It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described here, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally a class, and the number of objects is not limited. For example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, the term "and / or" in the specification and claims is used to describe the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three kinds of relationships can exist, for example, A and / or B can be represented: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the front and back associated objects are a kind of "or" relationship. In the embodiment of the present application, the term "multiple" refers to two or more, and other quantifiers are similar.
[0041] The concepts involved in this application are explained below.
[0042] SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a standard protocol designed specifically for managing network nodes (servers, workstations, routers, switches, and Hubs, etc.) on Internet Protocol (IP) networks. It is an application layer protocol. BMC usually supports the SNMP protocol, which allows remote management and monitoring of server hardware, including the status and performance of storage cards, through the SNMP protocol. As an SNMP agent, BMC is responsible for collecting hardware information collected by the server.
[0043] The virtual media function of BMC is an embedded microcontroller function that allows administrators to remotely access the server through the network to remotely install the operating system, update the firmware, and other operations. Through the virtual media function, administrators can map local CDs, USB devices, etc. to remote servers to achieve remote installation and configuration. Specifically, the virtual media function of BMC supports mounting ISO images or disk drives to the server, allowing administrators to remotely install operating systems, update firmware, etc. This function greatly improves the management efficiency and flexibility of the server.
[0044] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A hardware connection diagram provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, including: a BMC, a bridge chip, a memory card and a disk, wherein the BMC is connected to the bridge chip through a first USB interface and a second USB interface respectively, the bridge chip is connected to a central processing unit (CPU), the CPU is connected to the memory card, and the memory card is connected to the disk.
[0045] Specifically, BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) is a small operating system independent of the server system, a chip integrated on the motherboard, used for remote out-of-band management. It can be plugged into the motherboard through PCIe and other forms, has an independent RJ45 network port and IP address, and is used for remote management, monitoring, installation, restart and other operations of the server. The BMC is connected to the CPU through a bridge chip. The function of the bridge chip is to connect multiple CPUs and other components to ensure that data and instructions can be transmitted efficiently. The BMC and the bridge chip communicate through the USB interface. The CPU is connected to the memory card through the data bus, address bus and control bus, while the memory card is connected to the disk through the data bus and control bus. This connection method ensures efficient transmission and processing of data.
[0046] refer to Figure 2 , which shows a flowchart of the steps of the method for managing a memory card based on a BMC provided in an embodiment of the present application, including:
[0047] Step 101, in response to a mount instruction of the BMC, mount the management image in the BMC to a server host, so that the server host can start up through the management image and obtain status information of a storage card.
[0048] In the embodiment of the present application, the management image may be a program pre-set in the BMC for obtaining various information of the memory card, operating the storage device, adding or removing the memory card, and other functions supported by a series of memory cards. The BMC may mount the management image to the server host, so that the server host can start based on the management image, enter the memory card management mode, and obtain the status information of the memory card. At this time, the management image communicates with the BMC as an agent, and provides the obtained status information of the memory card to the BMC through communication with the BMC, so as to realize the management of the memory card by the BMC.
[0049] Optionally, the BMC is connected to the server host via a first USB interface, and step 101 includes:
[0050] Sub-step 1011, in response to a mount instruction of the BMC, the management image is mounted to the server host end based on the first USB interface through the virtual media service of the BMC.
[0051] In an embodiment of the present application, the BMC virtual media service (BMC Virtual Media) is a function of the BMC that allows users to remotely access and operate the server's virtual optical drive and virtual floppy drive through the BMC, so that server administrators can remotely install operating systems, load files, or perform other operations that require an optical drive or floppy drive without physical access to the server.
[0052] Specifically, in the remote management interface of the BMC, the management image to be mounted can be selected through interactive operations, and the management image can be connected to the server, so that the server can recognize the image file as a bootable device, thereby allowing the user to start or install the operating system from the image file when remotely managing the server through the BMC. After the server host is restarted through the management image, the management image is used to obtain the status information of the storage card to achieve management of the storage card.
