Fig. 1 is a system block diagram of a method, apparatus, electronic device, and computer-readable medium for file management of a virtual switching matrix, according to an exemplary embodiment.

As shown in fig. 1, thesystem architecture 10 of the virtual switching matrix may include amain frame master 101, mainframe service boards 102, 103, a plurality ofstandby frame master 105, 106, and a plurality of standbyframe service boards 107, 108, 109, 110. Network devices may also be included to provide a medium for communication links between themain frame master 101, the mainframe service boards 102, 103, the plurality ofspare frame master 105, 106, and the plurality of spareframe service boards 107, 108, 109, 110. The network devices may include various connection types, such as wired, wireless communication links, or fiber optic cables, among others.

The virtual switching matrix is a novel network device virtualization technology for virtualizing a plurality of network devices into one network device. In the prior art, operations such as device management and configuration in the frame device are performed on the master control, and version downloading is also performed. Firstly, version file information is acquired, and file names and equipment space judgment are carried out; acquiring a business board version file to a main control temporary directory; establishing socket communication with the service board to tell the service board that version file information needs to be received; transmitting the version file to the service board; the business board checks version files to prevent the files from being damaged; the switching and deleting of the version files are operated on the main control, and then the main control informs the service board through socket communication, and the service board completes corresponding operation.

Since in the VSM environment, the version download between different frames is performed by means of command synchronization, that is, the mainframe master board 101 only knows the own download condition of the frame, and does not know the version download condition of the multiple standbyframe master boards 105, 106 and theservice boards 107, 108, 109, 110 of the multiple standby frames. Thus, when the downloading of the backup frame version is problematic, the user does not know that the version has failed to be downloaded.

In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the main framemain control board 101 may, for example, download a target file; the main framemain control board 101 and the standby framemain control boards 105 and 106 perform command synchronization so that the standby framemain control boards 105 and 106 download the target file; the main framemain control board 101 and the standby framemain control boards 105 and 106 traverse the service boards under the frame and send the target files to thecorresponding service boards 102, 103, 107, 108, 109 and 110; thebusiness boards 102, 103, 107, 108, 109 and 110 check the target file and generate return information according to the check result; the main framemain control board 101 generates a management result of the target file based on the return information.

Before the main framemain control board 101 downloads the target file, for example, the main framemain control board 101 may also obtain file information of the target file; and judging whether the file information meets preset conditions, and generating error warning information when the file information does not meet the preset conditions.

Before the main framemain control board 101 downloads the target file, for example, it may further determine whether the remaining space of all service boards in thevirtual switch matrix 10 is greater than the capacity of the target file based on the file information; and generating error warning information when the residual space of the service board is smaller than the capacity of the target file.

Fig. 2 is a flow chart illustrating a method of file management of a virtual switching matrix, according to an exemplary embodiment. Thefile management method 20 of the virtual switch matrix at least includes steps S202 to S210.

As shown in fig. 2, in S202, the main frame main control board downloads the target file.

In S204, the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board perform command synchronization to enable the standby frame main control board to download the target file. In the VSM environment, command synchronization is performed between the main frame and the standby frame, that is, the operation is performed on the main frame, and the standby frame also automatically performs the same operation, so that the version file is downloaded to the temporary directories of the main frame and the standby frame through the TCP protocol.

In S206, the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board traverse the service boards under the present frame and send the target file to the corresponding service boards. The master control traverses all service boards of the frame, when judging that the service board type is the selected service board type, the master control establishes socket communication with the service board, and then sends information such as version file names, sizes and the like to the service board. The service board allocates space for the receiving buffer and places the received version file into the temporary directory.

In S208, the service board checks the target file and generates return information according to the check result. After the service board successfully receives the version file, it is checked again whether the partition space of the version file stored by the service board CF card is larger than the size of the version file. If the space of the business board is sufficient, the version file is moved from the temporary directory to the version file formal directory, otherwise, the information of insufficient space is returned, and the version file is deleted.

