Storage double-active link fault test method and apparatus

Abstract

The invention discloses a storage double-active link fault test method, applied to a monitoring host. The monitoring host is connected with a network switch deployed in a data center, the network switch is respectively connected with a front end service host, an FC switch and each rear end memory in the data center , the front end service host is further connected with each rear end memory throughthe FC switch; and the method comprises the following steps: performing link fault injection through the operation of the FC switch when a set test trigger condition is satisfied; and monitoring theoperation state of the front end service host to determine whether the link fault generates influence to the front end service host. By adoption of the technical solution provided by the embodiment ofthe invention, a problem can be discovered in time, and the corresponding problem is solved by technical means such as program modification and logic adjustment and the like, thereby improving the function stability of the data center and improving the overall performance. The invention further discloses a storage double-active link fault test apparatus, which has corresponding technical effects.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The technology described in this patented allows for better management control over servers that are connected across different networks or devices within their own organization's computer system. It monitors these connections from various sources like clients (FCoS) ports at one end of the server, links with another router called FSW), backend storages, and routers. When there is any issue where something affecting communication occurs during certain times, it triggers alarms indicating potential issues before they become apparent. This helps prevent failures caused by factors such as power loss or equipment malfunctions. Additionally, if some parts have been affected due to improper maintenance or installation, the alarm will be triggered automatically afterward. Overall, this technology enhances the functionality and reliability of data centers while ensuring efficient use thereof.

Problems solved by technology

This patented describes how faults occur when storing large amounts of data (such as backup) onto different servers connected via multiple connections with each server's own network). These failures may cause delays for customers who want their work done quickly due to delayed responses from remote clients. Therefore it needs to detect these issues early enough after shipment to avoid any negative effects such as reduced productivity caused by downtime maintenance costs.
