Abstract

The invention provides a hardware management method for a large-scale data centre for managing the data centre; the data centre comprises a plurality of racks; each rack comprises a plurality of different pieces of hardware equipment; each hardware equipment comprises a plurality of components; each rack, hardware equipment and component have management attribution; the management method comprises the following steps of acquiring the management attribution of each data centre, rack, hardware equipment and component; forming a hardware data structure topological graph according to the acquired management attribution of the data centre, rack, hardware equipment and component; issuing a management request based on user demand according to the order of the hardware data structure topological graph; and implementing the management of the plurality of components of the plurality of different pieces of hardware equipment according to the management request and according to a first equipment management manner or second equipment management manner stored in advance. By utilizing the hardware management method for the large-scale data centre, the unified management for the plurality of racks of the data centre is realized, the implementation is simple and reliable, and the organization form of the data centre management system is simplified.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of big data management, and relates to a management method and system, in particular to a large-scale data center hardware management method and system. Background technique [0002] Large-scale data centers have a large number of servers, storage arrays, and switches. How to manage these devices allows system administrators to grasp the overall health of the hardware, maintain and replace faulty devices in a timely manner, and improve device availability and reliability as a whole. And utilization is very important. The industry has mature solutions for servers and storage arrays. The former is based on IPMI (Intelligent Platform Management Interface, Intelligent Platform Management Interface), and the latter is based on SES (SCSI Enclosure Services, box services). However, there is no convenient solution for the comprehensive management of the data center. Major IT vendors have jointly defined CIM (Commo...