[0053] Further, the BMC mount instruction may be an instruction generated based on the mount operation of the management image in the remote management interface of the BMC. The BMC and the server host are connected via the first USB interface. Figure 1 , the mounting instruction is sent to the server host through the first USB interface via the bridge chip, so as to mount the management image to the server host.
[0054] Step 102: Obtain the status information of the memory card from the server host through a preset network protocol to manage the memory card.
[0055] In an embodiment of the present invention, after the management image is mounted to the server host, the management image can implement a series of management operations such as obtaining status information of the storage card, adding or removing storage cards, etc. based on a pre-compiled program. The obtained status information of the storage card can be recorded, and the BMC can obtain the status information of the storage card by communicating with the management image.
[0056] Specifically, the preset network protocol may be the SNMP protocol, and the BMC and the management image may communicate based on the SNMP protocol to obtain the status information of the storage card. SNMP is a standard protocol for managing network nodes (such as servers, workstations, routers, switches, etc.) in an IP network. It allows network administrators to monitor and control network devices through an NMS (network management system). BMC usually supports the SNMP protocol, so the server hardware, including the status and performance of the storage card, may be remotely managed and monitored through the SNMP protocol.
[0057] Furthermore, although the SNMP protocol itself is based on an IP network, the BMC can be connected to other parts of the server through a USB interface, such as a USB network adapter. In this case, the USB network adapter can convert USB signals into IP network signals, thereby enabling the BMC to communicate with the management image through the IP network.
[0058] The method of the present application sets a management image in the BMC and mounts the management image on the server host side, so that the management image can manage the storage card on the server and obtain the status information of the storage card. The BMC obtains the status information of the storage card by communicating with the management image mounted on the server host side to manage the storage card. The method of the present application does not require technical support from the storage card manufacturer. The management of the storage card on the server can be conveniently achieved by mounting the management image based on the BMC, thereby improving the convenience of storage card management and reducing the complexity of storage card management.
[0059] Optionally, the BMC is connected to the server host via a second USB interface, and step 102 includes:
[0060] Sub-step 1021: convert the second USB interface into a network interface.
[0061] Optionally, sub-step 1021 includes:
[0062] Sub-step 10211, converting the second USB interface into a network interface via a USB to network driver.
[0063] In the embodiment of the present invention, with respect to sub-step 1021 and sub-step 10211, the second USB interface may be converted into a network interface via a USB-to-network driver to implement communication between the BMC and the management image.
[0064] Specifically, the second USB interface can be converted into a network interface by using a USB to network driver: using a USB Ethernet adapter. The second USB interface is converted into an Ethernet network interface so that the USB device can be connected through the network. The USB device is connected to the USB interface of the USB Ethernet adapter, and then the Ethernet interface of the adapter is connected to a router or switch in the local area network. After installing relevant drivers or software on other devices in the local area network, they can be connected to the network for data transmission and information exchange.
[0065] Sub-step 1022: acquiring the status information of the storage card from the management image of the server host based on the network interface and a preset network protocol.
[0066] In the embodiment of the present invention, for sub-step 1022, based on the network interface, the BMC and the management image on the server host can communicate based on the SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) protocol to obtain the status information of the storage card.
[0067] Specifically, SNMP is a protocol for network device management. BMC can communicate with the server through the SNMP protocol to obtain and monitor the server's hardware information, such as CPU usage, memory usage, storage status, etc., as well as the status information of the storage card obtained in this application.
[0068] Optionally, the preset network protocol is SNMP protocol, and sub-step 1022 includes:
[0069] Sub-step 10221, sending a request instruction to the server host based on the network interface; the request instruction is an instruction based on the SNMP protocol,
[0070] Sub-step 10222: receiving the status information of the memory card returned by the management image of the server host based on the request instruction.
