A temperature monitoring method and temperature monitoring system for boards in a network

Abstract

The invention discloses a temperature monitoring method for an integrated circuit board in a network. The temperature monitoring method comprises the following steps that: network equipment with an Infiniband integrated circuit board transmits temperature data information carrying an identification number of the network equipment to a temperature acquisition lower computer, wherein the temperature data information is the temperature data information of the Infiniband integrated circuit board, and the identification number is the identification number of the network equipment in the network; the temperature acquisition lower computer transmits the temperature data information carrying the identification number of the network equipment received from each piece of the network equipment with the Infiniband integrated circuit board to a temperature server; and the temperature server receives the temperature data information carrying the identification number of the network equipment, compares the temperature data of the network equipment with a predetermined temperature threshold value according to the identification number of the network equipment, and generates a temperature overheating prompt of the network equipment when the temperature data of the network equipment exceeds the temperature threshold value. The invention also discloses a temperature monitoring system. By adopting the method and the system, the temperature of the network equipment with the Infiniband integrated circuit board in the network can be monitored.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computers, and more specifically, to a method and system for monitoring the temperature of boards in a network. Background technique [0002] Wireless bandwidth Infiniband technology is an open standard high-bandwidth, high-speed network interconnection technology, widely used in servers and servers (such as replication, distributed work, etc.), servers and storage devices (such as storage area network SAN and direct storage attachments) and Communication between servers and networks such as LAN, WAN, and the Internet. At present, the data rate of Infiniband technology in the server field has been developed to QDR (QuadDataRate, 4 times data rate) and FDR (FourteenDataRate, 14 times data rate), which are 40Gbps and 56Gbps per port respectively. [0003] For these high-speed Infiniband network cards, switches, etc., the normal operation of each node in the network communication has a lot to do with the he...

Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, the method of obtaining board temperature through SMBus is only used for the daughter card side of the blade or rack server, and cannot be used for the switch connected to the daughter card through the Infiniband network, because the switch only communicates with the host channel corresponding to each daughter card through the Infiniband network The adapter (HostChannelAdapter, HCA) card establishes the connection

Moreover, this temperature monitoring method can only monitor individual servers, and cannot monitor the temperature of Infiniband servers and / or Infiniband switches in the entire network

In addition, the existing temperature monitoring method by installing a temperature sensor can only measure the temperature around the installation location, and cannot accurately measure the internal temperature of the main chip

Moreover, the current management module of the server does not have the function of querying and analyzing the historical data and trends of the Infiniband board temperature
