Problems solved by technology

However, it is difficult to determine the most reasonable number of redundant power supply units in this way
If the number of redundant power supply units is relatively large, although it can ensure the normal and stable operation of the data center, in fact, the redundant power supply units do not work in many cases, which will cause waste of resources and increase costs.
In addition, even with redundant power supply units, sometimes the possible event that the entire data center cannot work normally cannot be avoided
For example, only two redundant power supply units are equipped, but three power supply units fail, and the work of one faulty power supply unit cannot take over

Embodiment Construction

[0015] refer to figure 1 Shown is an application environment diagram of a preferred embodiment of the data center power distribution system of the present invention. The data center power allocation system 10 runs in a control computer 1, and the control computer 1 is connected to the data center 2 through a network. The control computer 1 also includes a memory 11 and a processor 12 connected through a data bus. The data center 2 includes a plurality of servers or memory hosts (not shown in the figure), and the plurality of servers or memory hosts include a plurality of motherboards 20 (two are taken as an example in the figure) and power supply modules 30, each The motherboard 20 includes a BMC (Baseboard Management Controller, baseboard management controller) 21 and a power management chip (eg INA219AIDR) 22 .

[0016] The power supply module 30 is composed of multiple power supply devices, and each power supply device can supply power to one or more motherboards 20 in th...

Abstract

The invention discloses a power allocation system for data centre. The system is used for determining one BMC in the data centre as the main BMC, controlling the main BMC for reading the total power consumption of the whole data centre at fixed period from a power supply module through a power management bus; selecting the mainboard capable of being turned off in the data centre according to the preset principle after that the read total power consumption gets to the power supply upper limit of the power supply module; sending a control command to the selected mainboard for controlling the selected mainboard for turning off provisionally. A power allocation method for data centre is also provided. The power supply status of the whole data centre can be intelligently managed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a control method and system, in particular to a data center power distribution method and system. Background technique [0002] A data center (Data Center) is composed of many servers and memory hosts. All these huge number of servers and memory hosts make the power supply module work under heavy load all the time. If a power supply unit in the power supply module fails, it may cause insufficient power supply, making the entire data center unable to work normally and stably, and the resulting losses are immeasurable. In order to avoid this situation, the common practice in the industry is to use redundant power supply units. When a power supply unit fails, the redundant power supply unit takes over the work of the failed power supply unit to ensure the normal and stable operation of the entire data center. However, it is difficult to determine the most reasonable number of redundant power supply units in this manner. ...
