Abstract
Description
本發明係關於一種開機測試系統及開機測試方法，尤其是指一種應用於伺服器與智慧網卡之開機測試系統及開機測試方法。The present invention relates to a start-up test system and a start-up test method, in particular to a start-up test system and a start-up test method applied to servers and smart network cards.
在伺服器的製程中，通常在伺服器製造完之後，還要經過循環測試的檢驗後才算完成整個製程，而現有的伺服器除了包含伺服器主機外，還會包含有智慧網卡，也就是伺服器的成品會包含有智慧網卡等元件，因此在進行伺服器之測試時，主要會針對伺服器主機與智慧網卡進行測試。In the manufacturing process of the server, usually after the server is manufactured, the whole process is not completed until after the inspection of the cyclic test, and the existing server not only includes the server host, but also includes a smart network card, that is, The finished product of the server will contain components such as smart network card, so when testing the server, the test will mainly be conducted on the server host and the smart network card.
然而，對於一般的伺服器主機與智慧網卡而言，伺服器主機與智慧網卡之作業系統（Operating System）各自獨立，但伺服器主機還會對插設於伺服器主機之智慧網卡提供電力。也因此在現有的測試環節，通常是透過伺服器之基板管理控制器（BMC）來控制兩者整體的開機測試動作。However, for a general server host and a smart NIC, the operating systems of the server host and the smart NIC are independent, but the server host also provides power to the smart NIC inserted in the server host. Therefore, in the existing test link, the overall startup test action of the two is usually controlled by the baseboard management controller (BMC) of the server.
在實際測試中，伺服器主機與智慧網卡都會各自獨立執行測試程式，而智慧網卡之測試程式在測試完成會停止，等到伺服器主機之測試程式測試完成後，再由BMC來控制整體重開機，進而使智慧網卡在重新啟動後重新執行測試程式。然而，若智慧網卡的測試時間較長，當伺服器主機測試完成之後，需要等待智慧網卡完成測試，相反的，若伺服器主機的測試時間較長，只有確保比智慧網卡的測試時間長即可。In the actual test, the server host and the smart network card will run the test program independently, and the test program of the smart network card will stop when the test is completed. After the test program of the server host is completed, the BMC will control the overall restart. This in turn causes the smart NIC to re-execute the test program after rebooting. However, if the test time of the smart NIC is long, after the server host test is completed, it is necessary to wait for the smart NIC to complete the test. On the contrary, if the test time of the server host is long, it is only necessary to ensure that the test time is longer than that of the smart NIC. .
承上所述，由於兩者的作業系統相互獨立，即兩者的測試程式也互不影響，所以當智慧網卡在測試過程中出現錯誤時，由於伺服器主機的測試程式並不會因為智慧網卡出現錯誤而停止，會繼續重開機而導致智慧網卡的測試程式重新啟動，使智慧網卡一直重新執行測試程式，而無法即時發現智慧網卡執行測試程式時所出現的錯誤。As mentioned above, since the operating systems of the two are independent of each other, that is, the test programs of the two do not affect each other, so when an error occurs during the test of the smart network card, the test program of the server host will not be affected by the smart network card. If there is an error and stop, it will continue to restart and cause the test program of the smart network card to restart, so that the smart network card will always re-run the test program, and the error that occurs when the smart network card is running the test program cannot be found immediately.
此外，由於現有的測試方式也不能保證兩者測試程式運行結束的時間長短，因此每次伺服器主機測試完成後，都需要增加休眠（sleep）時間來確保兩者是否都完成了測試，進而造成時間浪費。甚至當智慧網卡在某次測試中出現當機現象時，不僅不能保留當機現象，還會出現智慧網卡測試掉次數的現象，進而導致智慧網卡與伺服器主機的循環測試次數不同步。In addition, since the existing testing methods cannot guarantee the length of time for the two test programs to finish running, each time the server host test is completed, it is necessary to increase the sleep time to ensure whether the two have completed the test, which will cause Time wasting. Even when the smart NIC crashes in a certain test, not only the crash phenomenon cannot be preserved, but also the number of times the smart NIC is tested will be dropped, which will cause the cycle test times of the smart NIC and the server host to be out of sync.
