Problems solved by technology

During the running of the server, the BMC may fail to work for a period of time (for example, unable to remotely access or obtain the server sensor value, etc.), which will affect the customer's operation and use of the server, so it is necessary to test these in the product testing process problem identification and resolution

Embodiment Construction

[0019] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0020] A method for automatically monitoring the working status of BMC based on ipmitool. This method uses shell scripts to realize the automatic installation of ipmitool tool, and automatically performs the monitoring and testing of the working status of the specified BMC according to the set parameters, eliminating the need for human-computer interaction. The monitoring program can be automatically run at the specified BMC IP address, and at the same time, the script can be modified to change the sensor value of the server to be monitored, check whether the BMC detection result is correct, and redirect the result to the text. as attached figure 1 As shown, the specific implementation process is:

[0021] 1. First, the staff enters the BMC IP address;

[0022] 2. Set the shell script to automatically install the ipmitool tool;

[0023] 3. W...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for automatically monitoring the BMC working state based on an ipmitool. The method specifically comprises the following steps: firstly, inputting a BMCIP address through an operator; setting a shell script; automatically installing an ipmitool; when the ipmitool can ping the BMCIP address, entering a next step; when the ipmitool cannot ping the BMCIP address, ending the whole detection process; acquiring the real time; reading an expected sensor value according to an ipmitool order, printing the sensor value on a screen for display, and meanwhile reoutputting the result to a log text in an orientation manner; returning to the step III till the monitoring is completed. Compared with the prior art, the method for automatically monitoring the BMC working state based on the ipmitool is convenient for using the script and simple to operate, the testing time can be set according to requirements without artificial interaction; the method is used for improving the testing efficiency and the testing accuracy in relevant testing of BMC study and development periods and is high in practicability, wide in application range and easy to popularize, the labor and the time are saved, and the working efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of BMC state monitoring, in particular to a method for automatically monitoring the working state of a BMC based on ipmitool with strong practicability. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of IT technology, traditional information services and increasingly powerful cloud computing services have higher and higher requirements for the stability of servers, and the number of servers used is increasing, which also brings new challenges to the monitoring, management and maintenance of servers. It is very important and convenient to monitor, manage and operate the server through BMC's web interface and KVM over IP function at this time. As a server product provider, a server needs to strictly monitor the quality of the product whether it is in the research and development stage or the production stage, so as to strictly ensure the stability of the product. There are more and more types of ser...
