[0050] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0051] With the development of server technology, there are more and more types of hardware devices installed in current servers, the speed of each hardware device is getting higher and higher, and the functions are more complex. It is inevitable that some hardware devices will have various faults during the boot process or operation. In the related art, when a hardware device fails, the basic input and output system of the server usually returns the fault information and logical location information of the hardware device to the baseboard management controller. For example, for PCIe devices (Peripheral Component Interconnect express, a high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard), the basic input and output system generally returns the fault information and BDF number (Bus, Device, Function) of the PCIe device to the baseboard management controller. However, the logical location information is difficult to reflect the actual physical location of the hardware device, which is not conducive to the operation and maintenance personnel to troubleshoot the fault of the hardware device. Moreover, it is difficult for the operation and maintenance personnel to compare the hardware device positions one by one in the server according to the preset hardware design topology diagram, and it is also difficult to achieve a high troubleshooting efficiency.

[0052] In view of this, in order to solve the technical problem of how to improve the convenience for operation and maintenance personnel to troubleshoot hardware faults, the present invention can provide a fault information query method, which can set a corresponding information list for the slot position, and can record the logical position fault information corresponding to the hardware device connected to the slot position in the information list, and can paste an identification mark for accessing the information list at the slot position of the server, so as to facilitate users to troubleshoot hardware device faults.

[0053] For easier understanding, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flowchart of a fault information query method provided by an embodiment of the present invention, the method is applied to a baseboard management controller and may include:

[0054] S101. Determine a slot position in a server and generate an information list for the slot position; wherein a corresponding identification mark is pasted at the slot position of the server.

[0055] In this embodiment, the baseboard management controller can first set an information list for each slot position in the server, so as to use the information list to save the relevant information corresponding to the hardware device inserted into the slot position. In addition, corresponding identification tags can be pasted on each slot position of the server for accessing the above information list. The identification tag can be identified by scanning. When the operation and maintenance personnel use the query device to scan the identification tag, the query device can parse the identification tag, generate a query request to access the information list, and send the query request to the baseboard management controller to access the above information list.

[0056] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the method of generating the identification mark, nor does it limit the subject that generates the identification mark, as long as it can ensure that the query device can access the information list of the corresponding slot position when scanning and parsing the identification mark. For example, the baseboard management controller can generate a network link (such as URL, Uniform Resource Locator) for the information list and convert the network link into an identification mark. In this way, when the query device scans the identification mark, it can automatically generate a query request to access the network link, thereby accessing the information list based on the query request.

[0057] Based on this, the method may further include:

[0058] Step 11: Generate a network link for the information list;

[0059] Step 12: Convert the network link into the identification mark, so that the query device generates a query request for accessing the network link by identifying the identification mark.

[0060] It should also be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific type of the identification mark, and it can be a QR code, barcode, etc. Since the QR code has a small area and is easy to paste, the network link can be converted into a QR code and the QR code is used as the above identification mark.

[0061] Based on this, converting the network link into the identification mark may include:

[0062] Step 21: Convert the network link into a QR code, and use the QR code as the identification mark.

[0063] Furthermore, since the information list is mainly used to store relevant information corresponding to the hardware device connected to the slot position, before generating the information list, it can be determined whether the slot position is connected to the hardware device, and only generate the information list for the slot position that has been connected to the hardware device, thereby saving resources.

[0064] Based on this, generating an information list for the slot position may include:

[0065] Step 31: Determine whether the hardware device is inserted into the slot; if yes, proceed to step 32; if no, proceed to step 33.

[0066] Step 32: Generate the information list for the slot position.

[0067] Step 33: Do not generate the information list for the slot position.

[0068] S102: Acquire the logical position of the hardware device connected to the slot position, establish a corresponding relationship between the slot position and the logical position, and save the corresponding relationship to the information list of the slot position.

