A method for automatic inspection and detection of reliability of large-scale offline archiving system

Abstract

A method for automatic inspection and detection of the reliability of a large-scale offline filing system of the present invention includes an energy consumption sensing module and a detection module. The energy consumption sensing module maintains an energy consumption sensing table and records the power-on and power-off states of physical devices. The physical device notifies the energy consumption sensing module of its power on / off state change through the network, and the energy consumption sensing module records the power on / off state of the physical device in the energy consumption sensing table. The energy consumption awareness table maintains the current power-on and power-off status of all physical devices and the time of the last status change, which can provide support for the global power-saving strategy; the detection module maintains the scan history table, records the scan history of physical devices and data, and Integrity, data consistency, and channel availability periodically check the system. The method of the invention is simple and effective, and at the same time of automatically and periodically scanning system hardware and data, the power-on and power-off operations of additional equipment are reduced as much as possible, and the original energy consumption requirements of the system are kept as much as possible.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of computer storage, which relates to a server cluster and offline archiving technique, and more particularly to an automatic inspection method for detecting a reliability of large-scale offline archiving systems, suitable for large-scale offline archiving scenarios. Background technique [0002] In a large environment of rapid development of Internet, Internet of Things, Cloud computing, and big data, companies will generate data that need to be archived every day. Due to the many scenes need to be online or offline analysis of historical archive data, the traditional tape archive cannot meet performance requirements. Therefore, using disk replacement magnetic bands into a better solution, in order to minimize high-power problems caused by long-term operation of large-scale physical devices, the industry has now proposed whether the control device is powered up and down and controlled by the control.

Problems solved by technology

Control device power-on and power-off technology can control the power-on and power-off of physical devices through hardware, which can realize remote control and unattended, and facilitate power-saving control of physical devices. However, the control range is a single physical node, and power-saving management of the entire cluster cannot be performed. ;MAID technology can control the working time of the disk, so that the disk can only be powered on when needed, and can be in a power-off state at other times to achieve the purpose of saving power. However, this technology can only control the disk, and it cannot control the entire Cluster for power saving control

Since the archive system is huge and the data needs to be kept for a long time, how to continuously ensure the reliability of physical equipment and archived data under the premise of energy saving as much as possible has become a problem that must be considered to ensure the long-term normal operation of the system
