Abstract

The invention discloses a method for obtaining a fault signal of a storage device by a baseboard management controller, comprising the following steps: building a corresponding detector data record SDR of the storage device and the platform event selection PEF of the storage device in the memory block of the BMC; starting a self-monitoring system of the starting storage device, and ordering the self-monitoring system to detect the health detection data of the storage device; writing the health critical value corresponding to the health detection data into the memory block of the BMC; providing updating instructs such that the self-monitoring system writes the health detection data into the storage device SDR by updating the instructs.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for obtaining a fault signal of a storage device, in particular to a method for obtaining a fault signal of a storage device by using a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC). Background technique [0002] With the popularization of computers and the rapid development of network technology, the services that can only be provided by ordinary computers or equipment are not enough, so the server technology has been developed. A server is a computer platform that is good at processing network technology. It can be connected to various network systems and provide various application services to computers connected through the network system. Most servers have large-capacity storage devices to provide services such as multimedia playback, network hard drives, or enterprise databases. It can be seen that the storage device is a very important component in the server, and once a failure occurs, it will cause serious adverse ef...
