Fault locating method and device

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a fault locating method and device. The fault locating method includes the steps that when a power-on starting device performs a BIOS program of a basic input and output system, monitoring is performed on hardware abnormity triggering conditions; when the hardware abnormity triggering conditions are monitored, abnormity information is collected, and the abnormity information at least comprises fault information of a central processing unit (CPU); the abnormity information is reported to a monitoring server through a network. Examining and accurate locating performed on the fault information are achieved in a remote mode.

Description

technical field [0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to computer technology, and in particular to a fault location method and device. Background technique [0002] The reliability of computer systems, especially server products, has always been a hot topic. If the server fails, it needs to be detected, located, and eliminated in time. This requires that the server can be conveniently used when the server does not have the function of a standard cathode ray tube (CRT) or liquid crystal display (LCD). The failure information is presented to the user. At this point, it is very important to collect and locate fault information in the Power On Self-Test (POST) stage. [0003] The logic block diagram of a typical computer or server is as follows: figure 1 As shown, the motherboard 100 includes: a memory 10 , a CPU 20 , a north bridge 30 , a south bridge 40 , peripherals 50 and a Basic Input and Output System (BIOS for short) 60 . In addition, the motherboard ...
