[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more apparent, the following will describe in detail exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all the embodiments of the present disclosure, and it should be understood that the present disclosure is not limited to the exemplary embodiments described herein.

[0029] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a server installation method disclosed in this embodiment is first described in detail. The server installation method provided in this embodiment is generally executed by an electronic device with certain computing capabilities, such as a terminal device, a server, or other processing device. In some possible implementations, this server installation method can be implemented by a processor invoking computer-readable instructions stored in a memory.

[0030] See also Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a server installation method provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, wherein the method includes steps S101 to S103, wherein: Step S101: Obtain a custom configuration file; wherein the custom configuration file is a declarative configuration file, which is used to define a target operating system configuration of at least one type of server.

[0031] The execution entity of the server installation method can be a management platform, which includes a regional agent and an instance management module. The agent is responsible for process tuning and control of the operating system resource status and processes custom configuration files based on a list-watch mechanism that continuously monitors resource changes. The custom configuration files here can be JSON files, YAML files, or custom resource files (CR). The instance management module is used to manage the installation instances in the local template library and the metadata of the installation instances.

[0032] The operating system definition can be represented by a custom resource description (CRD) in Kubernetes. CRD describes a specific operating system resource instance, which serves as the operating system information record carrier for custom configuration files and can use YAML files to customize the operating system type.

[0033] Specifically, the custom configuration file includes the applicable multiple network zone selectors, the server name (name), the desired operating system type (image), the mapping between resource types and installation template identifiers, the server's final installation status (status), the network address instance (ntp) of the resource pool's internal Network Time Protocol (NTP) server, the operating system retry policy (retryPolicy), and the evaluation threshold (bandwidth). The contents of the custom configuration file can be adjusted as needed; this disclosure does not require this.

[0034] Among them, the custom profile is applicable to multiple network areas, such as the core control area CORE, the demilitarized zone DMZ, and the physical or logical resource pool (availability zone) POD1. The server name can be configured through the hostNameTemplate template in the instance management module. The type of operating system that users in each network area want to configure can be the same or different. The installation template identification information of each network area can be the same or different. The installation template identification information includes hard disk partition template identification information and network configuration template identification information. The installation template identification information can be the installation template name, installation template ID, or a hash value of the installation template. Correspondingly, the mapping relationship includes the mapping relationship partition between the resource type and the hard disk partition template identification information, and the mapping relationship network between the resource type and the network configuration template identification information. NTP can also be obtained from the instance management module. The resource type can be computing, block storage, or network. The resource types supported by different network areas can be the same or different. In this way, the availability of the custom profile can be improved while ensuring the isolation of network areas.

[0035] Step S102: Obtain installation information of the target server to be installed.

[0036] Here, the installation information includes information such as the name of the target server, the network area where the target server is located, and the serial number of the target server.

[0037] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after obtaining the custom configuration file, the management platform parses the custom configuration file through the agent, and calls the instance management module through the Restful interface to verify the legality of the content in the custom configuration file. If it is illegal, the processing of the custom configuration file is stopped; if it is legal, the installation information of the target server to be installed is obtained from the instance management module.

[0038] Step S103: generating an installation script for the target server based on the custom configuration file and the installation information, and performing installation processing on the target server according to the installation script.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a Kickstart file, an installation script of the target server, is generated according to the custom configuration file and the installation information, and the target server is installed according to the installation script.

[0040] In the above implementation, the final state of the desired operating system resources is determined through a custom configuration file, and personalized definition is performed for configuration information such as the type of operating system, resource type, and installation template identification information that the user desires to configure, so as to automatically select different configuration mechanisms according to different types of servers, thereby improving the flexibility of the server installation process. Moreover, if the server configuration needs to be modified, updating the custom configuration file can trigger the update, thereby determining the processing logic of the installation process based on the generated installation script, which can effectively improve the flexibility and scalability of the server installation process.

