Problems solved by technology

However, the existing system architecture does not provide a monitoring mechanism for the baseboard management controller, so that when the baseboard management controller fails to function, the system administrator cannot know that the baseboard management controller has failed
However, without the monitoring function of the baseboard management controller, the operating system will be in an unstable state, making the server unable to run stably, and even causing unrecoverable damage to the hardware

Embodiment Construction

[0015] Such as figure 1 As shown, it is an operating environment diagram of a preferred embodiment of the BMC monitoring system of the present invention. The baseboard management controller monitoring system 10 runs in a server 1, and the server 1 includes a system management memory (system management RAM, SMRAM) 11 (hereinafter referred to as SMRAM 11), a real time clock chip (real time clock, RTC) 12 (hereinafter referred to as RTC 12 ), platform controller hub (platform controller hub, PCH) 13 (hereinafter referred to as PCH 13 ), and baseboard management controller (baseboard management controller, BMC) 14 (hereinafter referred to as BMC 14 ). The SMRAM 11 stores a monitoring command, which is used to regularly acquire the status value of the BMC 14 according to the clock signal of the RTC 12, and the baseboard management controller monitoring system 10 judges whether the operating system of the server 1 is normal, and determine whether the status of the BMC 14 is normal....

Abstract

The invention provides a baseboard management controller monitoring system. The system comprises a sending module, a triggering module, an execution module, a resetting module and a recording module. The sending module is used for controlling a real-time clock to send clock signals to a platform controller hub according to a time interval set by a user after a server is powered on. The triggering module is used for triggering system management interrupt after the platform controller hub receives the clock signals. The execution module is used for executing a monitoring command to acquire a status value of the baseboard management controller. The resetting module is used for restarting the server if the acquired state value of the baseboard management controller is an abnormal state value. The recording module is used for recording abnormities of the baseboard management controller and sending warning information to a system administrator. The invention further provides a baseboard management controller monitoring method. By the system and the method, states of the baseboard management controller can be monitored in real time.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a monitoring system and method, in particular to a monitoring system and method for a substrate management controller. Background technique [0002] Based on the server's requirements for remote control and system stability, a baseboard management controller is usually built on the server to improve system stability and realize remote control. However, the existing system architecture does not provide a monitoring mechanism for the baseboard management controller, so that when the baseboard management controller fails to function, the system administrator cannot know that the baseboard management controller has failed. However, without the monitoring function of the baseboard management controller, the operating system will be in an unstable state, making the server unable to run stably, and even causing unrecoverable damage to the hardware. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of the above, it is necessary to ...
