Problems solved by technology

However, before capturing the disk array information in the window operating system, it takes time to wait for the window operating system to load, which cannot effectively improve the efficiency of the test.
In addition, the ACU itself can only obtain the information of the logical disk, but cannot know the information of the physical disk.

Embodiment Construction

[0017] The method and system for obtaining disk array information in a preferred embodiment of the present invention is to issue an information request in an operating system environment, then package the information request into a disk array command, and obtain the disk array by the disk array control card instruction. The disk array control card outputs the information request in the disk array command to the physical disk drive, so as to obtain disk array information such as a disk array configuration information and a physical disk drive information.

[0018] The method for obtaining disk array information according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described below. Please refer to figure 1 , which shows a flowchart of a method for obtaining disk array information according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. First, as shown in step S1, an information request (data request) is issued in an operating system. In this embodiment, th...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a system for acquiring disk array information. The method for acquiring the disk array information comprises that: an information requirement is transmitted in an operating system; the information requirement is packaged into a disk array instruction; a disk array control card acquires the disk array instruction; and the disk array control card outputs the information requirement in the disk array instruction so as to acquire the disk array information. The system for acquiring the disk array information comprises a storage media, a requirement unit, a packaging unit and the disk array control card. The operating system is arranged in the storage media; the requirement unit is used for transmitting the information requirement in the operating system; the packaging unit is used for packaging the information requirement into the disk array instruction; and the disk array control card is used for acquiring the disk array instruction and outputting the information requirement in the disk array instruction so as to acquire the disk array information.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method and system for obtaining disk array information, and in particular to a method and system for rapidly obtaining disk array information. Background technique [0002] With the development of information technology, due to the continuous improvement of computer users' requirements for the transmission rate, storage capacity and operation stability of computer information products, the industry is driven to continuously develop various new products to meet the needs of consumers. Therefore, the Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID) system developed to improve the security of computer data storage is increasingly favored by users. A disk array system generally includes at least one source disk and at least one corresponding mirror disk, and treats multiple physical disks as a logical disk. When the data is written to the source disk, the stored data is also backed up in the mirror disk to prevent data loss w...