[0041] In an optional embodiment, the above step of generating an installation script for the target server based on the custom configuration file and the installation information includes: determining a target network zone associated with the target server among the plurality of network zones to which the custom configuration file is applicable; Obtain the service type of the target server; Determining a target installation instance based on a degree of matching between the service type of the target server and the resource type supported by the target network area; wherein the target installation instance includes a hard disk partition instance and a network configuration instance; The target installation instance and the installation information are combined to obtain an installation script for the target server.

[0042] Here, if the resource types supported by the target network area are computing, block storage, and network, and the service type of the target server is computing, then a target installation instance corresponding to the computing type is determined.

[0043] The present disclosure does not limit the specific content of the target installation instance, and can be adaptively adjusted according to the actual application scenario.

[0044] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the agent in the management platform can first determine the network area in the custom configuration file that matches the target server, that is, the target network area, and then match the service type of the target server with the resource type supported by the target network area, and pull the corresponding hard disk partition instance and network configuration instance according to the degree of matching, and finally combine the hard disk partition instance, network configuration instance and installation information to obtain the installation script of the target server.

[0045] In the above implementation, the installation script of the target server is automatically generated by dual alignment between the custom configuration file and the target server, namely the network area and service type, thereby improving the accuracy of the server installation process and supporting the installation of multiple server service types, thereby effectively improving the flexibility of the installation process.

[0046] In an optional embodiment, the above step of determining the target installation instance based on the degree of matching between the service type of the target server and the resource type supported by the target network area specifically includes the following steps: In a case where the service type of the target server matches the resource type supported by the target network area, determining target installation template identification information associated with the target network area; An installation instance corresponding to the target installation template identification information is obtained in a local template library as the target installation instance.

[0047] If the service type of the target server matches at least one resource type supported by the target network area, target installation template identification information associated with the target network area may be determined based on the mapping relationship.

[0048] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the service type of the target server matches the resource type supported by the target network area, the corresponding installation template identification information in the custom configuration file, that is, the target installation template identification information, is determined, and the target installation instance corresponding to the target installation template identification information is searched in the local database through the instance management module.

[0049] In the above implementation, accurate matching of service type and resource type is achieved, and a link from the installation template name to the template instance is established. The custom configuration file does not carry the complete template instance. When the template instance needs to be updated, there is no need to re-issue the custom configuration file, which can achieve lightweight custom configuration files.

[0050] In an optional embodiment, the above step of determining the target installation instance based on the degree of matching between the service type of the target server and the resource type supported by the target network area specifically includes the following steps: In a case where the service type of the target server does not match the resource type supported by the target network area, the target installation instance is generated based on the service type of the target server and the installation information.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the service type of the target server and the resource type supported by the target network area do not match, a target installation instance can be generated directly based on the service type and installation information of the target server to improve the fault tolerance of the matching process and thus ensure the continuity of the installation process.

[0052] In an optional embodiment, after the target installation instance is generated based on the service type of the target server and the installation information, the method further specifically includes the following steps: Determine the first installation template identification information corresponding to the target installation instance; A first mapping relationship between the service type of the target server and the first installation template identification information is established, and the first mapping relationship is added to the custom configuration file to obtain an updated custom configuration file.

[0053] As mentioned above, the custom configuration file includes the mapping relationship between resource types and installation template identification information. In this regard, after obtaining the target installation instance, the present disclosure can add a new mapping relationship in the custom configuration file for the target installation instance to achieve the update of the custom configuration file.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first installation template identification information of the target installation instance can be determined, and a first mapping relationship between the service type of the target server and the first installation template identification information can be established, and the first mapping relationship can be added to the custom configuration file. This can improve the scalability of the custom configuration file, so that the updated custom configuration file can support more resource types, and then facilitate matching with more service types to improve the flexibility of the server installation process.

[0055] In an optional embodiment, the custom configuration file in the above step includes an evaluation threshold; and the installation process on the target server according to the installation script specifically includes the following steps: When there are multiple target servers, determining the target server to be installed at the current moment; Determining a first installation queue based on the first number of target servers to be installed at the current moment and the evaluation threshold; The target servers in the first installation queue are installed according to the installation script.

