Therefore, the entire dual-purpose hard disk backplane needs to be powered off to replace the hard disk in the middle of the test, and the Windows or Linux system needs to be started twice, which takes a long time
Especially in large-scale factory testing, frequently starting the operating system consumes a lot of time and labor costs

Embodiment 1
[0022] The specific steps of the functional test optimization method of the dual-purpose hard disk backplane of the server are as follows:
[0023] 1) Check the boot sequence of BIOSSetup and make sure that the first boot item of the machine is bootfrombuild-inshell;
[0024] 2) Insert the NVME adapter card into PCIe Slot0 of the motherboard, insert the RAID card into Slot1, connect the NVME adapter card to the NVME interface on the dual-purpose hard disk backplane with an NVME cable, and plug the NVME hard disk interface full of NVME hard disks;
[0025] 3) Write scripts and test programs, so that the machine automatically enters the file system where the test program is stored after entering UEFIshell, and checks whether the file is marked with NVMEPASS. If it does not exist, run the NVME module test program;
[0026] 4) The NVME module test program captures the number of NVME hard disks on the backplane, and reads and writes them;
[0027] 5) If the number of NVME hard dis...

[0031] The functional test optimization method of the dual-purpose hard disk backplane of the server is elaborated as follows:
[0032] Check the startup sequence of BIOSSetup, make bootfrombuild-inefishell the first startup item, and the machine will automatically start build-inefishell;
[0033] Insert the NVME adapter card into PCIe Slot0 of the motherboard, and insert the RAID card into Slot1 for backup; use an NVME cable to connect the NVME adapter card to the NVME interface on the dual-purpose hard disk backplane, and plug the NVME hard disk interface full of NVME hard disks;
[0034] Write the NVME hard disk test program for the UEFI platform, name it disk.efi, edit the uefishell self-startup script startup.nsh, scan the available file system, automatically boot into the file system storing the test program through a test U disk mark file, and check whether it exists NVMEPASS mark file, if it does not exist, start calling disk.efi to test the NVME hard disk, if it exist...

Abstract
The present invention discloses a function test optimization method of a dual-use hard disk backplane of a server. The function test optimization method comprises the following steps: 1) a machine is started from a UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) shell; 2) the UEFI starts a script and guides the script into a test USB (Universal Serial Bus) flash disk; 3) the script is subjected to examination that whether an NVME (Non-volatile Memory Express) PASS marked file exists in the script; if not, an NVME hard disk starts to be tested, and the NVME PASS marked file is written if the test passes; if yes, an operation system is called to guide the file into the operating system for the test of the module function of a common hard disk; 4) if the test of the module function of the common hard disk passes, the function of the whole dual-use hard disk backplane is normal, the dual-use hard disk backplane is a good product, otherwise, the dual-use hard disk backplane is a defective product. Compared with the prior art, the function test optimization method solves the problem of long consumed time as the hard disk needs to be replaced in a shutdown state and the operating system needs to be started twice due to two parts of the existing test, thereby saving the testing time and the labor cost; moreover, the function test optimization method is high in degree of automation.
Description
technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of server hard disk backplane testing, in particular to a functional test optimization method for a server dual-purpose hard disk backplane. Background technique [0002] In the current manufacturing process of dual-purpose hard disk backplanes for servers, functional tests are generally required to check whether the backplane functions are normal. [0003] Because NVME hard disks and ordinary SATA / SAS hard disks adopt different interface standards, and the NVME module used for fault / location lights of ordinary SATA / SAS hard disks cannot be driven for functional testing, so the dual-purpose backplane functional test is to test both the NVME interface. , but also to measure the fault / locating lights of ordinary SATA / SAS hard disks, the factory divides the hard disk backplane into two parts for testing. And because the ordinary hard disk backplane has many functions, many tools used are only DOS, Windows, and Linux ver...
