Problems solved by technology

[0002] During the development process of the server, in order to ensure the normal upgrade and maintenance of the subsequent BIOS, it is necessary to perform a refresh test on the BIOS FW. The current test method is generally to manually copy the test tools and FW files to the local system of the test machine, and then Execute the refresh test of upgrading and upgrading. Since the system must be restarted after the BIOS FW is refreshed to take effect, performing the test on the local system cannot guarantee that the system can restart normally after refreshing the BIOS FW. If you encounter problems and cannot enter the system normally, the entire test will be interrupted and cannot To continue, it is necessary to manually check the test status and judge the final test result. This method is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also prone to mistakes or misjudgments caused by manual repeated operations for a long time, resulting in imprecise test results.

Embodiment Construction

[0030] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention, the following will briefly introduce the accompanying drawings that need to be used in the embodiments. Obviously, the accompanying drawings in the following description are only some embodiments of the present invention. For Those of ordinary skill in the art can also obtain other drawings based on these drawings without making creative efforts.

[0031] The present invention proposes a remote BIOS upgrade and upgrade automatic test method, see for example figure 1 The flow chart of the method shown includes:

[0032] Step 1, copy the script, refresh tool and BIOS FW file used for the test to the remote control machine;

[0033] Preferably, the BIOS FW file is two BIOS FW files, and corresponds to a high version number and a low version number respectively;

[0034] Preferably, the test script is Fun_BIOS_upgrade.sh, and the BIOS refresh tool is afulnx_64;

Abstract

the invention discloses an automatic remote bios (basic input / output system) upgrading / degrading refresh testing method which comprises the following steps: automatically deploying testing scripts, testing tools and bios fw files into a testing machine system by a remote controller through ssh; remotely executing the testing scripts; remotely monitoring states of a machine to be tested by the remote controller in modes of ping and ssh; and automatically judging testing results by analyzing testing logs. by adopting the method, artificial tool copy and testing machine state checking are not needed, problems in testing can be found in time, the labor and the time can be saved, errors caused by repeated artificial operation are also avoided, and great convenience can be brought to research and development testing, production and later service and maintenance.
