FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram of filtering information of a method and system for integrating and managing an IDC room entity and a virtual host according to the present invention.

The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

The present invention is further described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a structural diagram of a method and system for integrated management of an IDC room entity and a virtual host according to the present invention, including a user interface 110 for front-end users and The medium between the back-end modules receives the user's request and transmits it to the back-end module, and returns the result of the back-end monitoring module monitoring result and the resource configuration module configuration to the user; the monitoring module 121 is To monitor the status of the physical host 131 and the virtual host 132 in the cabinet, wherein the monitored items include monitoring the temperature, humidity, power consumption, traffic flow of the physical host 131, CPU usage of the virtual host 132, and usage of the hard disk. And the traffic flow, and the monitoring status is provided to the management terminal. When the management terminal finds that the status is abnormal, the alarm is automatically sent to notify the user, so that the user can perform corresponding processing on the abnormal host; the resource configuration module 122 is based on the use. The host status of the required or monitored host automatically schedules the computing resources of the physical host 131 and the virtual host 132 of the configuration room.

Please refer to FIG. 2 , which is a monitoring flowchart of a method and system for integrating and managing an IDC room entity and a virtual host according to the present invention. The process is as follows: S210 monitors the health status of each entity host and the virtual host; and determines the S220 entity host and the virtual host. Whether the monitored values exceed the threshold; If no, go back to S210 to monitor the health status of each entity host and virtual host; if yes, the S230 management terminal sends an alarm to inform the user that the entity and the virtual host are in an abnormal state.

According to the above process, the monitoring module is responsible for monitoring the health status of each entity host and the virtual host, and each monitoring item can be set by the user to a tolerable threshold. When the monitoring module finds that the monitoring value of the physical host or the virtual host exceeds The threshold value is sent to the management terminal to inform the user that the physical condition of the entity or the virtual host is abnormal, so that the user can perform maintenance on the abnormal host.

Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a flowchart of an automatic resource configuration method for the integrated management method and system of the IDC room entity and the virtual host of the present invention, and determines the source of the S310 requirement; if the user is required to use the entity or the virtual host, the S320 is monitored according to the monitoring. The physical and virtual host health status monitored by the module, S321 determines the appropriate entity or virtual host, S322 assigns the entity and the virtual host to the user; if the entity or virtual host monitors the value abnormally, the S330 monitors according to the monitoring module. Entity and virtual host health, S331 selects other entities or virtual hosts with good health, and S332 allocates new entities or virtual hosts for data backup.

According to the above process, in the first case, the computing resources are automatically configured according to the user's requirements. When the user proposes to use the physical host or the virtual host, according to the user's needs and the health status of the host returned by the monitoring module, The host with the best health status is assigned to the user, for example, the traffic load is low, the CPU usage is low, and the remaining space of the hard disk can meet the user's needs. The physical or virtual host achieves the purpose of rapid deployment and flexible expansion. The second case is to find that the physical host or virtual host monitoring value is abnormal, which may cause the host to be faulty, causing the running work to be interrupted and the data to be lost. According to the health status of the physical host or virtual host monitored by the monitoring module, find other backup hosts with good health conditions, and provide data backup, so that all the work can be stably operated and the reliability is improved.

The implementation example is as follows: when the monitoring module issues a virtual host hard drive When the remaining space is insufficient, the manager needs to schedule the computing resources, select other suitable devices to be connected according to the monitoring information, and save the user's data to other devices without costly adding new hardware devices. Maintain data consistency and avoid service interruptions.

Please refer to FIG. 4, which is the entity and virtual of the IDC engine room of the present invention. The method and system for filtering the hard disk are illustrated. In the equipment room, there are M physical hosts and N virtual hosts. It can be used for data storage and backup, in order to avoid data backup to new hosts. The new host hard disk is not enough. First, remove the host with more than 80% of the hard disk usage. The remaining physical host or virtual host is a list of spare disks with sufficient hard disk space. Please refer to FIG. 5 , which is a filtering service description diagram of the method and system for integrating and managing the physical and virtual host of the IDC computer room of the present invention, and the remaining list of hosts with sufficient hard disk space is selected according to other monitoring information conditions. Suitable host, such as: traffic, when the traffic volume is greater than 70%, the network congestion is high, the service quality is unstable, so the host is not suitable as a backup object, according to the filtering result shown in Figure 4, the physical host is still visible. 33% of the hard disk available space, Figure 5 filtering results show that the physical host 1 traffic is only 28%, so the physical host 1 hard disk load, and the quality of the signal is stable, is suitable for data backup Alternatively, the virtual host 1 can be constructed on the physical host 1.

By periodically confirming the monitoring information status, when the host is found to be healthy When the situation is not good, you can find the most suitable host for backup in a short time according to the monitoring information, avoid the user's troubles or business loss caused by the service interruption, strengthen the network service quality, and improve the reliability of the IDC engine room. , bringing new business opportunities to different industries such as finance, telecommunications, Internet services and e-commerce.

The above detailed description is directed to one possible embodiment of the present invention. The detailed description is not intended to limit the scope of the invention, and the equivalents and modifications may be included in the scope of the present invention.

In summary, this case is not only innovative in terms of technical thinking, but also The above-mentioned multiple functions not covered by the traditional methods of preparation have fully complied with the statutory invention patent requirements of novelty and progressiveness. If you apply in accordance with the law, you are requested to approve the application for the invention patent to encourage the invention.
