Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of blade servers, and particularly relates to a hard disk anti-accidental destruction method for multi-blade server plug-in and plug-out blades. BACKGROUND

[0002] Multi-blade servers are widely used in large-scale computing and storage scenarios. However, when using multi-blade servers, frequent blade plug-in and plug-out operations can cause accidental destruction of hard disk data. Especially during hot plug-in or maintenance, accidental triggering of the destruction mechanism can cause serious data loss risk. The hard disk destruction mechanism of the traditional multi-blade server usually adopts an independent control mode, that is, a logic chip is added on the backplane of the whole machine, and each blade mainboard triggers the hard disk destruction operation through its own destruction signal line. The destruction button signal on the panel of the whole machine and the destruction signals of all blades are separately connected to the logic chip, and the destruction function is controlled through the logic chip. When a blade is not powered on (such as in a maintenance or replacement state), its destruction signal line can present a low level state. If plug-in and plug-out operations are performed on other blades at this time, the low level signal can interfere with the destruction control logic of other blades through the shared signal line, causing accidental triggering of hard disk destruction. For example, in some multi-blade servers, the whole machine needs a one-key hard disk destruction function, and the destruction signals of all blades are connected together through the backplane of the whole machine, and then the destruction of the hard disks of all blades is controlled through a destruction button on the panel of the whole machine. However, the blades usually have hot plug-in requirements. When slowly plugging in blade A, the destruction signal pin on the connector of blade A is connected to the backplane first. At this time, blade A is not powered on, and the destruction signal will cause a leakage, which will instantaneously pull down the destruction signals of other blades for a period of time, triggering the destruction of the hard disks of other blades.

[0003] At the present stage, in the related art, there is a technical problem of accidental destruction of hard disks of a multi-blade server caused by the low level signal of a blade not powered on during blade plug-in and plug-out. SUMMARY

[0011] In a possible implementation, the hard disk anti-accidental destruction method when multiple-blade server blades are plugged in or unplugged further comprises the following processing: the blade mainboard has a hot plug function, when the blade plugging operation of the blade mainboard that is not powered on is performed, the low-level destruction signal is isolated through the corresponding diode, so that the destruction control logic of the blade mainboard that is powered on is not mistakenly triggered.

[0012] In a possible implementation, the method further performs the following processing: when the destruction control button is not triggered, the destruction control signal bus remains at a high level, and a low-level signal is blocked from entering by the diode.

Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as understood by those skilled in the art of the technology to which the application belongs. The terms used herein are only for the purpose of describing the embodiments of the application.

[0023] An anti-accidental destruction method for hard disks when a multi-blade server blade is plugged in is provided in an embodiment of the application, as shown in the method comprises: Figure 1

[0024] Step S100, a destruction signal port is set for each blade mainboard in the server, and a diode is connected in series at the destruction signal port, the positive electrode of the diode is connected to the destruction signal line of the corresponding blade mainboard, and the negative electrode of the diode is uniformly connected to the destruction control signal bus.

[0025] ​Preferably, the server is provided with a dedicated hardware interface (such as a GPIO pin) on each blade motherboard for outputting a hard disk destruction control signal; the destruction signal line is a signal line leading out from the internal circuit of the blade motherboard and connected to the destruction signal port for transmitting the destruction instruction (usually active at low level, i.e. triggering destruction when outputting low level); the destruction control signal bus is a common signal line connected to the cathodes of all diodes and finally connected to the output end of the destruction control button, when the destruction button is pressed, the bus is pulled low (low level), and all blade motherboards execute hard disk destruction after detecting the low level signal, realizing one-key global destruction and improving operation reliability. A diode (unidirectional conduction element) is connected in series between the destruction signal port of each blade motherboard and the destruction control signal bus, the anode of the diode is connected to the destruction signal line of the blade motherboard (i.e. the destruction signal output end of the local blade), and the cathode of the diode is uniformly connected to the destruction control signal bus (i.e. the global destruction signal line shared by all blades), ensuring that during normal destruction, the button is pressed → the bus is pulled low → the diode is forward-biased → the blade motherboard detects low level → destruction is triggered, and when the blade is not powered on, the low level of the blade not powered on cannot pass through the diode in reverse direction to affect the bus, avoiding false triggering; wherein the diode can be replaced by an electronic switching device with unidirectional conduction characteristics for realizing equivalent destruction signal isolation function.

