A method for monitoring and managing a rack server is provided. The method includes: editing, in a rack management controller RMC for monitoring and managing the rack server in a centralized manner, a configuration file based on configuration information regarding the numbers and positions of server nodes, node mid-planes, fan control boards, fans and power supplies in a rack; and automatically monitoring and managing, by the RMC, components based on the configuration file by the RMC automatically acquiring accurate numbers and positions of nodes and power supplies corresponding to the rack configuration to select a corresponding cooling-speed regulation curve. With the method, racks with different configurations can be dynamically monitored by modifying the configuration file including the configuration information of the rack and uploading the modified configuration file.

Monitoring and management method for complete machine cabinet server

A method and an apparatus for limiting rack power consumption are provided. The method includes: determining a rack power consumption limitation threshold; determining a current power consumption limitation mode; calculating a total power consumption limit for nodes in a rack; calculating a power consumption threshold for each of the nodes based on the current power consumption limitation mode, the rack power consumption limitation threshold and the total power consumption limit for the nodes in the rack; and transmitting the power consumption threshold for each of the nodes to the node, to enable the node to limit power consumption according to the received power consumption threshold.

Method and apparatus for limiting rack power consumption

A rack fan speed regulation method based on a fan table provided in a node BMC is provided, which includes: providing a fan table reflecting a rack fan speed regulation policy in a BMC of each node server; acquiring, by the node BMC, a parameter reflecting a heat dissipation condition of a node motherboard; and acquiring, by the node BMC based on the speed regulation policy, a fan rotation speed corresponding to the parameter rapidly. With the rack fan speed regulation method, the node BMC can rapidly obtain parameters reflecting a heat dissipation condition of a node motherboard, and rapidly obtain a corresponding fan rotation speed based on the speed regulation policy. In this case, heat dissipation of the node can be controlled effectively in a timely manner, thereby ensuring heat dissipation of the rack.
