Problems solved by technology

However, considering the situation that may occur in the actual use of customers, it is far from comprehensive and detailed to test according to the functions designed by the BIOS. The present invention provides a method for testing the server startup sequence. When the devices are all bootable devices , to test whether it can be booted from the "first priority boot device" set; To boot and start; in addition to this, the present invention also considers that the actual production process and the customer application process may require different startup methods, so the verification tests of warm boot, cold boot and AC boot are added, which is further effective The "Boot Order" function of the BIOS has been thoroughly verified, and its functional availability can be checked in advance during the R&D testing stage, providing reliable data for production and improving product competitiveness

Embodiment Construction

[0032] The method of the present invention: a method for testing the startup sequence of the server, performing forward verification and reverse verification on the bootable startup device of the server,

[0033] Described forward verification is that all bootable boot devices are set as boot boot devices, and booting is carried out according to the boot sequence set in the BIOS, to verify whether the boot is successful;

[0034] The reverse verification is that one of the bootable devices is set as the bootable device, and the other bootable devices are set as non-bootable bootable devices, and the bootable device is set as the lowest priority bootable device in the BIOS for booting The device boots and verifies whether the boot is successful.

[0035] In order to make the object, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with specific examples.

[0036] One BIOS provides...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for testing a server starting sequence and relates to the field of server testing. Forward verification and reverse verification are conducted on guidable starting devices of a server, the forward verification is used for setting the guidable starting device as a guidance staring device, and starting guidance is performed according to a starting sequence set in a BIOS, and whether starting succeeds or not is verified. The reverse verification is used for setting one guidable starting device as a guidance staring device and setting other guidable starting devices as non-guidable starting device, the guidance staring devices are set as a starting device with the lowest priority in the BIOS and start guidance, and whether starting succeeds or not is verified.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention discloses a testing method and relates to the field of server testing, in particular to a method for testing the starting sequence of a server. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of IT technology, traditional information services and increasingly powerful cloud computing services have higher and higher requirements for various functions of servers. As an important part of the server software, BIOS (Basic Input Output System) stores the most important basic input and output programs of the computer, the self-test program after power-on and the system self-starting program. It can read and write the specific details of the system settings from the CMOS. information. Its main function is to provide the lowest-level and most direct hardware setting and control for the server. There are many basic functions controlled by the BIOS, one of the more important functions is the setting function of "Boot Order". In diff...
