Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of industrial testing, and in particular to a method for testing a complete server. Background Art

[0002] The server is used for data collection and transmission. Due to various factors such as the different application environments of the server and the various production environments, the server may not meet the design / standard / function requirements. Therefore, before the server leaves the factory, its components and the whole need to be tested to verify whether it meets the design / standard requirements. Therefore, testing the server is one of the most important ways to ensure product quality.

[0003] Therefore, how to efficiently and quickly test the completed servers and ensure that the products can adapt to the application environment is a problem that current technicians need to solve. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a method for testing a server, comprising the following steps:

[0005] Step 1: Obtain the server model and server production parameters of the completed server. According to the obtained server model, obtain the server standard parameters of the corresponding server model from the cloud data server, compare the server production parameters with the server standard parameters, and proceed to step 2 if they are consistent.

[0006] Step 2: Perform standard test on the server. If the server passes the test, proceed to step 4; otherwise, proceed to step 3.

[0007] Step 3: Obtain the fault type that failed the test, troubleshoot the server components, and proceed to step 4;

[0008] Step 4: Get the server destination information, get the cooling mode in the server standard parameters according to the destination information, perform performance and cooling tests on the server according to the cooling mode, get the operating parameters of the server corresponding to the cooling mode, and transmit the obtained server operating parameters to the server standard parameters of the corresponding server model in the cloud data server to complete the server test.

[0009] Furthermore, the comparison of the server production parameters with the server standard parameters includes: component parameter comparison, each component is assigned a unique characteristic value, after the server production is completed, the characteristic values ​​of all components of the server are obtained, and the server production parameters are obtained, and the component characteristic values ​​in the server production parameters are compared with the component characteristic values ​​in the server standard parameters of the corresponding server model. If they are completely consistent, the comparison test passes.

[0010] Furthermore, the testing of the server element includes:

[0011] S1, obtain the production completion rate of the servers in the same batch. If the production completion rate is greater than the set production completion rate threshold, the production equipment is working normally and proceed to step 3. Otherwise, it is a production equipment failure and the production equipment is fault-detected and eliminated.

[0012] S2: Divide the same batch of servers from which the incomplete servers are excluded into multiple test groups according to the standard production duration, obtain the server qualification rate of each test group, and perform performance tests on the test groups whose qualification rate is greater than the set qualification rate threshold; then proceed to step 5; perform secondary tests on the test groups whose qualification rate is not greater than the set qualification rate, and then proceed to S3;

[0013] S3, obtain the production completion rate of the test group whose pass rate is not greater than the set pass rate. If the production completion rate is greater than the set production completion rate threshold, perform server screening to select fault-free servers and enter step four; if the production completion rate is not greater than the set production completion rate threshold, determine that the server in the test group is an accident product.

[0014] Further, the heat dissipation mode in the standard parameters of the server is obtained according to the destination information, and the performance and heat dissipation test of the server is performed according to the heat dissipation mode, and the heat dissipation mode includes a water cooling mode and an air cooling mode;

[0015] If it is a water cooling mode, then under the standard operating parameters of the cooling module, the server runs the test task, and the temperature and temperature rise rate obtained during the server running the test task are within the set thresholds. In this case, the operating parameters of the server in the water cooling mode are the standard operating parameters of the cooling module. Otherwise, the coolant flow rate and cooling power of the cooling module are adjusted so that the temperature and temperature rise rate during the server running the test task are within the set thresholds. The adjusted coolant flow rate and cooling power are the operating parameters of the server in the water cooling mode.

[0016] If it is air cooling mode, pre-adjust the air cooling module power according to the ambient temperature, and the server runs the test task. The temperature and temperature rise rate during the server test task are obtained. If they are both within the set thresholds, the operating parameters of the server in air cooling mode are the pre-adjusted air cooling module power. Otherwise, adjust the operating power of the air cooling module so that the temperature and temperature rise rate during the server test task are both within the set thresholds. The adjusted air cooling module power is the operating parameter of the server in air cooling mode.

[0017] The beneficial effect of the present invention is that through the technical solution provided by the present invention, standard testing can be carried out on the completed servers, and testing can be adapted to different product application areas, and corresponding adjustments can be made so that the products can be suitable for different areas, thereby improving the application scope of the products.

[0024] The features and performance of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, a method for testing a server includes the following steps:

[0026] Step 1: Obtain the server model and server production parameters of the completed server. According to the obtained server model, obtain the server standard parameters of the corresponding server model from the cloud data server, compare the server production parameters with the server standard parameters, and proceed to step 2 if they are consistent.

