Embodiment Construction

[0016] The alarm method of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] The method of the present invention includes the fault information identifying unit in the BIOS in the form of a software process, and queries the historical error information of the error information database and whether there is memory error information when the system is started.

[0018] Through the software detection of the fault information identification unit, not only can it be identified: (1) the memory component itself sends out a hardware fault circuit signal, but it can also detect (2) memory chip failures, memory installation errors and other errors that cannot be triggered by the memory components themselves Information; the fault information identification unit (1) can obtain memory error information in the error information database (2) or during the current startup process through the monitoring channel.

Abstract

The invention provides a server memory failure alarm method. A software program is used for recognizing memory error messages at a startup stage of a server system, the messages are transmitted to a management chip embedded into a main board and are judged in a classified manner, and alarm is given according to levels. The system comprises a failure information recognition unit, an error message database and an alarm unit, wherein the failure information recognition unit is used for acquiring the error messages sent out by a memory component in the system to provide evidence for judging memory failure, the error message database is used for collecting and transmitting the memory error messages, and the alarm unit is used for selecting different failure alarm modes according to different error messages. By implementing the memory failure alarm method in the server system, reliability of the system can be enhanced to a large extent, maintenance is facilitated, and the total image of the system is improved.

Description

technical background [0001] In the current server system, the existing technology only triggers the hardware fault circuit signal through the memory component, and performs fault indication through the onboard LED. This type of design has the following shortcomings: [0002] 1. The fault information cannot be recorded. Once the system is powered off, the fault information found during this startup will be cleared; [0003] 2. The types of faults that the system can identify are limited: only simple error messages that can be detected by the memory components themselves are supported, such as the memory temperature is too high and the number of Error IO records is too high. However, for error messages that cannot be detected or reported by memory components such as memory chip failures and memory installation errors, the server system cannot generate alarm messages; [0004] 3. It is impossible to report to the police according to the severity of the fault. Contents of the i...
