Method and system for achieving intelligent recognition for fans of different types

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and system for achieving intelligent recognition for fans of different types and belongs to the technical field of server heat dissipation. The method for achieving intelligent recognition for the fans of different types comprises the steps that a single-motor fan and a dual motor fan use a same fan terminal, a first revolving speed signal bit and a second revolving speed signal bit are arranged on the fan terminal, the first revolving speed signal bit is used by the single-motor fan, the first revolving speed signal bit and the second revolving speed signal bit are used by the dual motor fan at the same time, different I2C addresses are used by the first revolving speed signal bit and the second revolving speed signal bit of a same fan terminal, and the I2C address of the second revolving speed signal bit of the fan terminal is independently managed by a BMC management program. The method for achieving intelligent recognition for the fans of different types is capable of judging the type of the fan conveniently, calling a corresponding fan regulating strategy, reducing workload increased by artificial recognition and reducing screening missing risks of corresponding recognition codes, and has a good popularization and application value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of server heat dissipation, and specifically provides a method and system for realizing intelligent identification of different types of fans. Background technique [0002] Compared with traditional computers, servers have better scalability, ease of use, and ease of management, and are widely used by large enterprises. With the further development of the economy and business needs, users have higher and higher requirements for the performance of the server, and correspondingly optimize the various hardware functions of the server. With the improvement of server performance, the server generates more heat during operation. In order to ensure the normal operation of the server, it is the most important thing to discharge the generated heat in time. The fan plays an important role in the heat dissipation process of the server. . [0003] General-purpose 2U servers mainly use 80mm side-length fans, which are ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The performance of different types of fans is different, so the corresponding fan control strategy needs to be adjusted accordingly, and the same fan control strategy cannot be used

In the existing technology, the fan type is manually identified and the identification code is manually input to call the fan control strategy. This method needs to increase the workload of the production line, and there is a risk of missing the identification code.