And the service board checks the version file and judges whether the file is complete or not and whether the file is matched with the type of the service board or not. If the version is downloaded as invalid, the service board returns information that the version is invalid to the master.

In S210, the main frame main control board generates a management result of the target file based on the return information. If the service board returns the information of invalid version, the main frame master control stores the information and continues to download the version to the next service board of the same type, and the standby frame master control stores the information and downloads the version to the next service board of the same type.

If the service board returns the information of insufficient space, the main frame master control stops downloading the version and returns corresponding error information. The backup frame master stores the information, stops version download, and returns corresponding error information.

If the service board returns the information of successful downloading, the main frame master control can continue to download the version to the next service board of the same type.

If all the service boards return information that the version is invalid, then the version is considered to be an invalid version. The main frame main control returns corresponding error information, and the standby frame main control stores the information and returns corresponding error information.

It should be noted that, at this time, although the frame master will return an error message, the frame master information cannot be actually sent to the page. So the error information of the standby frame master cannot be displayed on the page.

In one embodiment, the business board may perform version verification, integrity verification, and type verification on the target file, for example; and when the verification is inconsistent, generating error warning information and sending the error warning information to the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board.

In one embodiment, for example, the main frame main control board stores the version invalidation information and continues the downloading operation when receiving the version invalidation information from the service board; and stopping the downloading operation when the main frame main control board receives the insufficient space information from the service board.

In one embodiment, for example, when the main frame main control board receives a download success message or version invalidation information from a service board, a command may be sent to the spare frame main control board to obtain return information of the service board under the spare frame main control board. Furthermore, when the main frame main control fails to connect the service board and the space of the service board is insufficient, downloading is stopped and error information is reported, and the main frame main control cannot acquire the downloading condition of the standby frame at the moment; and when the main frame master control is successfully downloaded or the version is invalid, actively sending a message to the standby frame master control to acquire a standby frame version downloading result.

The messages sent from the standby frames to the main frames are divided into the following types:

1. the download did not start

At this time, the main frame main control can wait for 3 seconds and then continue to send a request message to the main control of the standby frame, if the main control of the standby frame is still downloading a non-start mark, the main frame is considered to have no service board for downloading the target file;

2. the download is ongoing

At this time, the main control will enter circulation waiting, send information to the main control board of the standby frame every 3 seconds until the successful or failed information of the download is returned, and then continue to send request information to the next frame;

3. insufficient equipment space

At the moment, the main frame main control stops continuously acquiring the message and returns the slot number of the service board in the error message to the error output;

4. service board connection failure

At the moment, the main frame main control stops continuously acquiring the message and returns the slot number of the service board in the error message to the error output;

5. version invalidation

The main frame master control stores the information and continues to send a request message to the next standby frame;

6. successful download

The master frame master stores this information and continues to send request messages to the next slave frame.

After the above message is obtained, the main frame main control board needs to judge the result according to the downloaded results of all frame versions in the VSM environment, and specifically may, for example:

1. if all the frames subjected to version downloading return successful results, displaying 'successful version downloading' information on the page;

2. if only two kinds of information including successful downloading and invalid version are returned in the results returned by all frames subjected to version downloading, displaying 'partial version downloading success' information on the page, and needing a second verification by an administrator;

3. if all the frames subjected to version downloading return results which are version invalid, displaying 'version invalid' information on the page;

4. if the service board returns insufficient space, the page displays a 'service board space insufficient' message.

According to the file management method of the virtual switching matrix, a main frame main control board downloads a target file; the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board perform command synchronization so that the standby frame main control board downloads the target file; the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board traverse the service boards under the main frame and send the target file to the corresponding service boards; the service board checks the target file and generates return information according to a checking result; the main frame main control board generates the management result of the target file based on the return information, can obtain the version downloading result of all frames in the virtual exchange matrix environment, avoids the situation that the user cannot know the version downloading failure of the standby frame, enriches page prompt information, enables the user to know the error reason of the version downloading failure in time, and aims at solving the problem.

