[0025] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme 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 only 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 should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second" and "target" in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0027] In the field of information technology, system deployment and software distribution are key links to ensure the efficient operation of computer networks. ISO is a pre-configured operating system image used to quickly deploy and manage high-performance computing cluster environments. Traditional system deployment methods usually involve manually making ISO image files, which is not only time-consuming but also prone to errors. Once the ISO image is ready, it also needs to be burned to a removable hard drive or other bootable media for on-site installation. This method requires technicians to be on-site in person, which increases labor costs and time expenses.

[0028] In addition, when installing an operating system using an ISO image, manual intervention is usually required to select the correct boot item and boot the installation program from the network card, which means that a technician must be present to monitor the device during the restart process. This not only limits the flexibility of the installation process, but also increases the reliance on on-site support.

[0029] With the development of technology, network boot technologies such as Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) have emerged, allowing computers to boot and load operating systems or applications through the network. However, even with PXE, it is still necessary to manually select the boot item and start the installation from the network card, which also requires technicians to operate on site and cannot achieve true remote deployment and management.

[0030] Therefore, the existing system deployment methods have the following shortcomings: manually making ISO images is time-consuming and error-prone; ISO image installation requires physical media and on-site supervision; the installation process lacks flexibility and cannot be remotely intervened; although PXE and other methods provide network booting, they still rely on manual selection of startup items. Therefore, the present invention provides a method for realizing remote unattended automatic installation of image files.

[0031] Embodiment 1

[0032] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of an image installation method provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the situation of unattended automatic update of computing clusters. The method can be executed by an image installation device, which can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software.

[0033] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of system interactions involved in a mirror image installation method provided in the first embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 2As shown, the image installation system includes a compilation server, an image server and a device cluster. The compilation server is connected to the image server and is used to mount the image installation package on the image server. The compilation server is also connected to each computing device in the device cluster and is used to implement remote control of each computing device. Among the computing devices in the computing cluster, the computing device on which the image file is to be installed is the target device; the image server is also connected to each computing device in the device cluster and is used for each computing device to obtain the mounted image installation package when an image installation requirement is generated.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0035] S101, obtaining an initial installation file and file configuration information, cutting and compiling the initial installation file based on the file configuration information to form an image installation package, and mounting the image installation package on an image server.

[0036] In this embodiment, the initial installation file can be understood as the initial ISO image file, which is a file with complete field configurations. The file configuration information can be understood as information such as the cropping content and cropping method required for the initial installation file. The image installation package can be understood as the installation package file that is ultimately transmitted to the target device and implements the image installation on the target device. The target device can be understood as a computing device designated for image installation in a computing cluster, and there can be multiple target devices at the same time to achieve batch installation of the computing cluster. The image server can be understood as a server used to mount the image installation package for the target device to obtain.

[0037] Specifically, the initial ISO image file and the file configuration information for the file are obtained, the initial installation file is trimmed according to the file configuration information to obtain the trimmed installation file, the default device boot file and Internet Protocol Address (IP) settings in the system are modified based on the trimmed installation file, and other script files are merged into the library, such as the device boot code for starting the target device, etc. The trimmed installation file, the modified device boot file and IP setting information, and other script files are integrated and compiled to form an image installation package. The image installation package is transmitted to the image server so that it is mounted on the image server for acquisition by the target device connected to the image server.

[0038] S102: Obtain an installation request for a target device, and configure device information for the target device based on the installation request, so that the target device obtains a mirror installation package by accessing a mirror server, and installs the mirror installation package based on the configured device information.

[0039] In this embodiment, the compiling server is also connected to the client to obtain various request information uploaded by the client. The installation request can be understood as the request information obtained from the client to specify a target device for mirror installation based on certain device parameters. The device information can be understood as parameter attribute information of the target device, etc., including but not limited to the startup sequence of each startup item in the Basic Input / Output System (BIOS) on the target device. The Basic Input / Output System BIOS is a set of programs solidified on a memory chip on the computer motherboard, which is responsible for providing the lowest level of hardware control and settings.

[0040] Specifically, the installation request configured by the client for the target device is obtained, and in response to the installation request, a corresponding instruction is generated, and the instruction is transmitted to the basic input and output system BIOS through a specific interface protocol to modify or configure the device information in the BIOS based on the instruction content. After the target device modifies the device information according to the instruction content, it restarts, and after restarting, it obtains the mounted image installation package from the image server based on a specific service, and based on the device boot file in the image installation package and the modified device information of the target device, executes the installation of the system configuration file in the image installation package, thereby realizing unattended batch automatic image installation.

