Problems solved by technology

However, if multiple diskless workstations start at the same time, there will be resource competition problems. For example, if diskless workstation A and diskless workstation B are started at the same time, calling the same file in the file system in the server will cause no disk due to resource competition. Workstations start slowly, prolonging the boot time of diskless workstations and wasting server resources

Embodiment Construction

[0013] Such as figure 1 Shown is a hardware architecture diagram of a preferred embodiment of a system for avoiding resource competition during startup of a diskless workstation according to the present invention. The system includes a diskless workstation 10 , a network 20 and a server 30 . The server 30 may be a personal computer, a network server, or any other suitable computer.

[0014] Diskless Workstation 10( figure 1 Take two as example) to be connected with server 30 through network 20, and this diskless workstation 10 downloads startup program, configuration file, kernel and image file from server 30, and by mounting the file system on server 30 to diskless workstation 10 In the internal memory, to realize the startup of the diskless workstation 10, the diskless workstation 10 is a diskless (that is, does not include a hard disk) personal computer, a notebook computer, and any other device or system capable of diskless startup.

[0015] The network 20 can be the In...

Abstract

The invention provides a system and a method for avoiding resource competition during starting a diskless workstation. The method comprises the following steps of sending a broadcast packet containing an Internet protocol address of the diskless workstation to a server so as to establish communication connection; downloading a guide program, a kernel, a mirror document and a configuration document of an operation system from the server to a memory of the diskless workstation; executing the guide program, and starting the kernel according to the configuration document and the mirror document; creating a temporary document directory during starting the kernel and realizing the operation that mounting the document system of the operation system to the diskless workstation; and creating a subdirectory under the created temporary document directory for storing the information generated in the starting process of the operation system, and creating a record document under the created subdirectory for recording the information generated in the starting process of the operation system. With the adoption of the method provided by the invention, the resource competition due to synchronous starting of multiple diskless workstations can be avoided, and the starting time of the diskless workstation can also be shortened.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a system and method for avoiding resource competition during the start-up process of a diskless workstation. Background technique [0002] There are many ways to achieve diskless work, one of which is to download some necessary files in the operating system, such as the kernel (kernel), configuration files, etc., into the memory of the diskless workstation, and mount (or image) operating system's file system, and then boot the diskless workstation. The characteristic of this working method is that multiple diskless workstations share the same file system. However, if multiple diskless workstations start at the same time, there will be resource competition problems. For example, if diskless workstation A and diskless workstation B are started at the same time, calling the same file in the file system in the server will cause no disk due to resource competition. Workstations start slowly, prolonging the boot time of diskless wo...
