Embodiment 1

[0053] Embodiment 1: The blade server location information acquisition unit acquires the slot number and the chassis number of the blade server from the ATCA chassis management unit. The positioning process of the blade server will be described in detail below in conjunction with the system shown in FIG. 3 .

[0054] Referring to FIG. 3 , it is a schematic structural diagram of the blade server positioning system according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0055] In this embodiment, the first data interface module in the blade server location information acquisition unit is sequentially connected to an intelligent platform management interface (Intelligent Platform Management Interface, IPMI) driver module, a BMC module, and an ATCA chassis management unit. The IPMI driver module provides an interface between the ATCA blade server location information acquisition unit and the BMC module, and is responsible for driving the Intelligent Platform Management Bus (...

Embodiment 2

[0062] Embodiment 2: The blade server location information acquiring unit acquires the slot number and the frame number of the blade server from the blade server location information configuration file. The positioning process of the blade server will be described in detail below in conjunction with the system shown in FIG. 4 .

[0063] Referring to FIG. 4 , it is a schematic structural diagram of a blade server positioning system according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

[0064] In this embodiment, the blade server location information acquisition unit is connected to the blade server location information configuration unit that stores the blade server slot number and chassis number. The slot number and chassis number are stored in the blade server location information configuration unit in the form of files. The slot number and shelf number in the blade server location information configuration file can be manually configured or written by other applicatio...

Embodiment 3

[0070] Embodiment 3: The blade server location information acquisition unit acquires the slot number of the blade server from the chassis management unit, and acquires the chassis number of the blade server from the blade server location information configuration unit. The positioning process of the blade server will be described in detail below in conjunction with the system shown in FIG. 5 .

[0071] Referring to FIG. 5 , it is a schematic structural diagram of a blade server positioning system according to a third embodiment of the present invention.

[0072] In this embodiment, the blade server location information acquisition unit is not only connected to the blade server location information configuration unit, but also connected through the IPMI driver module, the BMC module and the chassis management unit. The following describes the process of locating the location of the blade server when the blade server location information application unit requests the location of...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for positioning blade server, which comprises that: based on the position request of blade server, obtaining the groove number and frame number of server; using said numbers, positioning the blade server.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the communication field, in particular to a positioning method and a positioning system for a blade server in a telecommunication computing framework. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of server technology, there are more and more server applications based on Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture (ATCA). One chassis of the ATCA server can be inserted into multiple blade servers, and multiple chassis can be cascaded for use. When applications (such as software upgrades, system installation, information acquisition, etc.) Locate the exact location of the blade server. If the specific location of the blade server cannot be located, all applications cannot be processed automatically. Therefore, the location of the blade server under the ATCA architecture is particularly important. [0003] In an ATCA shelf, the shelf management unit stores the location information of the blade server, and the blade server...