[0026] Step S200, connecting the output end of the destruction control button of the server to the destruction control signal bus for triggering unified destruction control operation.

[0027] Preferably, the destruction control button is a hardware button (usually located on the front panel or management module of the server) specially used for triggering global hard disk destruction operation, when the destruction control button is pressed, a low level signal is outputted and broadcasted to all blade motherboards through the destruction control signal bus, realizing one-key synchronous destruction, wherein the output pin of the destruction control button is directly connected to the destruction control signal bus, when the button is pressed, the output end pulls the bus to low level (such as ground), forming a low level signal, the destruction control signal bus is pulled low, and all blade motherboards detect the low level of the bus through the diode, the destruction control circuit (such as GPIO input) of each blade motherboard recognizes the valid signal, and triggers local hard disk destruction operation (such as erasing firmware, power off or physical destruction); when released, the bus is restored to high level (default high level) through the pull-up resistor, and all blade motherboards are in standby state and will not trigger destruction by mistake.

[0028] Step S300, in the case that any blade motherboard is not powered on, when performing the blade plugging operation of the blade motherboard not powered on, the low level destruction signal of the corresponding blade motherboard is prevented from affecting the destruction control signal bus through the corresponding diode.

[0029] Preferably, when a certain blade mainboard in the server is not powered on (such as in a maintenance, replacement or failure state), its destruction signal port may present a low level state due to circuit suspension or internal pull-down resistance. A diode is connected in series to the destruction signal port of each blade mainboard, and the one-way conduction characteristic of the diode is used to realize signal isolation when performing the blade plugging operation of the unpowered blade mainboard. When the destruction signal line of the unpowered blade outputs a low level, the diode is in a reverse blocking state because the anode of the diode is connected to the local signal line of the blade (low level) and the cathode is connected to the bus (default high level), thereby effectively blocking the low level destruction signal from interfering with the destruction control signal bus. Only when the destruction control button is actively pressed and the bus is forcibly pulled low, the diode will conduct in a forward direction to transmit the destruction instruction to each blade mainboard, which can not only ensure efficient execution of normal destruction operation, but also prevent the risk of accidental destruction caused by blade plugging operation, thereby significantly improving the security and reliability of data management of the multi-blade server.

[0030] Step S400, when performing the hard disk destruction operation, the destruction control button is pressed to transmit the low level destruction signal to the destruction control signal bus through the diode, thereby triggering all blade mainboards to perform hard disk destruction.

[0031] Preferably, as shown in Figure 2 When performing the hard disk destruction operation, the operator presses the destruction control button on the server, at which time the output end of the destruction control button forcibly pulls the level of the destruction control signal bus low. Since the destruction signal port of each blade mainboard is connected to the bus through a diode (the anode of the diode is connected to the local destruction signal line of the blade, and the cathode is connected to the bus), the low level destruction signal is simultaneously transmitted to the destruction signal receiving circuit of each blade mainboard through the one-way conduction of all diodes. After detecting the valid low level destruction signal, each blade mainboard immediately starts the preset hard disk destruction program (such as data erasing, firmware locking or physical destruction operation, etc.). The one-way conduction characteristic of the diode ensures one-way transmission of the destruction signal and prevents signal backflow interference. The destruction control signal bus structure realizes synchronous response of all blades, ensures that all hard disk data can be quickly and completely destroyed in an emergency, meets the timeliness requirement of data security protection, and ensures the reliability of the operation through hardware level circuit design.