[0056] The agent in the management platform is bound to a network card. After starting the installation process, the agent will limit the number of concurrently installed servers based on the network card bandwidth of the bound network card.

[0057] Specifically, when there are multiple target servers, the target server to be installed at the current moment is determined, and the target server to be installed may be one or more.

[0058] Then, according to the first number of target servers to be installed at the current moment and the evaluation threshold, the first installation queue that ultimately needs to be installed at the current moment is determined, so that the target servers in the first installation queue can be installed according to the installation script.

[0059] In the above implementation, the current concurrency upper limit can be dynamically determined based on the first number of target servers to be installed and the evaluation threshold, so as to maximize the resource utilization of the network card bound to the agent, thereby improving the success rate and efficiency of the server installation process.

[0060] In an optional embodiment, the above step of determining the first installation queue based on the first number of target servers to be installed at the current moment and the evaluation threshold specifically includes the following steps: calculating a first evaluation parameter based on the first quantity; Comparing the first evaluation parameter with the evaluation threshold to obtain a comparison result; The first installation queue is determined according to the comparison result.

[0061] The present disclosure hereby provides an exemplary description of the process of determining the first installation queue.

[0062] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a first evaluation parameter is calculated based on the number of servers that are being installed concurrently at the current moment, and the first evaluation parameter and the evaluation threshold are used to measure whether there is any surplus network card bandwidth at the current moment, so as to determine the first installation queue of servers that ultimately need to be installed at the current moment.

[0063] In the above implementation, an association can be established between the concurrent number of server installations and the first installation queue, that is, the first number and the first installation queue, so that the first installation queue can be adjusted in real time to ensure that there is processing capacity for the target server in the first installation queue, maximize resource utilization, and effectively improve the success rate of the installation process.

[0064] In an optional embodiment, the above step of determining the first installation queue according to the comparison result specifically includes the following steps: If it is determined based on the comparison result that the first evaluation parameter is less than or equal to the evaluation threshold, determining a first server from the plurality of target servers; wherein the first server is a target server that is to be installed after the current moment; The first installation queue is determined based on the target server to be installed at the current moment and the first server.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the first evaluation parameter is less than or equal to the evaluation threshold, it means that the network card bandwidth of the network card bound to the agent at the current moment is surplus, and other target servers can also be installed at the current moment. To this end, the first server is determined among multiple target servers, and the first server is added to the target server to be installed at the current moment to obtain the first installation queue at the current moment.

[0066] Among them, the number of the first servers can be one or more. After adding the first server to the target server to be installed at the current moment, the above-mentioned evaluation parameters and evaluation thresholds can be compared again to determine whether other target servers can still be installed until the first evaluation parameter is greater than the evaluation threshold.

[0067] Furthermore, after the installation of at least one target server in the first installation queue is completed, the above-mentioned evaluation method may be used again to determine the first installation queue after the installation is completed.

[0068] In the above implementation, whether there is idle bandwidth at the current moment can be determined based on the comparison results, and then the first installation queue that needs to be installed at the current moment can be determined, so that the installation queue can be adjusted in real time with the number of servers installed concurrently, thereby effectively reducing the installation delay of each target server on the basis of improving bandwidth utilization.

[0069] In an optional embodiment, the above step of calculating the first evaluation parameter based on the first quantity specifically includes the following steps: Determining a bandwidth peak value during installation of the first installation queue; Performing a calculation on the first number and the bandwidth peak value to obtain a calculation result; Calculating the product of the first number and the evaluation threshold to obtain a product result; A ratio of the operation result to the multiplication result is determined to obtain the first evaluation parameter.

[0070] This disclosure can be Calculate the first evaluation parameter, where is the first evaluation parameter, The peak bandwidth during the installation of the first installation queue, which can also be understood as the peak bandwidth of the network card bound to the agent. The first quantity, Evaluation threshold.