有鑒於在先前技術中，現有的伺服器主機與智慧網卡之間，往往因為個別測試的時間長短不一定，且由於是透過伺服器主機之BMC進行整體的重開機，因此當智慧網卡之測試出現錯誤時，並無法及時發現而保留錯誤現象，或者伺服器主機需要浪費過多的時間來保證智慧網卡可以完成測試；緣此，本發明的主要目的在於提供一種開機測試系統與一種開機測試方法，以有效的避免浪費過多的等待時間，且能確保伺服器主機與智慧網卡之測試次數相同。In view of the fact that in the prior art, between the existing server host and the smart network card, the length of the individual test is often not the same, and because the overall restart is performed through the BMC of the server host, when the smart network card test occurs. When there is an error, the error phenomenon cannot be found in time and the error phenomenon is retained, or the server host needs to waste too much time to ensure that the smart network card can complete the test; for this reason, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a boot test system and a boot test method to It can effectively avoid wasting too much waiting time, and can ensure that the server host and the smart network card have the same number of tests.

最後，步驟(D)是控制伺服器與智慧網卡同步重新執行伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式。Finally, step (D) is to control the server and the smart network card to synchronize and re-execute the server test program and the network card test program.

請參閱第一圖，第一圖係顯示本發明較佳實施例所提供之開機測試系統之系統示意圖。如第一圖所示，一種開機測試系統100包含一伺服器1以及一智慧網卡2。Please refer to the first figure. The first figure is a system schematic diagram of the power-on test system provided by the preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the first figure, a
伺服器1包含一啟動控制模組11以及一伺服器測試程式執行模組12。啟動控制模組11係具有一第一啟動模式與一第二啟動模式，第一啟動模式係在一重新供電狀態下，使伺服器1保持在一關機狀態；第二啟動模式係在重新供電狀態下，使伺服器進入一開機狀態，且啟動控制模組11係預設為第一啟動模式；更詳細的說，第一啟動模式是指伺服器1在重新通電後還保持著關機狀態，即為電源關閉狀態，而第二啟動模式是指伺服器1在重新通電後會進入開機狀態，即為電源開啟狀態。在本實施例中，啟動控制模組11例如是基板管理控制器（BMC），而第一啟動模式與第二啟動模式則是寫在基板管理控制器內的啟動程式中。The server 1 includes a
伺服器測試程式執行模組12係電性連接於啟動控制模組11，內建有一伺服器測試程式，用以執行伺服器測試程式而產生一第一執行結果，並在第一執行結果為合格時，控制啟動控制模組11將第一啟動模式修改為第二啟動模式。The server test
智慧網卡2係可拆卸地安裝於伺服器1，並且包含一網卡測試模組21以及一監控模組22。網卡測試模組21係內建有一網卡測試程式，並依據網卡測試程式進行初始化測試。監控模組22係電性連接於網卡測試模組21，並以一網路線通訊連結啟動控制模組11，用以在執行網卡測試程式所產生之第二執行結果為合格時，比對啟動控制模組11是否處於第二啟動模式，當啟動控制模組11處於第二啟動模式時，監控模組22更控制啟動控制模組11由第二啟動模式修改為預設之第一啟動模式，並進一步控制伺服器1與智慧網卡2同步重新執行伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式。在本實施例中，網卡測試模組21為智慧網卡2之處理器，而監控模組22為智慧網卡2之主機板模組，且監控模組22是以RJ45連接埠透過網路線連接至啟動控制模組11之RJ45連接埠。The smart network card 2 is detachably installed on the server 1 and includes a network
請繼續參閱第二A圖與第二B圖，第二A圖與第二B圖係顯示本發明較佳實施例所提供之開機測試方法之步驟流程圖。Please continue to refer to the second diagram A and the second diagram B, the second diagram A and the second B diagram are the flowcharts showing the steps of the power-on test method provided by the preferred embodiment of the present invention.
如第一圖至第二B圖所示，一種開機測試方法，係應用於上述之伺服器1與智慧網卡2，且包含以下步驟。首先是同步執行步驟S101與步驟S201，步驟S101是控制伺服器1執行伺服器測試程式，而步驟S201是控制智慧網卡2執行網卡測試程式。更詳細的說，步驟S101是控制伺服器1之伺服器測試程式執行模組12執行內建之伺服器測試程式。而步驟S201是控制智慧網卡2之網卡測試模組21執行內建之網卡測試程式。As shown in Figures 1 to 2B, a power-on test method is applied to the above-mentioned server 1 and smart network card 2, and includes the following steps. First, step S101 and step S201 are executed synchronously. Step S101 controls the server 1 to execute the server test program, and step S201 controls the smart network card 2 to execute the network card test program. More specifically, step S101 is to control the server test
在步驟S101執行完伺服器測試程式後，步驟S102會比對執行伺服器測試程式之第一執行結果是否為合格，若第一執行結果為合格時，便接著步驟S103，然而若第一執行結果並非合格時，則會接著步驟S103a。After the execution of the server test program in step S101, step S102 compares whether the first execution result of executing the server test program is qualified. If the first execution result is qualified, the process proceeds to step S103. If it is not qualified, it will go to step S103a.
