Embodiment Construction

[0020] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] as attached figure 1 with 2 As shown, a blade server-based method of the present invention to realize easy plug-in of fan board modules includes the following steps: (1) Firstly, split the fan tray into fan board modules of multiple nodes, and the fan board module Groups are controlled through another separate fan control backplane;

[0022] (2) Then, connect the fan board module of each group of computing nodes to the computing board through the fan control backplane in step (1); the fan board module is provided with a fan interface, and the fan interface is connected to the fan control backplane through a connector Connection; the fan interface accepts TACH, PWM, LEDcontrol and Present signals, PWM is used to adjust the fan speed, TACH feeds back the fan speed information, when the fan is unplugged, the Present is pulled high to noti...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method for enabling fan board modules to be easily pluggable on basis of a blade server, and belongs to maintenance methods of fan modules. The present invention aims at solving the technical problem that a fan control tray is not easy to disassemble and maintain due to the fan control tray is integrated with a plurality of fan modules. The method according to the technical scheme structurally comprises the flowing steps of (1) first, disassembling a fan tray into fan board modules corresponding to a plurality of nodes, the fan board module group being controlled by another individual fan control backboard; (2) then, connecting the fan board modules of each group of calculating nodes to a computing board through the fan control backboard in the step (1); and (3) controlling the fan boards by a control chip on the fan control backboard through IO signals, disposing LED lamps to display fan status, and transmitting information with a system management board SMC through an I2C bus, rotation speeds of the fans being controlled by6 the SMC.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a maintenance method for a fan module, in particular to a method for realizing easy pluggability of a fan board module based on a blade server. Background technique [0002] The increase of computing nodes, IO nodes, and storage nodes of blade servers and cloud servers has higher and higher requirements for system stability and ease of maintenance. As an important part of the system, fans are easy to maintain and redundant design The requirements are getting higher and higher. [0003] The traditional fan board is generally a fan tray board, the fans are assembled on a fan control tray, and two or more fan trays are inserted into the chassis as a whole. When maintenance is required, the entire fan tray needs to be removed, and multiple fans are used simultaneously If it is removed, there will be greater requirements for system heat dissipation. Because the fan control tray integrates multiple fan modules, it is not easy to di...
