System for managing high-level telecommunication computing construction frame and server long-distance control

Abstract

This invention discloses a kind of ATCA machine frame management system, which includes: Console, Box management controller for SMC, and the server boards which are set with the data transmission module KVM and the server system. The connection between the console and the SMC is through the net, while the one between the SMC and the data transmission module KVM is through the reinforced IPMB bus connection in which Y-Y connection is in use. The SMC is used to send the operation information on the keyboard and the mouse from the console to the related severs system through the IPMB bus connection. The data transmission module KVM is used to send the video data to the console through the IPMB bus connection. In addition, this invention also discloses a method to realize the long-distance control on the server. With this invention, no external KVM switches are needed, as the result, the space and the cost are reduced, and the confusion of the connection is escaped. It can also enhance the security and the stability of the system, and realize the unification of the management on the KVM user and the frame, which will reduce the cost and the difficult of the system maintenance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture (ATCA for short), in particular to an ATCA frame management system and a method for realizing remote control of a server. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the development of computer technology and network technology, the demand for remote control of servers on a centralized platform has become more and more urgent. It is under this urgent demand that KVM technology emerged as the times require. KVM is the abbreviation of Keyboard, Video and Mouse, and KVM technology is a technology used in the field of server remote control. The idea is to use a set of input / output devices, that is, a set of keyboards, monitors and mice, to Realize complete control and management of one or more servers, thereby achieving high manageability of the system and network, improving the work efficiency of managers, saving the area of ​​the computer room, and reducing the overall ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0010] First of all, the independent and external KVM switch increases the system cost and occupies a certain amount of space in the computer room;

[0011] Secondly, there are many connections between the server board and the KVM switch, resulting in complicated and messy connections and reducing the reliability of the system;

[0012] Finally, the user management of KVM and the existing ATCA chassis management are independent and unrelated to each other. Therefore, server management and maintenance need to be realized through two systems: the server remote control system and the ATCA chassis management system, resulting in system maintenance costs. high, difficult
