| Summary: | 碩士 === 世新大學 === 資訊管理學研究所(含碩專班) === 95 === The BMC is the core to monitor servers by IPMI. The BMC is a hardware controller to integrate A/D converter for monitoring voltage, counter for monitoring speed, PWM or D/A for driving the fan, as well as communications with external sensors, general purpose I/O, serial ports I2C bus.
The BMC collect health and status of servers. It can perform the capability of monitoring different voltages, temperatures and fan speeds. In case of any unqualified situation detected, the BMC is possible to cut off power, to record events, and to send alert to the central administration server through LAN or modem.
In this research, a server resource management application is proposed based on the BMC. In accordance with IPMI, the BMC is managed to monitor many servers in a PC cluster through network environment. The focus of this research is to propose an aggressive mechanism for managing resource, and to guarantee the correctness of messages between managed servers and BMC.
