in place of each computer 4. Sent to.

ここで、数時間の通電試験が行われ、場合によっては各負荷抵抗試験装置6の電圧値を若干上昇させたり低下させたりなど変更し、その様な状態でも異常がないかが試験される。   Here, an energization test is performed for several hours, the voltage value of each load resistance test device 6 is changed, such as slightly increased or decreased, depending on the case, and it is tested whether or not there is an abnormality in such a state.

尚、商用電源からの電力送出において、送出される電力の電圧値が、例えば周辺地域での電力消費量の違いにより、時間によって200Vあるいは100Vから変動する場合もあり、この様な電圧変化も確認される。   In the power transmission from the commercial power source, the voltage value of the transmitted power may fluctuate from 200V or 100V depending on the time, for example, due to the difference in the power consumption in the surrounding area. To be done.

試験される設備は、前記の様に商用電源自体であり、また商用電源からの電力を制御する制御棟11に設置されている分電盤や配電盤であり、送出用のケーブルなどが挙げられる。   The equipment to be tested is the commercial power source itself as described above, or the distribution board or switchboard installed in the control building 11 that controls the power from the commercial power source, and examples thereof include a cable for transmission.

さらに、数時間の通電試験にあっては、各負荷抵抗試験装置6・・・が熱エネルギーの放出により温度上昇を招く。
この温度上昇に対し、電算機室1内には空調設備5が設置され、電算機室1自体が過度な温度上昇を起こさないように、また電算機室1に複数設置されているいずれかの電算機棟2が他の電算機棟2と比較して過度な温度上昇を起こさないよう、さらに各電算機棟2内にセットされた電算機4・・・が過度な温度上昇を起こさないよう調節する必要がある。
Further, in the energization test for several hours, the load resistance test devices 6 ...
In response to this temperature rise, the air conditioning equipment 5 is installed in the computer room 1, so that the computer room 1 itself does not cause an excessive temperature rise, and a plurality of computers are installed in the computer room 1. The computer building 2 does not cause an excessive temperature rise compared to other computer buildings 2, and the computer 4 ... Set in each computer building 2 does not cause an excessive temperature rise. Need to be adjusted.

よって、前記の状態をチェックすべく通電試験を行い、空調設備5の空調正常作動試験を行うのである。   Therefore, an energization test is performed to check the above-mentioned state, and an air conditioning normal operation test of the air conditioning equipment 5 is performed.

さらに、本発明では停電などによって商用電源が使用できないとき、当該電算機室1では、非常用の発電機からの電力供給を受ける。よって、非常時を想定して前記非常用の発電機が正常に稼働するか否かの試験も行えるものとなっている。   Further, in the present invention, when commercial power cannot be used due to a power failure or the like, the computer room 1 receives power from an emergency generator. Therefore, it is possible to test whether or not the emergency generator operates normally assuming an emergency.

本発明では前記の電源につき、商用電源に替え非常時に使用する非常用発電機からの送電試験をも行える。すなわち、例えば、停電などの非常事態が生じたとき、電算機室1での作業を中断することなく、作業が行えるように、別途発電機が用意されている。しかるにこの発電機につき、正常に電力が送出できるか否かは定期的に通電試験を行う必要があるからである。   In the present invention, it is possible to perform a power transmission test from an emergency power generator used in an emergency in place of the commercial power source for the power source. That is, for example, when an emergency such as a power failure occurs, a separate generator is prepared so that the work in the computer room 1 can be performed without interruption. This is because it is necessary to periodically carry out an energization test with respect to whether or not electric power can be normally sent out from this generator.