[0041] An image installation method provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes obtaining an initial installation file and file configuration information, cutting and compiling the initial installation file based on the file configuration information to form an image installation package, and mounting the image installation package on an image server; obtaining an installation request for a target device, configuring device information for the target device based on the installation request, so that the target device obtains the image installation package by accessing the image server, and installs the image installation package based on the configured device information. The above technical solution realizes efficient, safe and automated image file installation, reduces labor costs and media costs, simplifies the system deployment process, and improves the reliability and flexibility of deployment.

[0042] Embodiment 2

[0043] Figure 3 It is a flowchart of an image installation method provided in the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is a further optimization of any of the above embodiments and can be applied to the situation of unattended automatic update of computing clusters. The method can be executed by an image installation device, which can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0045] S201, obtaining an initial installation file and file configuration information, and cutting the initial installation file based on the file configuration information to form a system configuration file.

[0046] In this embodiment, the system configuration file can be understood as a file containing a series of parameters and instructions set to ensure that the computer system and related software can run normally.

[0047] Specifically, the initial installation file and file configuration information are obtained. The initial installation file usually contains all components and resources required for software or system installation. These files may include executable files, library files, configuration files, help documents, etc. The file configuration information is customized configuration information, including the cropping method and cropping content for the initial installation file. The initial installation file is cropped based on the file configuration information, and unnecessary components or resources are removed from the initial installation file, or some components are customized to form a cropped system configuration file.

[0048] Tailoring the initial installation files can improve the flexibility and usability of its application, reduce unnecessary memory resource usage, and improve operating efficiency. The tailored system configuration files meet the specific operating environment.

[0049] Optionally, the initial installation file is trimmed based on the file configuration information to form a system configuration file, including:

[0050] S2011. Modify the target configuration items in the initial installation file based on the file configuration information to form a system configuration file, where the target configuration items at least include boot items.

[0051] In this embodiment, the target configuration item can be understood as the component to be modified in the initial installation file determined based on the file configuration information, including at least the boot item, and may also include drivers, etc., or include other content based on actual needs, which is not limited in this embodiment. The boot item is usually related to the system startup process, and determines which device or program the system starts to boot from, that is, the startup location.

[0052] Specifically, before making the modification, it is necessary to obtain the initial installation file and related file configuration information. The initial installation file usually contains the basic components and default configuration of the software or system, parse the file configuration information, and determine the target configuration items to be modified and their specific values. Then, based on the parsing results of the file configuration information, modify the target configuration items such as the boot items in the initial installation file to form a new and more flexible system configuration file.

[0053] S202: modify the initial boot file and the initial network protocol address according to the system configuration file, and obtain the target boot file and the target network protocol address accordingly.

[0054] In this embodiment, the initial boot file can be understood as the system default initial device boot file, and the target boot file can be understood as the modified device boot file. The device boot file is a Kickstart configuration file, which is a key component in the computer startup process. It is responsible for guiding the operating system to load and is searched and loaded by the basic input and output system BIOS to start the operating system. The initial network protocol address can be understood as the IP address corresponding to the initial default or the last image installation. The target network protocol address can be understood as the IP address corresponding to the target device to be installed in this image installation, that is, the IP address of the target device.

[0055] Specifically, the system configuration file (the initial installation file is also a system configuration file) includes a directory of device boot files, and the initial installation file corresponds to the initial boot file. Since the initial installation file is cut down, the system configuration file is formed. Therefore, based on the modified content from the initial installation file to the system configuration file, the initial boot file is adjusted accordingly to form a target boot file corresponding to the cut system configuration file, or a corresponding device boot file is directly generated based on the new system configuration file, that is, the target boot file. The system configuration file contains an indication of the target device to be installed, thereby modifying the original initial network protocol address to the target network protocol address corresponding to the target device to be installed.

[0056] S203, integrating and compiling the code on the library to form a mirror installation package, wherein the code on the library at least includes a system configuration file and a target boot file.

[0057] In this embodiment, the library code can be understood as the code that can be provided in the current ISO customization process, at least including the pre-written ISO customization-related code that the code library can provide and the real-time custom-written code. The specific implementation of the library code at least includes a system configuration file and a target boot file, as well as a device startup code for the target device, etc., and may also include other custom code scripts related to specific functional requirements.

[0058] Specifically, all existing code scripts in the ISO customization process are integrated and compiled to form a complete image installation package.

[0059] S204: Mount the image installation package on the image server.

[0060] In this embodiment, the image installation package is transmitted to the image server through the communication connection relationship between the compilation server and the image server, so that the image server mounts the image installation package, eliminating the process of manually copying the ISO image installation package.