[0032] Preferably, the hard disk destruction control precision operation is realized through multi-stage hardware cooperation. When the destruction button is triggered, a low-level signal is transmitted synchronously to all blade mainboards through a bus. Each blade receives the destruction instruction through a series of Schottky diodes (including diode 1, diode 2 to diode n). The destruction signal line of each blade is connected to the positive electrode of the diode, and the negative electrode of the diode is connected to the destruction control bus. A voltage comparator (including voltage comparator 1, voltage comparator 2 to voltage comparator n) monitors the potential difference between the two ends of the diode in real time. Specifically, in the normal working state, all diodes maintain the one-way conduction characteristic to ensure accurate transmission of the destruction signal. When a blade (such as blade 2) is in an unpowered state, the corresponding diode 2 blocks the reverse interference, and the voltage comparator 2 synchronously detects the abnormal state, thereby realizing synchronous destruction control of all hard disks (hard disk 1, hard disk 2 to hard disk n) and ensuring the safety and reliability of the operation.

[0033] Further, the low-level destruction signal is a level signal of 0V to 3.3V.

[0034] Further, the diode includes a Schottky diode.

[0035] Further, the Schottky diode is of RB551V-30 model.

[0036] Preferably, the Schottky diode has an ultra-low forward voltage drop (0.2-0.3V). Compared with ordinary silicon diodes (0.6-0.7V), the Schottky diode has smaller voltage loss when conducting, ensuring that the low-level destruction signal (such as 0V) output by the blade mainboard can be transmitted to the bus without attenuation, avoiding misjudgment caused by insufficient signal amplitude. Moreover, the metal-semiconductor structure of the Schottky diode eliminates the charge storage effect of the PN junction diode, and can respond instantaneously to the triggering action of the destruction button, meeting the millisecond-level time limit requirement of server emergency destruction. For example, when a blade is hot-plugged under abnormal 12V power supply, the destruction signal line thereof may generate a noise voltage of -5V to +5V. The Schottky diode of RB551V-30 model can reliably cut off reverse interference and quickly conduct with a voltage drop of 0.3V when actively pulling down the bus, balancing safety isolation and signal fidelity.

[0037] Further, the destruction control button is arranged on the whole machine panel and is used for uniformly controlling the destruction operation of the plurality of blade mainboards.

[0038] Preferably, the destruction control button is installed as a physical emergency destruction switch in a dedicated security area of the server main panel, directly connected to the destruction control signal bus through a dedicated line, forming a star topology with the destruction circuits of all blade mainboards, and adopting an anti-misoperation mechanical structure design, such as a physical protective cover (which needs to be flipped to operate) and a two-stage pressing mechanism (unlocked first and then triggered), when the operator presses the button, the destruction control signal bus level is directly pulled low, the low-level destruction signal is transmitted to the destruction signal receiving circuit of each blade mainboard through the one-way conduction of the Schottky diode (positive electrode connected to the local destruction signal line of the blade, negative electrode connected to the bus) connected in series on each blade mainboard, ensuring that the destruction signals received by all blade mainboards have high synchronicity.

[0039] Further, a multi-blade server hard disk anti-misoperation destruction method when plugging in or out a blade also includes connecting the negative electrodes of all the diodes to form a common control node; and connecting the common control node with the output end of the destruction control button.

[0040] Preferably, the destruction control signals of all blade mainboards are unified through diodes, specifically, the destruction signal output end of each blade mainboard is connected through the positive electrode of a Schottky diode, while the negative electrodes of all diodes are concentratedly connected to a common circuit node (i.e. common control node), which is then directly connected with the output pin of the destruction control button, thereby forming a star topology signal transmission network, through the centralized control of the common node, global synchronization of the destruction signal can be realized, ensuring that all blade mainboards can receive the destruction instruction at the same time reference (error <1ms), and at the same time, by using the one-way conduction characteristic of the diode, it can not only ensure that the signal can be transmitted to each blade without attenuation when the button is triggered, but also effectively isolate the reverse interference signal that may be generated by the unpowered blade.

[0041] Further, a multi-blade server hard disk anti-misoperation destruction method when plugging in or out a blade also includes that the blade mainboard has hot plug function, when the unpowered blade mainboard is being plugged in or out, the low-level destruction signal is isolated through the corresponding diode, so that the destruction control logic of the powered-on blade mainboard is not mis-triggered.