[0069] In this step, the baseboard management controller can obtain the logical information corresponding to the hardware device connected to the slot position, establish a corresponding relationship between the slot position and the logical position, and save the corresponding relationship to the information list of the slot position. For example, the baseboard management controller can obtain the BDF number corresponding to the PCIe device connected to the slot position, establish a corresponding relationship between the slot position and the BDF number, and save the corresponding relationship to the information list corresponding to the slot position.

[0070] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit how to obtain the logical position of the hardware device, and reference is made to the relevant technology of the server. For example, for a PCIe hardware device, the hardware device may be enumerated and the logical position may be read from the configuration space of the hardware device.

[0071] Based on this, obtaining the logical position of the hardware device connected to the slot position may include:

[0072] Step 41: Enumerate the hardware devices connected to the slot position, and read the logical position from the configuration space of the hardware device.

[0073] S103: Acquire fault information of the hardware device, query a corresponding information list according to logical location information included in the fault information, and save the fault information to the corresponding information list.

[0074] As described above, since the information list stores the correspondence between the slot position and the logical position of the hardware device, when receiving the fault information of the hardware device, the baseboard management controller can query the information list of the corresponding slot position according to the logical position information in the fault information, and save the fault information in the information list. The operation and maintenance personnel only need to scan the identification mark in the server motherboard to quickly view the fault information of the corresponding hardware device, which improves the efficiency of the operation and maintenance personnel in troubleshooting hardware device faults.

[0075] Of course, in addition to saving the fault information of the hardware device, the hardware device replacement information of the slot position can also be recorded in the information list corresponding to the slot position. For example, when the operation and maintenance personnel replace the hardware device, they can verify whether the hardware device is replaced correctly by querying the information in the corresponding information list. This can prevent the operation and maintenance personnel from replacing the wrong device, thereby effectively ensuring the reliability of server operation and maintenance.

[0076] Based on this, the method may further include:

[0077] Step 51: Determine whether the hardware device in the slot position is replaced;

[0078] Step 52: When it is determined that the hardware device in the slot position has been replaced, the device replacement information is recorded in the information list corresponding to the slot position.

[0079] S104: When receiving a query request for the information list sent by a query device, send the information list to the query device; wherein the query device generates the query request by scanning the identification mark.

[0080] As described above, the identification tags attached to the slots of the server can be scanned and identified by the query device and generate a query request for accessing the corresponding information list. Therefore, when the baseboard management controller receives the query request, it can send the corresponding information list to the corresponding query device for the operation and maintenance personnel to view.

[0081] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the manner in which the baseboard management controller and the query device communicate with each other, for example, they may communicate via a network, or they may communicate via Bluetooth, etc. Since the baseboard management controller generally provides a BMC Web function, that is, the baseboard management controller can be accessed via a network, for the convenience of implementation, the query device can communicate with the baseboard management controller via a network.

[0082] Furthermore, this embodiment does not limit the type of query device, which may be a mobile device (such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, etc.), a personal computer with a camera, a dedicated device, etc., and may be set according to actual application requirements.

[0083] Based on the above embodiments, in the present invention, the baseboard management controller can first determine the slot position in the server, and can generate an information list for the slot position; wherein, a corresponding identification mark is pasted at the slot position of the server, and the operation and maintenance personnel can use the query device to scan the identification mark, and then access the information list. Subsequently, the baseboard management controller can obtain the logical position of the hardware device connected to the slot position, establish a corresponding relationship between the slot position and the logical position, and save the corresponding relationship to the information list of the slot position, that is, the logical position information of the hardware device is corresponded to the slot position. Subsequently, the baseboard management controller can also obtain the fault information of the hardware device, query the corresponding information list according to the logical position information contained in the fault information, and save the fault information to the corresponding information list. Furthermore, when a query request for the information list sent by the query device is received, the information list is sent to the query device, so that the operation and maintenance personnel can directly view the slot position, logical position and fault information of the hardware device from the information list, thereby improving the convenience of the operation and maintenance personnel in troubleshooting hardware device faults.

