Embodiment Construction

[0008] 1. RMC (Rack Management Center) is integrated in the Rack cabinet system. Based on the IPMI2.0 management specification, through the remote management interface, a unique DDNS domain name is assigned to the node BMC at each position in the cabinet, and it is used as the fixed capital number of the node at the same time. Node-based management and asset information records;

[0009] 2. Each node in the Rack cabinet integrates a BMC management chip and supports IPMI2.0 management specifications. After the BMC obtains the DDNS domain name assigned by the RMC, it saves it in the EEPROM of the main board as the unique fixed asset number and Manage domain names.

[0010] Except for the technical features described in the instructions, all are known technologies by those skilled in the art.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for locating an IPM2.0 standard-based main board in a machine cabinet. According to the invention, an IPMI (intelligent platform management interface) management standard is used, the method is also combined with a DDNS (dynamic domain name server) domain name resolution service and matches a Rack slot position addressing solution to realize integral uniform management of multiple nodes and simplify operation difficulty. The method comprises the following steps that: (1) after Rack finishes electrification to a client room, an integrated RMC (rational method composer) in the machine cabinet firstly scans node number, corresponding slot position and node DDNS domain name configured in the present Rack, and the DDNS domain name and a slot position number of a node are bound to form an asset management detailed list; and (2) in a using process, a service department firstly reports a maintenance requirement to an operation department and provides the DDNS name domain of a fault node once a some node has failure, and after the operation department receives the DDNS domain name, a user can quickly find out a specific position of the fault node and performs maintenance change as long as logging in an RMC management interface.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computer application, in particular to a method for positioning a motherboard in a cabinet based on the IPMI2.0 standard. Background technique [0002] In the existing technology, because Rack products are in the form of cabinets, each Rack can support a maximum of 80 server nodes. With such a high-density deployment, asset positioning and remote management of server nodes will be the key to the operation and maintenance work of end users. a major difficulty. Contents of the invention [0003] The purpose of the present invention is to develop and design a server cluster system using Rack cabinets as a product form to meet the needs of Internet customers for high-density deployment and centralized management. In the entire system, the maximum number of server nodes can reach 80. In order to realize the unified management and deployment of all nodes in the entire system, a DDNS-based positioning method ...
