Embodiment Construction

[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, specific embodiments will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] figure 2 The schematic diagram of the monitoring scheme provided by the embodiment of the present invention, such as figure 2 As shown, the management control terminal 220 monitors the server 210 to obtain the software and hardware information of the server 210. The hardware information is obtained through the BMC 212 of the motherboard platform, and the software information is obtained through the firmware (firmware) 211 installed on the BMC 212. And, the software Information and hardware information are all stored in the RAM of BMC 212, then hardware information and software information are delivered to management control terminal 220 together through Ethernet interface 213, because all are delivered to management control terminal 220 by BM...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for monitoring a server and the server adopting the same. The server comprises a main board management controller and firmware arranged in the main board management controller; the firmware performs loaded operation after the server operates so as to acquire the in-band information of the server; and the main board management controller is used for acquiring the out-band information of the server. The server is unnecessarily installed with agent software, thereby reducing installation trouble; the management controller acquires the monitoring information only by an out-band interface and unnecessarily supports the in-band interface protocol, so that the software on the management control end can be easily written, and when the software is installed, the network partition is unnecessary; and the in-band and out-band information can be sent to the management control end by a uniform network interface, so work load for installing the software is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to computer technology, in particular to a server monitoring method and server. Background technique [0002] The system monitoring of the server is an indispensable part of the stable operation of the server. Through monitoring, the failure of the server can be found in time and certain measures can be taken. At present, there are two ways to obtain the monitoring information of the server: the monitoring information of the basic hardware is realized through the chip BMC (the management controller of the main board of the Baseboard Management Controller), and the BMC obtains the information of each sensor on the main board, which is independent of the operating system and belongs to a An out-of-band management method. If you need to obtain in-band (in-band) software information, you need to install an agent software in the operating system, through which you can obtain information about the operating system, application software...
