Embodiment Construction

[0014] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0015] The method introduced in the present invention is to connect multiple states and control signals such as SMbus bus, system serial port, computing board presence information, fan speed, fan control, etc. on each computing board to the centralized management module. The core of the centralized management module is 1 A single BMC in the centralized management module manages and monitors all computing nodes.

[0016] The device introduced in the present invention includes: (1) multi-computing nodes connected to the centralized management module for status, monitoring, and management signals; (2) a centralized management module including a single BMC.

[0017] in:

[0018] (1) Multi-computing nodes connected to the status, monitoring, management and other sign...

Abstract

The invention provides a management method and a management device for managing multiple computing boards by a single BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) and relates to a monitoring and management method of multiple computing nodes in a computer system. According to the method and device provided by the invention, a plurality of state and control signals of a SMbus bus, a system serial port, a computer in-position information, fan rotating speed, fan control and the like of each computing board are connected to a central management module, the core of the central management module is a BMC, and all computing nodes are managed and monitored by virtue of the single BMC in the central management module, so that the management resource is saved and the integral cost is lowered, and a simple multi-calculating node management strategy is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for monitoring and managing multiple computing nodes in a computer system, in particular to a method and device for managing multiple computing boards with a single BMC. Background technique [0002] BMC (Baseboard Management Controller, Baseboard Management Controller) supports the industry-standard IPMI specification. This specification describes the management functions already built into the motherboard. These features include: local and remote diagnostics, console support, configuration management, hardware management and troubleshooting. [0003] The BMC provides the following features: compatibility with IPMI 1.0, tachometer input for fan speed monitoring, pulse width regulator output for fan speed control, push button input for front panel buttons and switches, and server console port One serial port for multiplexing, remote access and ICMB (Intelligent Chassis Management Bus) support, three I2C master ports ...
