Embodiment Construction

[0014] like figure 1 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the application environment of the data center multi-node management system 10 of the present invention. In this embodiment, the data center multi-node management system 10 runs on the backplane 1 in the rack (Rack) type data center. The backplane 1 includes a memory 12, a processor 14, a firmware (Firmware, FW) 16, a first register 18, and a second register 20. The backplane 1 is connected to a plurality of nodes 2 in the Rack through a backplane slot 22, and the nodes 2 It is the server in Rack.

[0015] The backplane 1 is a circuit board, which can be connected with hardware such as a hard disk, a temperature sensor, etc., and monitor the operation of the above hardware.

[0016] The FW 16 is a program written in the EROM or programmable read-only memory (EPROM) of the backplane 1. It is a program code solidified inside the integrated circuit and is responsible for controlling and coordinating the functions of th...

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-node management system and method for a data center. The system comprises a judging module, an updating module and a generating module, wherein the judging module is used for judging whether each node is plugged onto a back plate slot or not at a preset time interval in sequence when a back plate is powered on; the updating module is used for updating a byte value for recording the existence state of a node in a first register on the back plate into a first value when the node is plugged into back plate slot; the updating module is further used for updating the byte value for recording the existence state of the node in the first register on the back plate into a second value when the node is not plugged into the back plate slot; the generating module is used for generating a monitoring report according to the existence state of each node recorded in the first register on the current back plate. According to the multi-node management system and method, the existence state and running state of each node in the data center can be detected in real time without adding any hardware resource or consuming excessive GPIO (General Purpose Input / output).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a data center multi-node management system and method. Background technique [0002] With the explosive growth of data processing requirements and the continuous maturity of cloud technology, more and more Rack-style data centers appear in the industry, and the number of nodes equipped in Rack is also increasing. Usually, each node in Rack plays a different role, and it is necessary to detect the existence of each node. The current industry practice is to assign a general-purpose input / output port GPIO to each node to detect whether each node exists. However, if every node needs to know whether every other node is present, each node needs to allocate a considerable number of GPIOs. If the number of nodes in Rack is large, GPIO resources will be extremely wasted, and the difficulty and complexity of wiring will be increased. Contents of the invention [0003] In view of the above, it is necessary to provide a data center mul...
