Server rack system

摘要

A server rack system includes a rack, a rack management module, a plurality of servers, a management network connection module and a power module. The rack management module is located in the rack and coupled to a management network line. The servers are located in the rack and respectively have a baseboard management controller (BMC), in which each of the BMCs is used for monitoring a working state of the server where the BMC resides. The power module provides a working voltage required by the rack management module, the management network connection module and the servers. The rack management module obtains overall power consumption information through the power module, and obtains power consumption information of each of the servers through the management network line, and is used for managing the servers according to the overall power consumption information and the power consumption information of each of the servers.

1. A server rack system, comprising:
a rack; a rack management module, located in the rack and coupled to a management network line; a plurality of servers, located in the rack, wherein each of the servers respectively has a baseboard management controller (BMC), and each of the BMCs is used for monitoring a working state of the server where the BMC resides; a management network connection module, located in the rack and coupled to the management network line, and used for connecting the rack management module and the BMCs through the management network line; a power module, electrically connected to the rack management module, the management network connection module and the servers, used for providing a working voltage required by the rack management module, the management network connection module and the servers, and controlled by the rack management module; and at least one identification module, located in the rack and corresponding to each of the servers, wherein the rack management module obtains overall power consumption information of the server rack system through the power module, and obtains power consumption information of each of the servers from each of the BMCs through the management network line; the rack management module manages each of the servers through each of the BMCs according to the overall power consumption information and the power consumption information of each of the servers; when any one of the servers is inserted in the rack and produces a corresponding relation with any one of the identification modules, the server generates an identification code signal; the BMC of the server obtains the identification code signal, and sends the identification code signal to the rack management module through the management network line; a corresponding relation record between physical locations in the rack and identification codes is stored in the rack management module beforehand, and after receiving the identification code signal, the rack management module identifies a physical location of the server in the rack according to the corresponding relation record.
