Problems solved by technology

[0003] The existing BMC failure monitoring method is to monitor the operation status of the BMC through the watchdog inside the BMC. When a fault occurs in the BMC, restart the BMC manually. controller, but when the watchdog inside the baseboard management controller has a problem, it is often impossible to find the problem by itself, especially after some kernel errors Kernel Panic, the watchdog often cannot work normally, so it cannot control the baseboard management The monitoring reliability of the baseboard management controller is low, resulting in the untimely recovery of the baseboard management controller, and the operation of manually restarting the baseboard management controller is complicated.

Embodiment 1

[0048] see figure 1 , figure 1 It is an implementation flowchart of a BMC fault monitoring method in an embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a programmable system-on-a-chip, and the method may include the following steps:

[0049] S101: Obtain the running state information of the baseboard management controller.

[0050] Such as figure 2 As shown, a programmable system-on-a-chip PSoC that is preconfigured independently of the baseboard management controller can be accessed via the I 2 The C bus establishes a communication connection between the baseboard management controller and the programmable system-on-chip. During the running process of the baseboard management controller, the running state information of the baseboard management controller is acquired in real time or at regular time intervals. The running status information may be a running voltage signal, a heartbeat signal, etc. of the baseboard management controller.

[0051] S102: Determine ...

Embodiment 2

[0058] see image 3 , image 3 It is another implementation flowchart of the fault monitoring method of the baseboard management controller in the embodiment of the present invention, which is applied to a programmable system on a chip. The method may include the following steps:

[0059] S301: Perform a timing reset operation when receiving a heartbeat signal sent by the baseboard management controller.

[0060] The programmable SoC is set to perform a timing reset operation every time it receives a heartbeat signal sent by the baseboard management controller. By performing timing reset, the influence of previous timing results on current monitoring is avoided, and the accuracy of monitoring the baseboard management controller is improved.

[0061] S302: pass I 2 The C communication protocol receives the heartbeat signal sent by the baseboard management controller.

[0062] During the operation of the baseboard management controller, the I 2 The C communication protocol ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a baseboard management controller fault monitoring method, which is applied to a single chip of a programmable system, and comprises the following steps of: acquiring running state information of a baseboard management controller; judging whether the baseboard management controller breaks down or not according to the running state information; and if yes, controlling the baseboard management controller to perform a restart operation. By applying the technical scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention, the reliability of monitoring the baseboard management controller is improved, the failure of the baseboard management controller is ensured to be recovered in time, and the restart operation process of the baseboard management controller is simplified. The invention further discloses a baseboard management controller fault monitoring device and equipment and a storage medium, which have corresponding technical effects.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of computer application technology, in particular to a method, device, equipment and computer-readable storage medium for fault monitoring of a baseboard management controller. Background technique [0002] The rapid development of the Internet has brought prosperity to the server market. A large amount of data storage and calculation need servers to complete, and large-scale websites require a huge number of servers. The server must be monitored and managed by the baseboard management controller (BMC) during the use of the server. It is particularly important to maintain the survival mechanism of the baseboard management controller. If the baseboard management controller fails or fails, the baseboard management controller should be restarted. to restore its functionality. [0003] The existing BMC failure monitoring method is to monitor the operation status of the BMC through the watchdog inside the BMC. Wh...
