Description

A Method of Batch Server Memory Fault Detection Using IPMI Tool

technical field

The present invention relates to a method for batch memory problem detection under the condition that a batch deployment server has a bmc record memory fault function, specifically a method for using an IPMI tool to detect a batch server memory fault.

Background technique

In computers, Machine Check Architecture (MCA) refers to a mechanism for the CPU to report hardware errors in the operating system. It is a ras feature of the CPU; for example, when an ECC error occurs, such as a memory error, it is located in the CPU. Various model-specific registers (MSRs) will detect errors and trigger the MCA mechanism; then a system interrupt will be generated, and various state information at that time will be recorded by various registers (MSRs) and handed over to the bmc chip for recording , so the current motherboard integrated bmc chip can record memory operation errors, especially ECC error reporting, bmc has an independent network configuration, which can be configured as an independent ip, and the bmc ip addresses of all machines can be configured as the same network segment for centralized management.

At present, a large number of Internet users purchase batch servers, and with the gradual maturity of remote management technology, the management of servers no longer depends on the local management of the computer room where the server is located, but is controlled remotely through the network, so that when the server has a memory failure such as ECC ERROR error , if you do not pass the bmc check, you will not be able to find the problem in time, which may affect the stability of the later server operation, so you need to regularly check the bmc log of all servers, but for machines deployed in batches, it takes too long to test one by one , work efficiency is too low.

Contents of the invention

The present invention gathers all the collected information through the method of checking and collecting the ipmi interface data of each server in batches, screens out problematic machines, and performs fault maintenance in time.

A method of using IPMI tools to detect batch server memory faults, record and scan the bmc logs of all servers in the network through the ipmi tool, analyze the machines with memory problems from the results, and perform batch checks on the batch servers in the network through scripts, Quickly confirm the memory ECC error reporting machine, and realize the memory batch inspection of batch machines.

1) Find a Windows system machine, connect to the network after configuring the ip, and ensure that it is connected to the user server management network.

2), modify the default script to match the actual network environment:

3) Execute the script on the windows machine, cooperate with the ipmitool.exe and libeay32.dll tool files, and put the final result of the execution in the result.txt file in the current directory.

4) Perform memory fault handling on the machine that detects a problem.

The default implementation script sel.bat is as follows:

echo off

for /L %%i in (82,1,90) do (

echo ################################################## ################################################>> result.txt

echo 10.7.12.%%i% >>result.txt

ipmitool.exe -H 10.7.12.%%i% -U admin -P admin sel list | find /i "ecc" >> result.txt

echo *************************************************** ***********************************************>> result.txt

).

The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

1. Automatic batch inspection to improve efficiency.

2. The script can be customized, suitable for different network configuration environments.

3. The implementation method is simple and easy to operate.

Detailed ways

Implementation process:

The default implementation script sel.bat is as follows:

echo off

for /L %%i in (82,1,90) do (

echo ################################################## ################################################>> result.txt

echo 10.7.12.%%i% >>result.txt

ipmitool.exe -H 10.7.12.%%i% -U admin -P admin sel list | find /i "ecc" >> result.txt

echo *************************************************** ***********************************************>> result.txt

)

1. Find a windows system machine, connect to the network after configuring ip, and ensure that it is connected to the user server management network.

2. Modify the default script to match the actual network environment:

If the on-site network segment is 192.168.1.1-192.168.1.200, modify the sel.bat accordingly:

for /L %%i in (82,1,90) do (

Change to for /L %%i in (1,1,200) do (

echo 10.7.12.%%i% >>result.txt

Change to echo 192.168.1.%%i% >>result.txt

ipmitool.exe -H 10.7.12.%%i% -U admin -P admin sel list | find /i "ecc" >> result.txt is changed to ipmitool.exe -H 192.168.1.%%i% -U admin -P admin sel list | find /i "ecc" >> result.txt

3. Execute the script on the windows machine, cooperate with the ipmitool.exe and libeay32.dll tool files, and put the final result of the execution in the result.txt file in the current directory. The format is as follows. The following example shows that the server on 10.7.12.82 has an ECC error , the other empty description does not:

#################################################### ###############################################

10.7.12.82

1 | Pre-Init Time-stamp | Memory #0x16 | uncorrected-ECC Assert

3 | Pre-Init Time-stamp | Memory #0x16 | uncorrected-ECC Assert

***************************************************** ***********************************************

#################################################### ###############################################

10.7.12.83

***************************************************** ***********************************************

#################################################### ###############################################

10.7.12.84

***************************************************** ***********************************************

4. Troubleshoot the memory of the machine where the problem is detected.
