Abstract

The invention provides a method and device for achieving online batch refreshing of hard disk firmware by utilizing a Storcli toolkit of an RAID card manufacturer under Linux system and then combining with standard instructions under Linux system. According to the technical scheme, online batch upgrading is achieved through shell scripts and Storcli toolkit instructions. Firstly, parameters of an RAID array are obtained; then, hard disk firmware upgrading and upgrade succeeding confirmation are achieved through single-disk operating instructions and batch operating instructions. Online batch firmware upgrading can be simply, rapidly and safely performed at a testing stage and a production stage, the firmware upgrading time is greatly shortened, the working efficiency is improved, and the labor cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of firmware upgrade, in particular to a method for realizing online batch upgrade of hard disk firmware through a RAID card under a Linux system. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development and expansion of Inspur server industry, as the largest server supplier in China, the server market has covered various fields, especially mainstream fields such as finance and the Internet. With the rapid development of the Internet, the high security of information and the high reliability of the system As the main carrier of data storage, the stability and reliability of hard disks have been paid more and more attention. Due to the complexity and diversity of customer applications, it is inevitable that there will be Some customer applications have compatibility issues with the hard disk, so the hard disk must be upgraded with firmware to solve and optimize the problems. In this way, firmware upgrades...