[0071] In the embodiment of the present invention, for sub-steps 10221 and 10222, the management image mounted on the server host side can save the obtained result after obtaining the status information of the storage card, and the BMC can send a request instruction to the server host side based on the network interface, and the request instruction is an instruction based on the SNMP protocol, and the request instruction is an instruction for obtaining the status information of the storage card. After receiving the request instruction, the server host side transmits the status information of the storage card corresponding to the request instruction to the BMC based on the SNMP protocol and the network interface, so as to realize the management of the storage card based on the BMC.
[0072] The method of the present application sets a small system image, namely, a management image, in the BMC. When there is no system on the host side, the system image can be used as an agent and the BMC to manage the storage card and related devices on the storage card through the USB (hardware link) SNMP protocol, thereby solving the problem in the related art that the management of the storage card depends on the source code release of the storage card manufacturer, resulting in the inability to conveniently implement the storage card management.
[0073] Optionally, the method further comprises:
[0074] Step 103: In response to the mount operation performed on the remote management page of the BMC, a mount instruction for the management image is generated.
[0075] In an embodiment of the present invention, the remote management page of the BMC may include a login management interface, and the user enters a user name and password in the login management interface, and after verification, enters the mounting operation of the management image. Specifically, the management image may be an ISO file, and the mounting operation may be an operation of selecting the management image on the remote management page through the virtual media function of the BMC, and mounting it to the server host end, generating a mount instruction based on the mount operation, and transmitting the mount instruction to the server host end through the first USB interface, so as to achieve mounting the management image to the server host end.
[0076] Optionally, after step 101, the method further includes:
[0077] Step 104, obtaining the running status of the BMC terminal service;
[0078] Step 105: When there is no error in the running state, determine that the management image is mounted successfully.
[0079] In the embodiment of the present invention, for step 104 and step 105, after the operation of mounting the management image to the server host is performed, it can be further determined whether the management image is mounted successfully. For example, the running status of the BMC terminal service can be obtained. If there is no error in the running status, it is determined that the management image is mounted successfully. After the mounting is successful, the subsequent acquisition of the status information of the storage card based on the management image and the communication with the management image through the network interface and the SNMP protocol can be continued to implement the relevant technical means of BMC management of the storage card.
[0080] Optionally, the management image is pre-set in the BMC and is used to obtain status information of a storage card on the server; the storage card includes an array card and a pass-through card.
[0081] In an embodiment of the present invention, a management image may be pre-set in the BMC, and the management image may design corresponding codes based on actual management requirements. For example, the management image may be a program for implementing a series of functions supported by a storage card, such as obtaining various information of the storage card, operating storage devices, adding or removing raid cards, etc. The embodiment of the present application is not limited here.
[0082] The storage card in this application can be an array card (RAID controller, RAID card), a pass-through card (Host Bus Adapter, host bus adapter), etc. In addition, the management image can also be the management of other PCIE (peripheral component interconnect express, high-speed serial computer expansion bus standard) card images. The mounting method and the communication method with the BMC are similar to the above-mentioned management of the storage card in this application, and will not be repeated here.
[0083] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 Another method for managing a memory card based on a BMC provided by the present application is shown, comprising:
[0084] Step S1: Enter the memory card management mode.
[0085] In the embodiment of the present application, the memory card management mode is entered by clicking a designated function button on the BMC web remote management page.
[0086] Step S2: Memory card management mode.
[0087] In the embodiment of the present application, user authentication is performed on the BMC web remote management page to enter the memory card management mode. If the memory card management mode has been entered, step S7 can be entered to obtain the current memory card status through the SNMP protocol.
[0088] Step S3: Perform storage card proxy mounting (through the first USB interface).
[0089] In the embodiment of the present application, the memory card agent and the management image mentioned above in the present application communicate with the BMC as an agent, so that the BMC can manage the memory card. The agent mounting method is realized through the Virtual Media function of the BMC remote management. In terms of hardware, data transmission and communication are realized through the USB connection between the first USB interface of the BMC chip and the bridge chip.