[0042] Preferably, the blade mainboard has hot plug function, when a certain blade mainboard is in unpowered state (such as maintenance replacement or fault handling) and is being plugged in or out, a low-level signal is generated at its destruction signal port, at this time, the Schottky diode connected in series on the destruction signal line automatically blocks the propagation of the abnormal low-level signal to the common destruction control bus by virtue of its one-way conduction characteristic, so that the destruction control logic of the running powered-on blade mainboard is not mis-triggered, and the destruction control circuit is completely unaffected, and its destruction logic maintains a stable standby state, thereby perfectly balancing the maintenance flexibility and data destruction reliability of the multi-blade server.

[0043] Further, the hard disk anti-accidental destruction method when a multi-blade server blade is plugged in or unplugged further comprises: when the destruction control button is not triggered, the destruction control signal bus is kept at a high level, and a low-level signal is blocked from entering by the diode.

[0044] Preferably, the destruction control signal bus is kept at a high level by a pull-up resistor in a normal state (i.e., when the destruction button is not pressed), wherein the default high level of the destruction control signal bus is formed by reverse bias of a Schottky diode connected in series on each blade mainboard, and the reverse leakage current thereof is strictly controlled at a microampere level to effectively block a low-level interference signal that may be generated by a blade that is not powered on; and when any normally operating blade mainboard actively outputs a destruction signal (low level), the forward conduction characteristic of the diode can ensure that the destruction instruction is transmitted to the bus without loss. By normal isolation and trigger conduction, the operation freedom of hot maintenance is realized, and the absolute reliability of the data destruction instruction is ensured.

[0045] Further, the hard disk anti-accidental destruction method when a multi-blade server blade is plugged in or unplugged further comprises: connecting a voltage comparator in parallel with the anode and cathode of the diode, and using the voltage comparator to compare the voltages of the anode and cathode of the diode, and if a preset threshold is met, an abnormal blade plugging warning is reported.

[0046] Preferably, an intelligent blade state monitoring component is constructed by connecting a high-precision voltage comparator in parallel with the input / output end of the diode, and the voltage comparator is used to collect the voltages of the anode and cathode of the diode in real time and compare the voltages of the anode and cathode of the diode, and if a preset threshold is met, i.e., when it is detected that the forward voltage drop exceeds the conduction threshold of the Schottky diode or abnormal reverse leakage occurs, it indicates that there may be poor blade plugging contact, abnormal power supply, or line failure, etc., and an early warning mechanism is triggered immediately, including local alarm by the onboard LED indicator, sending an alarm event to the baseboard management control center, and generating a log record with a time stamp in the management interface, so as to ensure the original anti-accidental destruction function while adding preventive maintenance capability.

[0047] Further, the hard disk anti-accidental destruction method when a multi-blade server blade is plugged in or unplugged further comprises: performing health testing on all diodes within a preset period, establishing a health state data table, and using the health state data table to manage replacement of the diodes.

[0048] Preferably, the health status of all diodes is intelligently managed by a preset periodic full-automatic diagnosis mechanism. Specifically, the Schottky diodes of all blades are automatically tested for health every maintenance period (e.g., every 24 hours), i.e., detection of key electrical characteristic parameters such as forward conduction voltage drop and reverse leakage current, comparison with factory nominal parameters to obtain test results, and automatic recording to generate a health status data table containing the serial number of each diode, cumulative working time, forward voltage drop drift value, reverse leakage current trend, and other key indicators. Finally, the health status data table is used for diode replacement management, for example, when the forward voltage drop of a certain diode exceeds the threshold or the performance degradation rate is abnormal, the faulty diode position is intuitively located and a pre-maintenance work order is generated for replacement, ensuring data destruction safety while significantly improving operation and maintenance efficiency.

[0049] The above detailed description does not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present application.

In some embodiments, multi-task processing and parallel processing are possible or can be advantageous.