[0071] In the above implementation, the concurrent number of server installations and bandwidth, that is, the first number and the bandwidth peak, can be associated, and the first evaluation parameter can be calculated in real time to measure the bandwidth occupancy at different times, maximize resource utilization, and accurately control the concurrent number of server installations based on the first evaluation parameter.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, the above step of determining the first installation queue according to the comparison result specifically includes the following steps: When the first evaluation parameter is greater than the evaluation threshold, the first installation queue is determined based on the target server to be installed at the current moment.

[0073] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, if the first evaluation parameter is greater than the evaluation threshold, the addition of other target servers to be installed at the current moment will be temporarily suspended, the utilization of the network card bandwidth has been maximized at the current moment, and the first installation queue is determined based on the target servers to be installed at the current moment to ensure the continuity of the server installation process.

[0074] In an optional embodiment, the method described in the above steps further specifically includes the following steps: During the installation process of the target servers in the first installation queue, if it is detected that the installation of any target server in the first installation queue is completed, the target servers in the first installation queue are updated based on the number of target servers in the first installation queue at the current moment.

[0075] As mentioned above, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, during the installation process of the target servers in the first installation queue, if the installation of any one or more target servers in the first installation queue is completed, the evaluation parameter is recalculated based on the number of target servers in the first installation queue to obtain a second evaluation parameter, and the second evaluation parameter is compared with the evaluation threshold to obtain a corresponding comparison result. Finally, through the method mentioned above, the target servers in the first installation queue are updated based on the comparison result to obtain the updated installation queue at the current moment, so that the target servers in the updated installation queue can be installed according to the installation script to form a complete installation processing link, thereby ensuring the flexibility of the server installation process.

[0076] In an optional embodiment, the custom configuration file in the above step includes a reinstallation strategy. After the target server is installed according to the installation script, the following steps are specifically included: In the event that the initial installation of the target server fails, reinstalling the target server based on the reinstallation policy in the custom configuration file; Determining a number of retries for installing the target server; If the number of retries is greater than the number of retries in the reinstallation strategy, it is determined that the installation of the target server has failed, and installation failure information is generated based on the number of retries and the reason for the installation failure.

[0077] If the first installation of the target server fails or times out, the target server with the failed or timed-out installation will be added to the retry queue according to the reinstallation strategy, and the target server will be reinstalled after a while.

[0078] If the number of retries for installing the target server exceeds the number of reinstallations, the target server is determined to have failed installation. The target server that failed the retry is added to the installation failure queue, and an installation failure message is generated based on the number of retries and the reason for the installation failure. The number of retries may or may not include the number of initial installation failures and can be adjusted as needed.

[0079] The agent in the management platform can periodically process the target servers in the installation failure queue and power off the target servers that have failed to be installed.

[0080] To address this, the agent can set up a temporary Preboot eXecution Environment (PXE) for the target server to be installed and perform a hard reboot. After the target server is powered on, it sends a network address request to the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. This network address request is used to obtain an Internet Protocol (IP) address and a DHCP address. After receiving the network address request, the DHCP server assigns an IP address to the target server to be installed, and the installation status of the target server changes from CLOSED to PXE-ING.

[0081] The agent can continuously manage the local DHCP service. If the target server to be installed successfully obtains the DHCP address, the installation status of the target server to be installed is switched to PXE-SUCCESS. After that, the image file is obtained to start the operating system according to the image file. If the operating system is installed successfully, the installation status of the target server to be installed is switched to CONFIGURATION, entering the configuration phase of the target server. When the target server is configured successfully, the installation status of the target server to be installed is switched to AIREADY.

[0082] The agent disclosed in the present invention can automatically transmit the installation status of the target server and execute the corresponding process according to the installation status. Each process can also perform status rollback and update the corresponding installation status.

[0083] Among them, the agent disclosed in the present invention is deployed in a container pod in the Kubernetes environment. The container pod includes a main service container and a sidecar container. The main service container is used to obtain the installation information of the target server to be installed, parse the installation information, and dynamically generate the installation script of the target server; the sidecar container is used to implement services such as PXE and DHCP, and the network interconnection between the host machine where the sidecar container is located and the target server to be installed.
