Method for automatically detecting hard disk abnormality

Abstract

The present invention, belonging to the technical field of computers, provides a method for automatically detecting a hard disk abnormality. The method comprises steps of: preparing a test environment on a server, setting up a test platform, installing an operating system, installing a test tool, configuring test parameters, starting a test, monitoring a test process; and condition selection: if the test monitoring process fails, checking error report information and recording a hard disk SN code, conduct subsequent processing, and ending the test; and if the test monitoring process is subjected to no abnormality, checking a test result, and ending the test. The method for automatically detecting a hard disk abnormality achieves detection on the hard disk information and health state in combination with the smartctl command under Linux, integrates such detection into a restart test of the server, achieves the objective of testing stability of a storage subsystem by long-term restart test and the hard disk detection test each time; and additionally implements the hard disk reliability and stability tests.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of computers, in particular to a method for automatically detecting abnormality of a hard disk. Background technique [0002] Generally, with the continuous development and expansion of servers, server suppliers have developed server applications in various fields, such as the Internet, finance, etc. Customer applications have become more complex and diverse than in the past. As one of the key components of the server, the hard disk has been disconnected more than once, seriously affecting the customer's data storage application. This is a serious quality problem that the customer cannot accept. [0003] With the continuous development of the server industry, the trend of Rack as an overall solution for Internet development has become more obvious; at the same time, with the increase in the number of rack nodes and the capacity of the hard disk itself, the storage subsystem has also grown unprecedentedly. ...
