Embodiment Construction

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0027] An IPMI message monitoring system under an ATCA platform, comprising an intelligent platform management controller IPMC module, an intelligent platform management bus IPMB, and a PC, wherein the system further comprises:

[0028] The IPMI message collection module collects all the messages received and sent by the IPMC module through the dual redundant IPMB bus;

[0029] The IPMC UART sending module appropriately encapsulates the IPMI message collected by the IPMI message collection module, adds the ID identification of the IPMB bus and data verification, etc., and then sends it to the UART communication interface of the IPMC;

[0030] The PC UART receiving module is connected to the IPMC UART communication interface through the PC UART communication interface, receives the IPMI message sent by the IPMCUART sending module, and sends it to the IPMI ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and a system for monitoring IPMI message on an ATCA platform. The system comprises an intelligent platform management controller (IPMC) module; an intelligent platform management bus (IPMB); an IPMI message collecting module for collecting all messages received and transmitted by the IPMC module via the IPMB bus; an IPMC UART transmitting module for packaging the IPMI messages collected by the IPMI message collecting module, and transmitting to the UART communication interface of the IPMC after marking an ID mark of the IPMB bus and verifying data; a PC UART receiving module for receiving the IPMI message transmitted by the IPMC UART transmitting module via a PC UART communication interface and the UART communication interface of the IPMC, and analyzing the received the IPMI message; and a GUI module. The invention provides a software / hardware mechanism to achieve monitoring of the IPMI message between an ShMC and the IPMC module on a blade in an ATCA frame to speed up development process of a blade IPMC and provide an IPMI message analysis tool, which facilitates compatibility test between the ShMC and the blade in the ATCA frame.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an intelligent platform management interface (IPMI) message monitoring system and method under an ATCA platform. Background technique [0002] In the Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture (ATCA architecture), the rack management controller (ShMC) manages the blades in the rack based on the interaction of IPMI messages between them. All rack management functions including blade activation, deactivation process, blade abnormal status management and recovery are completed through IPMI messages. ATCA blades usually indicate the activation and deactivation process of the FRU through the blue LED on the front panel, and the alarm LED indicates abnormal events on the blade, and they provide limited information. ShMCs and blades of ATCA products usually come from different telecom equipment manufacturers. The compatibility test between blades and ShMCs has always played an important role in the application and promotion of ATCA prod...
