Embodiment 1

[0038] Such as figure 1 Shown, an embodiment of a method for testing FRU information consistency of the present invention, this embodiment comprises the following steps:

[0039] S1, write FRU information into a text file,

[0040] S2. Execute the script for refreshing the FRU information, and refresh the FRU information;

[0041] S3, comparing the refreshed FRU information with the FRU information in the text file, and judging whether the FRU information has been refreshed successfully.

[0042] In step S1, the FRU information has multiple contents, such as PN (product number, product name), PS (product serial, product serial number), PAT (product asset tag, product asset tag) and BM (board product, board product), etc. . In step S1, create a new text file xxx_FRU, and when there is FRU information that needs to be updated, write the content that needs to be updated into the xxx_FRU file.

[0043] In step S2, the FRU information is refreshed by starting the FRU informatio...

Embodiment 2

[0046] Such as figure 2 As shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, after the FRU information is refreshed successfully, obtain the current BMC version and customer id (user identification code), restart the BMC, read the FRU information at this time through ipmitool again, and compare the FRU information with the text Compare the FRU information in the file xxx_FRU to determine whether the FRU information is consistent. If they are consistent and display PASS, the test is successful; otherwise, display FAIL, which means the test fails.

Embodiment 3

[0048] Such as image 3 As shown, on the basis of Example 2, after verifying that the FRU information is consistent, according to the FRU information, call the BMC refresh tool to refresh the BMC. After the refresh, read the FRU information at this time through ipmitool again, and compare the FRU Compare the information with the FRU information in the text file xxx_FRU to determine whether the FRU information is consistent. If they are consistent, PASS is displayed, which means the test is successful; otherwise, FAIL is displayed, which means the test fails.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for testing consistency of FRU information. The method comprises the steps that the FRU information is written into a text file, and an FRU refreshing script is executed to refresh the FRU information; the refreshed FRU information is compared with the FRU information in the text file, and whether the FRU information is successfully refreshed is judged. According to the method, whether the FRU information is consistent can be judged by directly checking text file content, manual checking is avoided, and working efficiency and accuracy are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to a method for testing the consistency of FRU information. Background technique [0002] FRU (Field Replace Unit) is mostly used on large server equipment. FRU information includes product name (Product Number), machine serial number (Serial Number), etc., which is convenient for subsequent maintenance of various parts of the machine. [0003] FRU information can be written manually, but it is very inconvenient for subsequent checks or when the server needs to verify the FRU information during the process of refreshing the BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) and restarting the BMC. The serial number on the FRU is unique. When the factory or customer is upgrading or restarting the BMC, it is necessary to ensure that the serial number will not change. Manual inspection will be a waste of time. Contents of the invention [0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provid...
