Problems solved by technology

If DHCP dynamically assigns IP addresses, multiple sets of PXE services mean that multiple DHCP servers coexist in the test environment at the same time, causing other test servers to obtain IP addresses that may be confused, so that the pushed test operating system does not correspond to the platform, and the automatic installation fails.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of computers, and discloses a method and device for multiple platforms to share the same PXE server to automatically install an OS, and the method comprises the steps: obtaining an operating system mirror image file, placing the operating system mirror image file in a corresponding shared directory according to the platform to which the operating system mirror image file belongs, and generating a corresponding configuration file; the server to be tested is connected with the PXE server through the switch; acquiring a request signal of the to-be-tested server, and determining a platform to which the to-be-tested server belongs according to the IP address range of the to-be-tested server; according to the platform to which the to-be-tested server belongs, distributing a corresponding shared directory for the to-be-tested server to select; and after receiving the corresponding shared directory, the server to be tested selects the required mirror image file of the operating system for installation. Different platform servers are enabled to install the OS in one PXE server, the resource reuse rate is improved, management is simplified, and IP confusion is avoided. The technical problem that servers of different platforms cannot install an operating system in one PXE server is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of computers, and discloses a method and a device for automatically installing an OS by sharing the same PXE server on multiple platforms. Background technique [0002] At present, the mainstream Intel platform, Feiteng platform and Haiguang platform coexist, and the PXE installation and deployment OS for each platform needs to be tested. The existing technology cannot satisfy the automatic installation and deployment of using a set of PXE compatible with the above platforms. As many platforms exist, it is necessary to build a corresponding number of PXE environments, which takes time to build the environment and takes up more testing resources. At the same time, each corresponding set of PXE environment needs to have a DHCP service, and the coexistence of multiple DHCP services is easy to cause IP confusion and difficult to manage. [0003] In the current solution, the test motherboard is usually installed...
