Problems solved by technology

However, limited by hardware conditions, in a single-point architecture server, energy consumption control cannot be perfectly realized, because the energy consumption of some necessary components of the system cannot be well controlled
As long as the server is running, regardless of the current load, the constant no-load energy consumption of the motherboard will always exist, and according to the survey, the no-load energy consumption of a general computer can reach 30% or more of the peak energy consumption of the whole machine , if the minimum energy consumption under no-load conditions is not controlled according to the situation, it will undoubtedly affect the overall effect of energy consumption regulation

Embodiment Construction

[0021] Such as figure 1 As shown, the server of the present invention includes a computing node, a shared storage system and a storage adapter, and the computing node includes multiple computing modules.

[0022] Computing nodes are used to receive and process load requests, complete computing tasks, and run load monitoring programs on multiple computing modules of computing nodes to monitor current loads and select serving computing modules according to current loads.

[0023] The shared storage system is used to provide storage services for servers.

[0024] Storage adapters are used to connect multiple computing modules and connect computing nodes to shared storage systems.

[0025] The calculation module is one or more of multi-channel server, computer, netbook and system on chip. When the computing module includes multiple servers, computers, and netbooks, the storage adapter is an Ethernet adapter; when the computing module includes a system on chip, the storage adapte...

Abstract

The invention provides a working method of a server, and the working method comprises the following steps: turning on a timer, setting the initial endurance time t of the timer to be equal to 0, judging whether the depth of a current load queue is between a low load threshold value and a high load threshold value or not, judging whether the depth of the current load queue is less than the low load threshold value or not if the depth of the current load queue is not between the low load threshold value and the high load threshold value, judging whether the endurance time t of the timer is more than a low load time threshold value or not if the depth of the current load queue is less than the low load threshold value, switching from a current calculating module to another lower-energy-level calculating module if the endurance time t of the timer is more than the low load time threshold value, and beginning receiving a new load by the lower-energy-level calculating module. The working method of the server has the advantages that the performances of the calculating modules can be extended, a storage space can be extended flexibly, the energy consumption of the calculating modules can be regulated according to performance requirements, and the minimization of the idle-load energy consumption of a system can be achieved to achieve high-efficiency service.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the computer field, and more specifically, the present invention relates to a server and its working method. Background technique [0002] With the development of information technology, there are more and more various types of network applications today, and general Internet application solutions use servers to provide corresponding network application services. In a wide variety of Internet applications, different network applications have very different performance requirements for servers. The current server is generally a single structure, basically a motherboard is responsible for connecting various computer components inside the chassis, so that There is a bottleneck in the computing performance of the server, which cannot cope with the flexible and diverse performance requirements of different services. On the other hand, due to the upper limit of the number of external disks that can be connected to the south ...