承上所述，在步驟S102比對第一執行結果為合格時，步驟S103會將伺服器1之啟動控制模組11由預設之第一啟動模式修改為第二啟動模式；相反的，在步驟S102比對第一執行結果並非合格時，步驟S103a則會停止執行伺服器測試程式。其中，不管是接著進行步驟S103或者是進行步驟S103a，都是伺服器測試程式在產生第一執行結果後的接續執行動作。As mentioned above, when the first execution result is qualified in step S102, step S103 modifies the
另一方面，在步驟S201之智慧網卡2之網卡測試模組21執行網卡測試程式後，步驟S202是比對執行網卡測試程式之第二執行結果是否為合格，若第二執行結果為合格時，便接著步驟S203，然而若第二執行結果並非合格時，則會接著步驟S203a。On the other hand, after the network
承上所述，在步驟S202比對第二執行結果為合格時，步驟S203會進一步比對伺服器1之啟動控制模組11是否處於第二啟動模式；相反的，在步驟S202比對第二執行結果並非合格時，步驟S203a則會停止執行網卡測試程式。其中，不管是接著進行步驟S203或者是進行步驟S203a，都是網卡測試程式在產生第二執行結果後的接續執行動作。Continuing from the above, when the second execution result is qualified in step S202, step S203 further compares whether the
緊接著，在步驟S203比對伺服器1之啟動控制模組11處於第二啟動模式時，會接著進行步驟S204與步驟S205，步驟S204是控制啟動控制模組11由第二啟動模式修改為預設之第一啟動模式，然後步驟S205是控制伺服器1與智慧網卡2同步重新執行伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式；其中，步驟S205實際上是由監控模組22控制伺服器測試程式執行模組12重新執行伺服器測試程式，並同時控制網卡測試模組21重新執行網卡測試程式。Next, when it is compared in step S203 that the
此外，當步驟S203比對伺服器1之啟動控制模組11並非處於第二啟動模式時，會接著步驟S204a來停止執行網卡測試程式。In addition, when step S203 compares that the
請繼續參閱第三圖，第三圖係顯示在本發明較佳實施例中，伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式對照於啟動控制模組之啟動模式及監控模組比對執行結果，從開始測試到同步重新執行測試之時序示意圖。Please continue to refer to the third figure. The third figure shows that in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the server test program and the network card test program are compared with the startup mode of the startup control module and the execution result of the monitoring module. Schematic diagram of the timing to re-execute the test synchronously.
如第一圖至第三圖所示，啟動控制模組11之一啟動模式時序T1a是隨著伺服器測試程式之測試結果而變動，伺服器測試程式之一測試時序T2a則是在通過（合格）與不通過（不合格）之間做切換，而智慧網卡2之監控模組22是以一監控時序T3a不斷監控啟動控制模組11是否處於第二啟動模式，網卡測試模組21則是以一測試時序T4a則是在通過（合格）與不通過（不合格）之間做切換。As shown in Figures 1 to 3, a start-up mode sequence T1a of the start-up
如上所述，當伺服器測試程式之測試完成時，測試時序T2a會從未通過變成通過，同時還會如啟動模式時序T1a所示的控制啟動控制模組11由預設之第一啟動模式修改為第二啟動模式；其中，監控模組22之監控時序T3a例如是每5秒詢問一次啟動控制模組11是否處於第二啟動模式，即以監控時序T3a每固定時距切換至「是」的方式呈現，因此當監控模組22偵測到啟動控制模組11之啟動模式時序T1a切換至第二啟動模式時，監控模組22之監控時序T3a會維持在「是」的判斷結果，也就是指啟動控制模組11是處於第二啟動模式下，而網卡測試模組21之測試時序T4a則是在測試通過後透過監控時序T3a比對到啟動控制模組11是處於第二啟動模式，然後會先控制啟動控制模組11之啟動模式時序T1a切換回第一啟動模式，然後再控制伺服器測試程式執行模組12與網卡測試模組21同步重新執行伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式，意即使測試時序T2a與測試時序T4a同時恢復至「未通過」。As mentioned above, when the test of the server test program is completed, the test sequence T2a will change from fail to pass, and at the same time, the
此外，在本實施例中，主要是以啟動控制模組11之第一啟動模式與第二啟動模式作為伺服器測試程式是否合格（通過測試）的依據，但第一啟動模式或第二啟動模式並不會直接影響到伺服器1的開關機，舉例而言，當啟動控制模組11處於第一啟動模式時，監控模組22會判斷伺服器測試程式尚未通過測試，或者是測試結果不合格，進而停止執行網卡測試程式，而當啟動控制模組11處於第二啟動模式時，監控模組22會判斷伺服器測試程式合格，進而控制伺服器測試程式執行模組12重新執行伺服器測試程式，並同步控制網卡測試模組21重新執行網卡測試程式，以模擬伺服器1與智慧網卡2重新通電啟動的運作，因此並非真的重新通電，故啟動控制模組11之第一啟動模式與第二啟動模式只是作為判斷的依據。In addition, in this embodiment, the first activation mode and the second activation mode of the
