Rack management controller, power management program update system and method

Abstract

The invention provides a rack management controller, a power management program update system and method. The rack management controller comprises a network interface, a power management program storage chip, a main control chip and a power connector; the network interface is used for receiving a target power management program transmitted by an external client, transmitting the target power management program to the power management program storage chip, receiving a target instruction transmitted by the external client and transmitting the target instruction to the main control chip; the power management program storage chip is used for storing the received target power management program; and the main control chip is used for acquiring the target power management program from the power management program storage chip according to the target instruction, and performing corresponding management on an external power module through a power connector according to the target power management program. By adopting the technical scheme of the invention, the safety of the power management program storage chip can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of communication technology, in particular to a rack management controller, a system and a method for updating a power management program. Background technique [0002] In the intelligent cabinet, the rack management controller is used to control and detect the running status of the whole cabinet, including managing the power modules of the whole cabinet. When managing the power module, it is necessary to store the corresponding power management program on the specific power management program storage chip, and run the power management program through the main control chip to realize the corresponding management of the power module of the intelligent cabinet; for different Models and the same model may have different management requirements for power modules in different periods. Therefore, the power management program also needs to be different. It is often necessary to update the power management program to implemen...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, when updating the power management program, it is usually necessary to manually disassemble the power management program storage chip and insert it into the burner, and load the new power management program into the power management program storage chip through the burner, and then the loading is successful. Manually re-install the power management program storage chip, and then run the new power management program through the main control chip to complete the update of the power management program; in the process of manually removing and installing the power management program storage chip, it is easy to cause the power management program to be stored. The chip is damaged, for example, the pins of the power management program storage chip are damaged, the power management program storage chip is broken down by human body static electricity, etc., which affect the security of the power management program storage chip
