Problems solved by technology

[0009] In the above test methods, it is all about the short-term test of the fan. Can the high-speed rotation of the fan be maintained for a long time? Is it normal for the fan to run for a long time? Can the fans respond normally during long-term server operation? No solution is given in the existing test methods

Embodiment 1

[0039] Such as figure 1 As shown, a test method for monitoring the running state of a server fan provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0040] S1: Steps to keep the server powered on; the specific steps are as follows:

[0041] To ensure the power-on status of the server, use the OS command "date" to obtain the time, use ipmitool sdr elist|grep FAN to obtain the current fan status, and save the first acquisition time and current fan status in the present.txt file; read it every one minute, If the subsequent reading of the status of the fan changes, write the read time and current fan status to the present.txt file;

[0042] S2: The test steps of fan pressure response; the specific steps are as follows:

[0043] Use ipmitool raw 0x3c 0x2f 0x01 to set the fan speed to manual adjustment, use ipmitoolraw 0x3c 0x2d 0xff 0x64 to adjust the fan speed to 100%, and run it for 0.5 hours to test the performance of the fan. After the test is completed, use ipmitool ...

Embodiment 2

[0051] Such as figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a test system for monitoring the running status of server fans, including:

[0052] Server power-on status maintenance module 1, to ensure the server power-on status, use the OS command "date" to obtain the time, use ipmitool sdr elist|grep FAN to obtain the current fan status, and save the first acquisition time and current fan status into the present.txt file; Read once every minute. If the read status of the fan changes later, write the read time and current fan status to the present.txt file;

[0053] Fan pressure response test module 2, use ipmitool raw 0x3c 0x2f 0x01 to set the fan speed to manual adjustment, use ipmitool raw 0x3c 0x2d 0xff 0x64 to adjust the fan speed to 100%, run for 0.5 hours, test the performance of the fan, use it after the test is completed ipmitool raw 0x3c 0x2f 0x00 Set the fan speed to automatic adjustment, during which the time and fan running status are obtained every minute, and wri...

Abstract

The invention relates to a testing method and system for monitoring the running state of a server fan. The method comprises the following steps that S1, a server is kept in a startup state; S2, a fanpressure response is tested; S3, a temperature response is tested; S4, a running response is tested; and S5, a testing result is output.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of server monitoring, and in particular relates to a testing method and system for monitoring the running state of a server fan. Background technique [0002] A fan is an essential hardware facility for a server. Generally, a server is installed with multiple fans for use by the server. Servers are used to provide computing services. It is generally required to provide highly reliable services, so it has high requirements in terms of processing power, stability, reliability, security, scalability, and manageability. The fan is one of the most important items for whether the server can run with high performance and high reliability. The main function of the server fan is to speed up the air flow on the surface of the heat sink to cool the heating equipment and ensure the safe and stable operation of the server. The fan is one of the important parts of server heat dissipation, and its performance often play...
