Abstract
A system is provided for automatically closing a server-rack door. A microphone acquires sound data and an acceleration sensor acquires acceleration data. A controller determines at least one time when a volume of the sound data exceeds a threshold. The controller identifies at least one waveform from the acceleration data which matches (i) an opening waveform or (ii) a closing waveform. The controller checks, for each given waveform from among the at least one waveform, if the at least one time is within a time range of the given waveform and, if so, determine that the user is opening or closing the server-rack door by identifying the given waveform as matching the opening or closing waveform. The controller provides a notification of an open status of the server-rack door based on numbers of opening and closing waveforms. The controller automatically closes the server-rack door, responsive to the notification.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to closing a server-rack door using acoustic noise and acceleration.


One or more embodiments of the present invention involve using sound/accelerator sensors of a smartphone that maintenance engineers typically carry for their work.


In an embodiment, the present invention determines the time when a volume value, in an area proximate to a plurality server-rack doors, exceeds a threshold, and collects acceleration data in a direction a user is walking. The acceleration data can be broken down into steps that represent certain actions. The present invention detects the waveform of an “open door” action from the collected acceleration data (step back from door), and detects the waveform of a “close door” action (step towards door) by using a symmetrized version of the waveform of an “open door” action. Then, the time slot for each action (“open door” and “closed door”) is obtained. Using the time when the volume exceeds the threshold, it is checked whether that time is within the time range of an of an “open door” action or a “close door” action. If the time when the volume exceeds the threshold is within the time range of the detected action, it is determined that the door has been opened and closed. Otherwise, the door is determined to be opened, causing an automatic closing of the door. In this way, safety and security of the equipment in the server rack can be automatically maintained. In an embodiment, a notification can be provided to a user that the server-door is open. In an embodiment, the notification can be provided to allow the user to initiate a close door signal to facilitate the closing of the door so as to assure that the worker is done in that rack and the door can be closed. These and other aspects and variations of the present invention are described herein.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an exemplary environment 200 to which the present invention can be applied, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.


The environment 200 includes a set of rack-mounted servers 210 in racks 220.


The racks 220 have doors 220A whose open/close status is determined by the present invention for the purpose of identifying and closing open rack doors where no technician is operating on the rack and it is simply running as normal but with an open door as a vulnerability that needs to be addressed by the closing of the open rack doors.


The racks 220 are arranged in rows (with one row shown for the sake of illustration), passed which a user 230 walks in order to determine the open/close status of any given door using acoustic noise and acceleration as described herein. The arrow 240 depicts the direction of movement of the user 230 carrying a user device 230A (e.g., a smart phone, a tablet, etc.). For the sake of illustration, the last two bays have their server-rack doors closed, while remaining bays do not. This open status of the server-rack doors of the remaining bays is detectable and addressable by the instant application. For example, an open door whose bay is currently not under work (as determined by the absence of a technician in front as determined from acceleration data and optionally work order information) can be automatically closed by the present invention. Such closure can involve a closure confirmation signal from a user to ensure a door is not mistakenly closed. Such closure can further involve a motor installed in each bay that opens and closes a door responsive to a door closure signal(s) (e.g., simply an automatic signal and/or one governed by a super-ceding confirmation signal from a user or the system).



FIG. 3 shows an exemplary acceleration waveform 300 corresponding to a direction of a user's movement, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.


The acceleration waveform 300 is delineated by a plurality of timestamps (TS1-TS17). The granularity of the timestamps can vary depending upon the application.


The following correlations apply:


(1) walk towards the door


(2) approach the door (=one step ahead)


(3) unlock the door (=no walk)


(4) open the door (+one step behind)


(5) approach the inside of the rack and start work (=one step ahead).


As can be seen, the user's actions can be discretized using the acceleration sensor, in conjunction with sound data as described herein.



FIGS. 4-5 are block diagrams showing an exemplary method 400 for automatically closing a server-rack door using acoustic noise and acceleration, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.


At block 410, acquire, by a microphone included in a device carried by a user, sound data. The device can be a smart phone, a tablet, and so forth.


At block 420, acquire, by an acceleration sensor included in the device, acceleration data in a walking direction of the user. In an embodiment, the acceleration data can include data indicative of steps taken towards and away from the server-rack door indicative of closing and opening the server-rack door, respectively. In an embodiment, a low-pass filter, operatively coupled to a controller (mentioned in the next block), can low-pass filter the acceleration data to filter out the acceleration data corresponding to directions other than the walking direction of the user.


At block 430, determine, by a controller operatively coupled to the microphone and the acceleration sensor, at least one time when a volume of the sound data exceeds a threshold. In an embodiment, the controller can set the threshold based on steady state volume data acquired and averaged over a given period of time.


At block 440, identify, by the controller, at least one waveform from the acceleration data which matches (i) an opening waveform representing an acceleration waveform when the user is opening a server-rack door among a plurality of server-rack doors or (ii) a closing waveform representing an acceleration waveform when the user is closing the server-rack door and displaying a symmetrized shape of the first waveform. The symmetrized shape of the first waveform indicates both an opening and a closing of the server-rack door.


At block 450, check, by the controller, for each given waveform from among the at least one waveform, if the at least one time (determined per block 430) is within a time range of the given waveform and, if so, determine that the user is opening or closing the server-rack door by identifying the given waveform as matching the opening waveform or the closing waveform.


The door can be determined to be open when the numbers of opening waveforms and closing waveforms are unequal or when a sum of the numbers of opening waveforms and closing waveforms is odd-numbered. The door can be determined to be open when the numbers of opening waveforms and closing waveforms are equal or when a sum of the numbers of opening waveforms and closing waveforms is even-numbered.


At block 460, provide, by the controller, a notification of an open status of the server-rack door based on numbers of opening waveforms and closing waveforms indicating the open status. The notification can be internalized to the system in order to “inform” the controller of the status and obtain a control result depending on the status. In an embodiment, the notification is provided to the user in a user perceptible manner (audible, visual, and/or tactile (vibration when in front of a particular door being evaluated)).


At block 470, automatically close, by the controller, the server-rack door, responsive to the notification. In an embodiment, the server rack door can be automatically closed responsive to the notification and a close-door signal initiated by the user. In an embodiment, any of an electronic, a magnetic or an electromagnetic door closing system can be used to automatically close the server-rack door, responsive to a close door confirmation signal from the controller.
