Embodiment Construction

[0014] Such as figure 1 Shown is a structure diagram of a preferred embodiment of the BMC cycle test system of the present invention.

[0015] The BMC cycle testing system 10 runs in a computer 1 connected to a display screen 11 and an electronic switch 2 . The electronic switch 2 is connected to a server 3, and the server 3 includes a chip BMC30. The electronic switch 2 is connected to the power supply of the server 3, and the power supply of the server 3 can be turned on and off through the electronic switch 2.

[0016] Such as figure 2 Shown is a functional block diagram of a preferred embodiment of the BMC cycle testing system of the present invention.

[0017] The BMC cycle test system 10 includes a control module 100 , a monitoring module 101 , a judging module 102 and a display module 103 .

[0018] The control module 100 is used to control the serial port of the computer 1 to send pulse signals to the electronic switch 2 .

[0019] After the electronic switch 2 r...

Abstract

The invention discloses a BMC (baseboard management controller) loop test method comprising the steps as follows: controlling a serial port of a computer to send a pulse signal to an electronic switch, triggering a power source of a server to turn on when the electronic switch receives the pulse signal, and monitoring the starting situation of BMC in the server through a port on the server; when successfully accessing BMC within a default in a remote way, and judging that BMC is successfully started, controlling the serial port of the computer to send the pulse signal to the electronic switch again; when the electronic switch receives the pulse signal, triggering the power source of the server to turn off; and judging whether the loop test time is up to the default or not, if so, displaying the test information onto a display screen of the computer. The invention further provides a BMC loop test system. The automatic loop detection for the BMC power source aging test can be realized in an alternating current environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a BMC cycle test method and system. Background technique [0002] The full name of BMC is Baseboard Management Controller, which refers to the baseboard manager and is mainly used for remote management. At present, in the server automation test, the BMC power aging test of the server is realized by continuously turning on and off the BMC when the BMC is not powered off. Such a test method is limited to the BMC DC test, and does not consider the situation when the BMC is completely powered off. When the BMC is completely powered off, it is impossible for the BMC to start up by itself. Therefore, the BMC DC test method has limitations, and cannot test the state of the BMC under AC conditions. However, there is a demand for the BMC power aging test in the AC environment, so it is necessary to design a test method for the BMC power aging test in the AC environment. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of the above, it i...
