Abstract

The invention discloses an implementation method of updating management module firmware in large scale, and belongs to the field of server technology and firmware updating. The implementation method comprises the following steps: setting all management modules in the same network, appointing a server system which provides DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) and TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol), connecting each BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) to a system-level management module AMM (Advanced Management Module) through a LAN (Local Area Network) switch, and communicating through the network; using the command lines of the Shell and Expect scripts to update the firmware; logging the firmware of the management module BMC to the AMM management module through a Telnet tool of the control program in the Shell script; writing the IP (Internet Protocol) addresses of all management modules into a file through the program in the Expect script in charge of acquiring the IP addresses of all management modules in network; finally, reading the IP address file through the program for updating the firmware in the Expect script, and calling the Expect script circularly to update the firmware until the firmware update of all management modules is completed.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention discloses a method for realizing firmware, which belongs to the field of server technology and firmware update, and specifically relates to a method for realizing firmware of a large-scale update management module. Background technique

[0002] With the rapid development of cloud technology today, multi-unit server systems with advantages such as high computing density, good architecture deployment, and easy centralized management have been widely used in various industries. The multi-unit server system is a computing platform integrating server, network, storage, I / O, and management. The monitoring system is the guarantee for the normal operation of multi-unit servers, and is mainly composed of a board-level management module (BMC, Baseboard Management Controller) and a system-level management module (AMM, Advanced Management Module). Among them, AMM is responsible for the centralized management of the entire system. Its main functions ...
