Remote control system for power supply switches of machine room servers

Abstract

The invention discloses a remote control system for power supply switches of machine room servers. The remote control system comprises a plurality of servers and a remote control host, wherein a control card is correspondingly embedded into each server; each control card comprises a logic processor; the logic processor is bidirectionally connected with a wireless network communication module; the output end of the logic processor is connected with a switch instruction control module; the switch instruction control module is connected with a boot-strap / shutdown and reboot terminal on a server mainboard; the power supply end of the logic processor is connected with a power supply module; the control cards form a wireless connection network by the wireless network communication module, and at least one control card is connected with the server corresponding to the control card by a communication port to form a master control server; and the master control server is connected with the remote control host through network. In the remote control system, the trouble of performing centralized management by wiring in each conventional server is avoided, and the operating state of each server can be monitored and operated remotely in real time by the remote control host.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a remote control technology, in particular to a remote control system for a server power switch in a computer room. Background technique [0002] With the advent of the Internet era, people's demand for information services is also increasing, and the servers carrying information service management are also increasing. In order to ensure the smooth and stable information services, people pay more and more attention to the normal operation of servers. If the server occasionally goes down or needs to be restarted and shut down, according to the current situation, technicians often go to the site of the computer room to conduct on-site investigation and key processing. However, restarting or shutting down of the server is not timed. For this reason, this type of traditional server operation method brings certain inconvenience to the life and work of the server operator. [0003] In order to realize the remote terminal control ser...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the restart or shutdown of the server is not timed. For this, this kind of traditional server operation method brings some inconvenience to the life and work of the server operator.

[0003] In order to realize the remote terminal control server on / off operation, although the remote control card expansion module or the network power controller can be realized at present, there are some defects. The remote control card expansion module can only be controlled one-to-one, and the deployment cost is too high. High, poor compatibility; the network power controller adopts the control method of directly cutting off the power supply of the server power outlet to turn off the host and then turn on the power to wake up, which not only easily leads to damage to the server, but also the device is large in size and takes up more space. The high-voltage power supply that needs to be cut off also brings safety hazards to the computer room

[0004] Although the patent No. 200820135993.3, the utility model patent titled "Computer Power Remote Controller", has improved the former two, but there are also some deficiencies: (1) The computer power remote controller adopts a relay The module and the power control line connector are directly connected by signal lines, the number of servers is limited, and the expandability is poor, which is not conducive to large-scale application in the computer room; (3) The control lacks reliability, and there is no redundant structure in the device. Once any part of the device is damaged, it will or will cause the paralysis of the entire control network