[0084] Based on the above embodiment, since the logical position of the hardware device is set by the basic input and output system of the server, if the hardware device is changed, if the server is restarted, the basic input and output system may change the logical position of the existing hardware device, causing the correspondence between the slot position and the logical position recorded in the information list to become invalid. Therefore, this embodiment can also add a logical position update function to the baseboard management controller, which can update the logical position in each information list when the server restart is detected. Based on this, the method can also include:

[0085] S201, determine whether the server is restarted; if it is determined that the server is restarted, proceed to step S202; if it is not determined that the server is restarted, proceed to step S201.

[0086] S202: When it is determined that the server is restarted, wait for a basic input / output system of the server to perform a logic position setting operation on a hardware device connected to the slot position.

[0087] S203: When it is determined that the basic input / output system completes the logic position setting operation, enumerate the hardware devices and read the logic positions to be compared from the configuration space of the hardware devices.

[0088] S204: Obtain an information list corresponding to the slot position where the hardware device is located, and determine whether the logical position to be compared is the same as the logical position recorded in the information list.

[0089] S205, if they are the same, executing the step of obtaining the information list corresponding to the slot position of the hardware device for the next hardware device, and determining whether the logical position to be compared is the same as the logical position recorded in the information list;

[0090] S206: If they are not the same, the logical position in the information list is updated using the logical position to be compared.

[0091] In steps S202 to S206, after the basic input and output system re-creates the logical position information of the hardware devices in each slot position, the baseboard management controller needs to re-enumerate the hardware devices and use the logical position read from the configuration space of the hardware device as the logical position to be compared. Subsequently, the baseboard management controller needs to obtain the information list of the slot position where the hardware device is located, and determine whether the logical position recorded in the information list is the same as the logical position to be compared. If they are the same, the logical position of the next hardware device can be compared. If they are not the same, it means that the logical position in the information list has expired. At this time, the logical position in the information list needs to be updated using the logical position to be compared to ensure that the information in the information list is correct. In this way, the present embodiment can dynamically record the correspondence between the slot position and the logical position, thereby effectively ensuring the reliability of hardware device operation and maintenance.

[0092] Based on the above embodiment, the above fault information query method is introduced below based on a specific example. The present invention provides a method for locating a PCIe fault position through a QR code, which may include:

[0093] 1. Establish PCIe device location mapping: obtain the physical location and logical location (such as BDF number) of the PCIe device, and establish the mapping relationship between the physical location and the logical location according to the hardware design topology diagram, marked as mapping table 1;

[0094] 2. BMC enumerates PCIe devices: BMC enumerates all PCIe devices and obtains the BDF number of each device;

[0095] 3. BMC mapping table PCIe device is URL: BMC maps the enumerated PCIe device BDF number to a separate URL to generate mapping table 2;

[0096] 4. BMC establishes a PCIe fault handling mechanism: BMC presets a PCIe fault handling mechanism. Specifically, when a PCIe device fails, BMC parses the PCIe device BDF in the fault information, matches the faulty device BDF with the mapping table established above, and fills the processed fault information into the corresponding URL;

[0097] 5. Generate QR code label: Use the QR code generation tool to convert the URL generated by BMC for each PCIe device into a QR code. The QR code generation algorithm is relatively simple;

[0098] 6. Paste the QR code label on the PCIe device: Paste the generated QR code label in a conspicuous position of the PCIe device so that it can be quickly scanned when needed.

[0099] For easier understanding, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a QR code generation process provided by an embodiment of the present invention.

[0100] The present invention also provides a method for querying equipment fault information, specifically:

[0101] Scan the QR code label to obtain the device fault status: When a PCIe device fails, use a QR code scanning device (such as a smartphone, tablet computer, etc.) to scan the QR code label on the PCIe device to obtain the PCIe device fault status information and confirm the location of the faulty device.

[0102] For easier understanding, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 A flowchart of device fault information query provided by an embodiment of the present invention.

[0103] In summary, the present invention completes the correspondence between the physical location and the logical location of the PCIe device by presetting the QR code. The fault status of each PCIe device is updated one by one through the PCIe fault handling mechanism preset by the BMC, and the accurate positioning of the PCIe device status is achieved by generating the QR code through the URL.
