Embodiment Construction

[0014] like figure 1 Shown is a schematic diagram of the application environment of the BMC running state display system of the present invention. In this embodiment, the BMC running state display system 100 is applied in the server 1 for monitoring the running state of the BMC 10 of the server 1 and displaying the running state of the BMC 10 by means of the digital tube 4 . The server 1 communicates with the service terminal 2 through the network 3 . The digital tube 4 is mounted on the I2C bus of the BMC 10, which also includes a Flash 40.

[0015] The nixie tube 4 is a type of display screen, and different pins are input with different currents to make it light up, thereby displaying different numbers. The digital tube 4 can display all parameters that can be represented by numbers such as time, date and temperature. In this embodiment, the digital tube 4 is used to display the hexadecimal numbers (0-255) corresponding to each important stage and common errors of the BMC...

Abstract

Disclosed is a BMC (baseboard management controller) running status display method. The method includes judging whether the running status of a BMC is normal or not; storing hexadecimal numbers corresponding to abnormalities when the running status of the BMC is abnormal; storing hexadecimal numbers of the important stage corresponding to the running status when the running status of the BMC is normal; prompting the running status of the BMC and displaying the hexadecimal numbers on a digital tube; looking up type declaration of the running status of the BMC corresponding to the hexadecimal numbers in text files according to the hexadecimal numbers and displaying the type declaration of the running status of the BMC on a webpage user interface of the BMC. The invention further provides a BMC running status display system. The running status of the BMC can be effectively acquired.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the monitoring field of a server, in particular to a system and a method for displaying the operating state of a Baseboard Management Controller (BMC). Background technique [0002] At present, most servers use BMC chips to monitor and manage their health status. BMC can obtain the necessary information of almost all the main equipment on the server, so as to provide convenience for users. For the running status of the BMC, BMC developers can check the running status of the BMC through the serial port and the BMC's breathing light (Heart Beat LED); for users, they can only simply judge whether the BMC is alive by checking the BMC's Heart Beat LED. It is difficult to determine the specific running status of the BMC. Therefore, BMC developers and users are eager to have a method to effectively obtain the running status of BMC. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a BMC running s...