[0027] Step 2: Perform standard test on the server. If the server passes the test, proceed to step 4; otherwise, proceed to step 3.

[0028] Step 3: Obtain the fault type that failed the test, troubleshoot the server components, and proceed to step 4;

[0029] Step 4: Get the server destination information, get the cooling mode in the server standard parameters according to the destination information, perform performance and cooling tests on the server according to the cooling mode, get the operating parameters of the server corresponding to the cooling mode, and transmit the obtained server operating parameters to the server standard parameters of the corresponding server model in the cloud data server to complete the server test.

[0030] The comparison of the server production parameters with the server standard parameters includes: component parameter comparison, each component is assigned a unique characteristic value, after the server is produced, the characteristic values ​​of all components of the server are obtained to obtain the server production parameters, and the component characteristic values ​​in the server production parameters are compared with the component characteristic values ​​in the server standard parameters of the corresponding server model. If they are completely consistent, the comparison test passes.

[0031] The testing of the server element includes:

[0032] S1, obtain the production completion rate of the servers in the same batch. If the production completion rate is greater than the set production completion rate threshold, the production equipment is working normally and proceed to step 3. Otherwise, it is a production equipment failure and the production equipment is fault-detected and eliminated.

[0033] S2: Divide the same batch of servers from which the incomplete servers are excluded into multiple test groups according to the standard production duration, obtain the server qualification rate of each test group, and perform performance tests on the test groups whose qualification rate is greater than the set qualification rate threshold; then proceed to step 5; perform secondary tests on the test groups whose qualification rate is not greater than the set qualification rate, and then proceed to S3;

[0034] S3, obtain the production completion rate of the test group whose pass rate is not greater than the set pass rate. If the production completion rate is greater than the set production completion rate threshold, perform server screening to select fault-free servers and enter step four; if the production completion rate is not greater than the set production completion rate threshold, determine that the server in the test group is an accident product.

[0035] The heat dissipation mode in the standard parameters of the server is obtained according to the destination information, and the performance and heat dissipation test of the server is performed according to the heat dissipation mode, wherein the heat dissipation mode includes a water cooling mode and an air cooling mode;

[0036] If it is a water cooling mode, then under the standard operating parameters of the cooling module, the server runs the test task, and the temperature and temperature rise rate obtained during the server running the test task are within the set thresholds. In this case, the operating parameters of the server in the water cooling mode are the standard operating parameters of the cooling module. Otherwise, the coolant flow rate and cooling power of the cooling module are adjusted so that the temperature and temperature rise rate during the server running the test task are within the set thresholds. The adjusted coolant flow rate and cooling power are the operating parameters of the server in the water cooling mode.

[0037] If it is air cooling mode, pre-adjust the air cooling module power according to the ambient temperature, and the server runs the test task. The temperature and temperature rise rate during the server test task are obtained. If they are both within the set thresholds, the operating parameters of the server in air cooling mode are the pre-adjusted air cooling module power. Otherwise, adjust the operating power of the air cooling module so that the temperature and temperature rise rate during the server test task are both within the set thresholds. The adjusted air cooling module power is the operating parameter of the server in air cooling mode.

[0042] The component tests include:

[0043] By obtaining information such as the model, capacity, quantity, slot location, etc. of memory, hard disk, CPU, and external card, and comparing them with the standard parameters of the server: if all are consistent, output OK to the log; if not, output fail information to the log. If the log outputs fail, it means that the existing server hardware configuration is different from the configuration in the manufacturing system. It is necessary to check whether the hardware installation is consistent with the production management system or the hardware fails and cannot be identified and needs to be replaced;

[0044] Use the fio open source tool to perform performance testing on the hard disk: 1. Get the SN, slot and drive letter information of all hard disks in the server. 2. Send fio stress performance test to the hard disk (fio--name=myjob_{sdname}--filename={sdname}--ioengine=sg--direct=1--bs=4k--rw=randrw--iodepth=32--rwmixread=0--smr_disk=1--runtime={duration_time}--time_based--norandommap--group_reporting>{sn}_log.txt 2>&1') 3. Check whether the test results have passed the fio test. If the test values ​​are all met, output OK to the log; if there are fail items, output the faiI information to the log. If the log outputs fail, it means that the disk read and write performance is faulty and the hard disk needs to be replaced;
