AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This technology allows for accurate detection of servers that are parted into multiple cabinets with different types of devices installed therein by capturing their monitored status over an intermediate layer called the network interface card (NIC). By analyzing this captured image, it becomes easier than ever before when trying to determine if any issues exist or how they might affect performance. Overall, these technical features improve the overall functionality and responsiveness of computer systems while reducing energy usage compared to traditional methods like wired connections.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical solution described in this patents relates to improving the communication between different components within an electronic device's chassis called the backbone or mainframe. These components include processors, memories, input/output devices like displays, speakers, sensors, etc., which communicate wirelessly over wired networks. Current methods require multiple requests per request for accurate tracking of individual component levels during operation, leading to lower response time when changing environmental conditions affecting their performance.

Embodiment Construction

[0020] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] as attached figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for obtaining the monitoring information of the server node of the whole rack, through the centralized monitoring management unit (RMC, Rack Management Controler) of the whole rack server and the node middle board, based on the OEM command module added in the node BMC to update Quickly and efficiently obtain information from node BMC, such as server node power-on / off status, temperature information, network information, FRU information, asset information, node power consumption, etc.

[0022] Its specific implementation process is:

[0023] Set up the hardware part. In the whole cabinet server composed of several server nodes, each server node has a built-in BMC chip, and the centralized monitoring and management unit RMC and the node mid-plane are installed in the wh

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for obtaining monitoring information of complete cabinet server nodes. The concrete implementation process is that a hardware part is arranged; baseboard management controller (BMC) chips are arranged in each server node in a complete cabinet server composed of a plurality of server nodes, and a rack management controller (RMC) and a node middle plate are installed in the complete cabinet server; an OEM command module is added to a BMC; a concrete data format of BMC OEM CMD modules of the nodes is defined; that is, a CMD module format is adopted for an OEM command, and a plurality of CMD modules are supported to perform obtaining and sending simultaneously; the node middle plate sends OEM CMD module data to the BMC to obtain node information; and the RMC obtains node information between node middle plate, and performs monitors and heat dissipation control in real time. Compared with the prior art, the method for obtaining the monitoring information of the complete cabinet server nodes simplifies the communication process between the node BMC and the node middle plate, the node middle plate can obtain plenty of data in one time from the node BMC, particularly real-time change information, and the method has great benefit for improving system response time and is high in practicality.
