Embodiment 1

[0044] see figure 1 , figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of a jig plate for a server to grab a SATA hard disk provided in the embodiment of the present application. A BIOS system is installed in the server of this implementation. Depend on figure 1 It can be seen that the fixture board used for the server to grab the SATA hard disk in this embodiment mainly includes: MCU, dial switch and power supply module. The fixture board is a kind of PCB board, mainly including MCU and some peripherals, wherein, the input end of the MCU is connected to the BMC through the serial port, the BMC is connected to the PCH of the server motherboard through the KCS link, and the output end of the MCU is through the coaxial line The cable is connected with the protocol analyzer, and the input end of the MCU is also connected with the DIP switch. The MCU is used to analyze registers related to SATA faults, determine the type of SATA fault, and judge whether the SATA fault type is con...

Embodiment 2

[0054] exist figure 1 On the basis of the illustrated embodiment see figure 2 , figure 2 It is a schematic structural diagram of a system for a server to capture a SATA hard disk provided in an embodiment of the present application. Depend on figure 2 It can be seen that the system in this embodiment mainly includes: PCH, BMC, protocol analyzer and the above-mentioned fixture board. The PCH and BMC are components in the server, and the server is provided with a BIOS system in this embodiment.

[0055] The BIOS system in the server is referred to as BIOS. BIOS is used to monitor SATA faults in real time, collect register information related to SATA faults, and send register information to BMC through KCS link. BMC is used to send register information to the controller through RS-232 serial port. Tool board. In this embodiment, the principle of the server grabbing the SATA hard disk trace can be found in image 3 . image 3 The QPI in the middle is Quick Path Interconn...

Embodiment 3

[0059] exist figure 1 , figure 2 and image 3 On the basis of the illustrated embodiment see Figure 4 , Figure 4 It is a schematic flowchart of a method for a server to capture a SATA hard disk provided in the embodiment of the present application. Before implementing this method, the hardware needs to use a fixture board and make relevant circuit connections. The working principle and method of the fixture board are in figure 1 It has been described in detail in the above-mentioned embodiments, and will not be repeated here. then according to image 3 Schematic diagram of how the server captures the trace of the SATA hard disk and connects the relevant circuits.

[0060] Depend on Figure 4 As can be seen, the method for the server to grab the SATA hard disk in this embodiment mainly includes the following processes:

[0061] S1: The BIOS obtains the SATA fault through the SATA link.

[0062] This embodiment can directly obtain the SATA fault from the SATA link t...

Abstract

This application discloses a fixture board, system and method for a server to grab a SATA hard disk. The fixture board includes an MCU, a dial switch and a power supply module. The input end of the MCU is connected to the BMC through a serial port, and the BMC is connected to The road is connected to the PCH of the server motherboard, the output end of the MCU is connected to the protocol analyzer through the coaxial cable, and the input end of the MCU is also connected to the DIP switch. The system includes BIOS, BMC, protocol analyzer and fixture board. The method comprises: the BIOS obtains the SATA failure through the SATA link; according to the SATA failure, the BIOS collects the registers related to the SATA failure, and sends the registers related to the SATA failure to the BMC through the KCS link; the BMC sends the registers related to the SATA failure Send to the MCU of the fixture board; the MCU analyzes the SATA fault, and triggers the protocol analyzer according to the type of SATA fault to be captured selected by the DIP switch. Through the application, the reliability, flexibility and efficiency of SATA fault capture can be greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of server testing, in particular to a fixture board, system and method for a server to grab a SATA hard disk. Background technique [0002] SATA (Serial Advanced Technology Attachment, Serial Advanced Technology Attachment) hard disk is currently the most widely used type of hard disk in the server field, and its hard disk interface is based on the SATA protocol. For different application scenarios and different customer application models, different types of SATA hard disks need to be used. If the SATA hard disk is not compatible with the server storage subsystem, it will cause failures such as disk failure and speed reduction of the SATA hard disk in the system. If the SATA hard disk is used as the system disk, it will cause more serious failures such as downtime. Therefore, it is an important issue to ensure the compatibility between the SATA hard disk and the server storage subsystem, and to v...