It should be clearly understood that this disclosure describes how to make and use particular examples, but the principles of this disclosure are not limited to any details of these examples. Rather, these principles can be applied to many other embodiments based on the teachings of the present disclosure.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a file management method of a virtual switching matrix according to another exemplary embodiment. Theflow 30 shown in fig. 3 is a complementary description to the flow shown in fig. 2.

As shown in fig. 3, in S302, the main frame main control board acquires file information of the target file. The target version can be selected by logging in a device page on the PC, entering a software version page corresponding to the service board in the device 'basic- > system management- > version management', and clicking and browsing at the 'local import version'.

In S304, it is determined whether the file information satisfies a preset condition, and when the preset condition is not satisfied, an error warning message is generated. The information such as the name, the size and the like of the file is acquired, and whether the file is a file of a preset type or not is firstly judged, and specifically, the file can be a bin file, and whether the size of the file is smaller than 200000KB or not. When the above condition is not satisfied, an error warning message is generated.

In S306, it is determined whether the remaining space of all service boards in the virtual switching matrix is greater than the capacity of the target file based on the file information. Because the information of all the service boards can be stored on the main control, the main control can directly judge whether the space is sufficient or not.

In S308, when the remaining space of the service board is smaller than the capacity of the target file, an error warning message is generated. The downloading of the target file may also be started, for example, when the remaining space of the service board is larger than the capacity of the target file.

Fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a file management method of a virtual switching matrix according to another exemplary embodiment. Theprocess 40 shown in fig. 4 is a detailed description of S206 "the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board traverse the service boards under the present frame and send the target file to the corresponding service boards" in the process shown in fig. 2.

As shown in fig. 4, in S402, the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board traverse the service boards under the present frame.

In S404, when the type of the service board is consistent with the target file, the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board establish socket communication with the service board. Socket (communication) is an abstraction of endpoints that communicate bi-directionally between application processes on different hosts in a network. One socket is the end of the network where processes communicate, providing a mechanism for application layer processes to exchange data using network protocols. In terms of the position, the socket is connected with the application process in an upper mode, and the socket is connected with the network protocol stack in a lower mode, so that the socket is an interface for the application program to communicate through the network protocol, and is an interface for the application program to interact with the network protocol root.

In S406, when the socket communication is successfully established between the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board and the corresponding service boards, the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board send the target file to the corresponding service boards based on the socket communication.

Socket can be seen as an endpoint in the respective communication connection when two network applications communicate, which is a logical concept. It is an API (application programming interface) for inter-process communication in a network environment, and is also a communication endpoint that can be named and addressed, each socket in use having its type and a process connected to it. One of the network application programs writes a piece of information to be transmitted into a Socket of the main frame main control board or the standby frame main control board during communication, and the Socket sends the piece of information to a Socket of a service board corresponding to the main frame main control board or the standby frame main control board through a transmission medium connected with a Network Interface Card (NIC) so that the other party can receive the piece of information. Socket is a combination of IP address and port that provides a mechanism to deliver packets to application layer processes.

In S408, the main frame main control board and the standby frame main control board generate an error warning message when the socket communication established with the corresponding service board fails.

According to the file management method of the virtual switching matrix, version downloading results of all frames in a VSM environment are mastered through socket communication, the situation that a user cannot know the version downloading failure of a standby frame is avoided, page prompt information is enriched, the user can know error reasons of the version downloading failure in time, and the problem is solved in a targeted mode.

The above-described functions defined by the above-described methods provided by the present disclosure are performed when the computer program is executed by a CPU. The program may be stored in a computer readable storage medium, which may be a read-only memory, a magnetic disk or an optical disk, etc.

Furthermore, it should be noted that the above-described figures are merely illustrative of the processes involved in the method according to the exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure, and are not intended to be limiting. It will be readily appreciated that the processes shown in the above figures do not indicate or limit the temporal order of these processes.