[0090] Specifically, the BMC Virtual Media service is a function of the BMC that allows users to remotely access and operate the server's virtual CD-ROM drive and virtual floppy drive through the BMC. This allows server administrators to remotely install operating systems, load files, or perform other operations that require CD-ROM drives or floppy drives without physical access to the server. Therefore, the management image is mounted to the server through the BMC Virtual Media Service. After the server host is restarted through the management image, the management image is used to obtain the status information of the storage card to implement the management of the storage card.
[0091] Step S4: Mounting is successful.
[0092] In an embodiment of the present application, after executing the operation of mounting the management image to the server host, it is possible to further determine whether the management image is mounted successfully. For example, the running status of the BMC terminal service can be obtained. If there is no error in the running status, it is determined that the management image is mounted successfully. After the mounting is successful, the subsequent acquisition of the status information of the storage card based on the management image, and the communication with the management image through the network interface and the SNMP protocol to implement the relevant technical means of BMC management of the storage card can be continued. If the management image is not mounted successfully, return to the previous step, that is, step S4, and continue to perform the operation of mounting the management image.
[0093] Step S5, restart the system and enter the memory card management agent.
[0094] In the embodiment of the present application, after the management image is successfully mounted to the server, the server can identify the image file as a bootable device, thereby allowing the user to start or install the operating system from the image file when remotely managing the server through the BMC. The server host restarts through the management image, enters the storage card management agent, obtains the status information of the storage card through the management image, and realizes the management of the storage card.
[0095] Step S6, managing the memory card via the SNMP protocol (via the second USB interface).
[0096] In the embodiment of the present application, the second USB interface can be converted into a network interface through a USB to network driver to realize communication between the BMC and the management image. For example, the management image can manage a series of functions supported by the memory card, such as obtaining various information of the memory card, operating the storage device, adding and removing the raid card, etc.
[0097] Step S7, obtaining the current memory card status (through the second USB interface) through the SNMP protocol.
[0098] In the embodiment of the present application, the management image mounted on the server host can save the obtained result after obtaining the status information of the storage card, and the BMC can send a request instruction to the server host based on the network interface, and the request instruction is an instruction based on the SNMP protocol, and the request instruction is an instruction for obtaining the status information of the storage card. After receiving the request instruction, the server host transmits the status information of the storage card corresponding to the request instruction to the BMC based on the SNMP protocol and the second USB interface, so as to realize the management of the storage card based on the BMC.
[0099] Step S8: Management successful.
[0100] In the embodiment of the present application, the management image successfully obtains the status information of the storage card, and the BMC communicates with the management image through the second USB interface to obtain the status information of the storage card, which means that the management of the storage card is successful.
[0101] That is, the above method of the present application sets a small system image, namely, a management image, in the BMC. When there is no system on the host side, this system image can be used as an agent and the BMC to manage the memory card and related devices on the memory card through the USB (hardware link) SNMP protocol, thereby solving the problem in the related art that the management of the memory card depends on the source code release of the memory card manufacturer, resulting in the inability to conveniently implement the memory card management.
[0102] In summary, in the embodiment of the present application, in response to the mounting instruction of the BMC, the management image in the BMC is mounted to the server host side, so that the server host side can start through the management image and obtain the status information of the storage card; the status information of the storage card is obtained from the server host side through a preset network protocol to achieve the management of the storage card. The method of the present application sets a management image in the BMC, mounts the management image on the server host side, so that the management image can manage the storage card on the server and obtain the status information of the storage card. The BMC obtains the status information of the storage card by communicating with the management image mounted on the server host side to achieve the management of the storage card. The method of the present application does not require the storage card manufacturer to provide technical support. The management of the storage card on the server can be conveniently achieved through the management image mounting method based on the BMC, which improves the convenience of storage card management and reduces the complexity of storage card management.
