Problems solved by technology

However, if the rated power of the in-place power module cannot meet the needs of the computing blades, or there are only computing blades in a certain slot without a corresponding fan module, in this case, if the computing blades are still powered on, it may cause system downtime or even equipment damage

Embodiment Construction

[0012] The method of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0013] Referring to the accompanying drawings, the content of the present invention will be described with specific examples to implement the process of implementing the blade server power-on strategy described in the present invention.

[0014] As described in the summary of the invention, the idle power determination strategy is as follows (in the example, the blade server system consists of power modules, fan modules, management modules, switching modules, computing blades, etc.):

[0015] Idle power calculation formula: idle power = number of power modules * maximum output power of a single power module – (number of management modules * maximum power of a single management module + number of switch modules * maximum power of a single switch module + number of computing blades * maximum power of a single computing blade)

[0016] If it is necessary to deter...

Abstract

The invention provides a power consumption method on a blade server, comprising two sub-strategies: 1, idle power determination strategy; 2, system fan location determination strategy, wherein: 1, if an idle power is less than a blade rated power, then power-up on the blade is restricted; determining whether the maximum power of a single computing blade is less or equal to the present idle power or not is needed to determine whether a computing blade is allowed to power up or not, if the condition is not satisfied, then the computing blade is not allowed to power up; 2, if a corresponding fan disc array does not exist at the location of the blade requesting power up, then the blade is restricted to power up, i.e., the system fan location determination strategy specifically refers: the blade is allowed to power up if a corresponding fan exists at the location of the blade requesting power up, otherwise the blade is not allowed to power up.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of server design, in particular to a method for using electricity on a blade server. Background technique [0002] Cloud computing is a new type of information resource management and computing service model, and it is a revolution in the information industry after large-scale computers, personal computers, and the Internet. Cloud computing can organically integrate scattered computing, storage, and service resources for management and services, which has changed the traditional concept of data center operation and management, and is the development direction of future computing. With its design concept of dynamic resource allocation and on-demand service, cloud computing has the unique charm of solving massive information processing at low cost. [0003] With the gradual new round of cloud computing transformation of data centers around the world, the design concepts of data center infrastructure such as servers and...
