Embodiment 1

[0042] Please refer to image 3 , the present embodiment provides a whole cabinet server management system, comprising: the server computing node is connected to the data network through the first port, and connected to the management network through the second port; the RMC network port is connected to the management network; the server BMC is connected to the RMC through the I2C bus , and the server BMC is also connected to the RMC through the USB bus.

[0043] The specific topology includes:

[0044] Two MAC addresses on the node BMC, one for the dedicated management network connection (purple) and one for the data network (green), both ports are output directly from the compute node;

[0045] A network MAC on the RMC for the dedicated management network connection (purple), output from the front panel.

[0046] RMC's I2C connects power supply, heat dissipation, IO modules and various computing nodes for low-speed signal communication;

[0047] The USB Host of RMC is con...

Abstract

The invention provides a whole cabinet server management system and a configuration method. According to the system, a server calculation node is connected with a data network through a first port, and is connected with a management network through a second port; an RMC network port is connected with the management network; a server BMC is connected with the RMC through an I2C bus, and the serverBMC is further connected with the RMC through a USB bus. According to the invention, a scheme of adding a network MAC to the BMC is realized, and a network topology structure between the RMC and the node BMC is solved. Two network topology structures at present are fused, and the networking requirements of different customers can be met by using the design scheme.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of servers, in particular to a server management system and configuration method for a complete cabinet. Background technique [0002] At present, the whole cabinet or multi-node server has a chassis / rack management unit RMC to manage the power supply, fan, and IO of the whole machine, and the rest are various computing nodes. A BMC on each computing node is responsible for out-of-band management of the node. [0003] Currently, only two physical MAC addresses are provided on the RMC and node BMC chips, one is used for the BMC dedicated management network interface (out-of-band management network interface), and the other is used for the data network interface (system OS network interface). Among them, the BMC dedicated network interface is a dedicated interface for BMC out-of-band management, which can only be used for BMC out-of-band management; the system data network interface is the network dat...