[0061] S205: Configure the services required for the mirror server to connect to the target device.

[0062] In this embodiment, after mounting the mirror installation package to the mirror server, in order to realize the automatic unattended batch installation of the target device, the communication service between the target device and the mirror server needs to be pre-configured, and the services to be configured include at least the Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) service, the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) service and the Network File System (NFS) service. The TFTP service is used to realize the file transfer between the mirror server and the target device, the DHCP service is used to realize the automatic configuration of the network parameters, and the NFS service is used to realize the shared file system.

[0063] S206: Obtain an installation request for the target device, and generate a device information configuration command based on the installation request, where the device information configuration command includes at least a serial port mapping command and a startup item sequence modification command.

[0064] In this embodiment, the device information configuration command can be understood as a command for configuring the device information, corresponding to the installation request. The device information configuration command includes at least a serial port mapping command and a startup item order modification command. Among them, the serial port mapping command can be understood as a command for mapping the serial port on the mainboard (Central Processing Unit, CPU) board of the target device to the baseboard management controller (Baseboard Management Controller, BMC), wherein the BMC is a dedicated microcontroller independent of the server operating system and the main processor, built into the mainboard of the server, network equipment and other complex electronic systems, mainly responsible for monitoring and managing the status of the system hardware, and providing remote management and control functions. The startup item order modification command can be understood as a command for modifying the startup order of each startup item in the device information of the target device through the window command line of the basic input and output system BIOS.

[0065] Specifically, an installation request for the target device is obtained, the installation request including a serial port mapping request and a startup item order modification request. A serial port mapping command is formed based on the serial port mapping request, and a startup item order modification command is formed based on the startup item order modification request.

[0066] S207. Configure the target device's device information based on the device information configuration command, so that the target device restarts, accesses the image server after restarting, obtains the image installation package mounted on the image server, and installs the image installation package according to the configured device information.

[0067] Specifically, based on the serial port mapping command in the device information configuration command, the CPU motherboard serial port of the target device is mapped to the BMC on the baseboard management controller; based on the startup item order modification command in the device information configuration command, the startup order of each startup item in the basic input and output system on the target device is modified. At this time, the configuration of the device information on the target device is completed through the compilation server, and the operating system will be started based on this configuration information when the target device restarts. After completing the configuration of the device information, start the device restart script to restart the target device and start it in PXE form. After the target device restarts, access the image server through the configured service, obtain the image installation package mounted on the image server, and complete the image installation according to the device information. Realize the unattended installation function.

[0068] Optionally, device information is configured for the target device based on the device information configuration command, including:

[0069] S2071. Map the mainboard serial port of the target device to the baseboard management controller based on the serial port mapping command in the device information configuration command.

[0070] Specifically, the motherboard serial port on the target device that needs to be mapped to the BMC is identified. Based on the serial port mapping command in the device information configuration command, or based on a specific management tool, the motherboard serial port of the target device that needs to be mapped is mapped to the baseboard management controller BMC to achieve remote monitoring and control of the target device.

[0071] S2072: based on the startup item sequence modification command in the device information configuration command, modify the startup sequence of each startup item in the basic input and output system of the target device.

[0072] Specifically, the BMC and BIOS communicate by setting an interface protocol, such as the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI). The BMC sends the boot item order modification command in the device information configuration command to the BIOS through the IPMI protocol to modify the boot order of each boot item in the BBIOS. By adjusting the BIOS settings and updating the BIOS functions through the serial port, it is no longer necessary to enter the BIOS interface through the monitor of the local access target device and manually change the BIOS boot items.

[0073] An image installation method provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes obtaining an initial installation file and file configuration information, cutting and processing the initial installation file based on the file configuration information to form a system configuration file; modifying an initial boot file and an initial network protocol address according to the system configuration file, and correspondingly obtaining a target boot file and a target network protocol address; integrating and compiling a library code to form an image installation package, wherein the library code at least includes a system configuration file and a target boot file; mounting the image installation package on an image server; configuring services required for the image server to connect to a target device; obtaining an installation request for the target device, and generating a device information configuration command based on the installation request; the device information configuration command at least includes a serial port mapping command and a startup item sequence modification command; configuring device information of the target device based on the device information configuration command so that the target device restarts, and accessing the image server after restarting, obtaining the image installation package mounted on the image server, and installing the image installation package according to the configured device information. In the above technical solution, ISO image files do not need to be manually burned to physical media, and unattended automatic batch installation and deployment can be achieved. The target device can be flexibly selected for image installation and device information can be configured. There is no need for local supervision or logging in to the BMC interface to change the device startup items. Adjustments can be made by sending commands remotely, which is more flexible.
