Abstract

The invention discloses a server, a hardware monitor system and the method of the server, the hardware monitor system. The server, the hardware monitor system and the method of the server, the hardware monitor system includes a first temperature value of a first temperature area is sensed through a first temperature sensor, and a second temperature value of a second temperature area is sensed through a second temperature sensor, and the second temperature value is read through a complex programmable logic controller. The complex programmable logic controller makes a temperature compensation to the second temperature value. A hardware controller reads the first temperature value and the second temperature value after temperature compensation, and controls the heat dissipation of a computer system according to the first temperature value and the second temperature value after temperature compensation. The server, the hardware monitor system and the method of the server, the hardware monitor system has the advantages of achieving temperature compensation of different temperature sensors and solving the problem that the temperature values of different temperature areas cannot be compensated alone in temperature in the prior art through sensing the temperature values of different temperature areas by a plurality of sensors, and through reading and updating the temperature values by the complex programmable logic controller.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a computer system, in particular to a server hardware monitoring system and a method thereof. Background technique

[0002] In the computer system, the hardware monitoring (HW Monitor) module monitors the temperature, voltage and fan speed of the computer system hardware. A server is an application branch of a computer, and the hardware monitoring function of its motherboard is usually implemented by a BMC (Basedboard Management Control, Baseboard Management Controller) chip.

[0003] However, in the process of server production and development, in order to meet the different needs of users, manufacturers often develop servers into multiple versions such as high-end and low-end, and the difference between these configurations is mainly in the aspects of hardware monitoring functions and hardware monitoring costs. big difference.

[0004] At present, in low-end servers, there are generally the following solutions for hardware ...

Embodiment Construction

[0106] In order to make the purpose, advantages and characteristics of the present invention clearer, the following in conjunction with the attached Figure 1~4 The hardware monitoring system and method thereof proposed by the present invention are further described in detail. It should be noted that all the drawings are in a very simplified form and use imprecise scales, and are only used to facilitate and clearly assist the purpose of illustrating the embodiments of the present invention.

[0107] figure 1 It is a structural block diagram of a hardware monitoring system according to an embodiment of the present invention. Such as figure 1 As shown, the hardware monitoring system 10 includes a hardware monitor (Hardware Monitor) 11 and a complex programmable logic controller (Complex Programmable Logic Device, CPLD) 12 . The hardware monitoring system 10 mainly monitors the heat dissipation of the computer system, such as the temperature of the mainboard of the server or o...
