Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, under this concept, each server node is limited to division of labor and cannot work together, often resulting in all server nodes in the server's data center (Data Center) operating at the same performance state at the same time , resulting in excessive power consumption
Moreover, when the server is in normal operation, the power supplies configured on the server are all activated to provide the power supply voltage required by the server nodes of the server. However, in the actual operation of the server, all server nodes are not necessarily are fully loaded, resulting in excessive power consumption

Embodiment Construction

[0027] Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, structural principle and working principle of the present invention are specifically described:

[0028] Please refer to Figure 1, which is a schematic diagram of the cabinet of the present invention. The rack 100 includes a plurality of main power supplies 110_1~110_N, a plurality of backup power supplies 120_1~120_N, a plurality of nodes 130_1~130_M, a rack management controller (Rack Management Controller, RMC) 140 and a control unit 150, wherein N, M is a positive integer greater than 1, and N and M may be the same or different.

[0029] The main power supplies 110_1 - 110_N are used to respectively provide an operating voltage. That is to say, when the main power supplies 110_1 - 110_N are in a normal state, for example, they provide the main working voltage of the cabinet 100 .

[0030] The backup power supplies 120_1 - 120_N are used to provide a working voltage respectively. That is to say, when the backup power...

Abstract

The invention discloses an equipment cabinet and a power source control method thereof. The equipment cabinet is provided with a plurality of nodes; the power source control method of the equipment cabinet comprises the following steps of receiving the respective power information of the nodes; calculating the total power consumption value of the nodes according to the power information; calculating the starting number of power supplies according to the total power consumption value and the maximal supplied power value of a single power supply; calculating an actual starting number according to the starting number of the power supplies, wherein the actual starting number is larger than the starting number of the power supplies; starting a plurality of main power supplies and a plurality of standby power supplies in pairs according to the actual starting number, wherein the main power supplies are used for supplying the working voltage for the nodes, the standby power supplies are not used for supplying the working voltage for the nodes, and input sources received by the main power supplies and the standby power supplies are different.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a power control method, in particular to a cabinet and its power control method. Background technique [0002] Generally speaking, the current servers (Server) generally emphasize their individual performance and functions. The server designed based on this concept emphasizes the division of labor and independent operation. That is to say, each server node (Server Node) only dynamically adjusts its own energy consumption according to its own conditions and needs, so as to pursue a balance between its own energy saving and performance. [0003] However, under this concept, each server node is limited to division of labor and cannot work together, often resulting in all server nodes in the server's data center (Data Center) operating at the same performance state at the same time , resulting in excessive power consumption. Moreover, when the server is in normal operation, the power supplies configured on the server are all act...
