The invention discloses a node switching method, device and
system and a computer readable storage medium, and belongs to the field of main and standby node switching, in the invention, a standby node can periodically read a
heartbeat signal newly written by a main node in a block
chain system, and then under the condition that the read
heartbeat signal reflects that the main node is not survived, the standby node can be switched to the standby node; according to the method and the device, the data
fingerprint newly written by the main node in the block
chain system is read, and the self is upgraded to the main node of the computer
system under the condition that the read data
fingerprint reflects that the main node is consistent with the overall data of the self, and due to the standby node in the method and the device, the self can be upgraded to the main node of the computer
system without depending on a network between the main node and the standby node. Through the
heartbeat signal and the data
fingerprint in the block
chain system, the survival state of the main node and the
data consistency between the main node and the standby node are verified, even if the network between the main node and the standby node is disconnected, the standby node cannot be blindly upgraded to the main node, and the brain split condition and the data conflict are avoided.