請繼續參閱第四圖，第四圖係顯示在本發明較佳實施例中，伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式對照於啟動控制模組之啟動模式及監控模組比對執行結果，從開始測試到伺服器測試程式發生錯誤之時序示意圖。Please continue to refer to the fourth figure. The fourth figure shows that in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the server test program and the network card test program are compared to the startup mode of the startup control module and the execution result of the monitoring module. Schematic diagram of the timing until an error occurs in the server test program.
如第一圖至第四圖所示，若伺服器測試程式一直無法通過時，其測試時序T2b會保持在未通過，啟動控制模組11之啟動模式時序T1b也會一直保持在預設的第一啟動模式，而一直監控啟動控制模組11是否處於第二啟動模式的監控模組22之監控時序T3b也會因為偵測不到啟動控制模組11切換至第二啟動模式而持續進行監控；因此，當網卡測試模組21之測試時序T4b測試通過後，會因為監控模組22未偵測到啟動控制模組11切換至第二啟動模式而不去控制啟動控制模組11與網卡測試模組21同步重新執行伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式，進而停留在通過狀態下，藉以讓使用者可以得知伺服器測試程式出現錯誤現象。As shown in Figures 1 to 4, if the server test program fails to pass all the time, the test sequence T2b will remain as failed, and the activation mode sequence T1b of the
綜上所述，由於本發明是利用伺服器測試程式執行模組與網卡測試模組同步執行伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式，然後透過監控模組監控啟動控制模組之啟動模式變化，藉以在智慧網卡之網卡測試程式完成後，透過啟動控制模組之啟動模式變化來判斷伺服器測試程式是否合格，以進一步決定是否要同步重新執行伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式；藉此，本發明確實可以有效的使伺服器與智慧網卡可以藉由同步重新執行而確保伺服器測試程式與網卡測試程式的循環測試次數一致，且當伺服器測試程式或網卡測試程式其中任一者之測試結果為不合格時，便會透過停止執行來保留當下的現象，進而避免測試出錯之現象因為整體之重新執行而被洗掉，有利於使用者進行除錯的作業。To sum up, because the present invention uses the server test program execution module and the network card test module to execute the server test program and the network card test program synchronously, and then monitors the change of the startup mode of the startup control module through the monitoring module, so as to achieve After the network card test program of the smart network card is completed, it is judged whether the server test program is qualified by changing the startup mode of the activation control module, so as to further determine whether to re-execute the server test program and the network card test program synchronously; It can effectively make the server and the smart network card re-execute synchronously to ensure that the cycle test times of the server test program and the network card test program are consistent, and when the test result of either the server test program or the network card test program is inconsistent. When it is qualified, the current phenomenon will be retained by stopping the execution, so as to avoid the phenomenon of test errors being washed out due to the re-execution of the whole, which is beneficial for the user to debug the operation.
藉由以上較佳具體實施例之詳述，係希望能更加清楚描述本發明之特徵與精神，而並非以上述所揭露的較佳具體實施例來對本發明之範疇加以限制。相反地，其目的是希望能涵蓋各種改變及具相等性的安排於本發明所欲申請之專利範圍的範疇內。Through the detailed description of the preferred embodiments above, it is hoped that the features and spirit of the present invention can be described more clearly, and the scope of the present invention is not limited by the preferred embodiments disclosed above.
