Chapter 8. Hardware Management Console overview

Cluster support when combined with IBM Cluster Systems Management
(CSM) V1.4 or later
Using a virtual console for each partition or controlled system
With this feature, every partition can be accessed over the trusted network
HMC connection to the server. This is a convenient feature when the partition
is not reachable across the public network.
The HMC provides a Service Focal Point for the systems it controls. It is
connected to the service processor of the system using network connection
and must be connected to each partition using an Ethernet LAN for Service
Focal Point and to coordinate dynamic logical partitioning operations.
The HMC provides tools for problem determination and service support, such
as call-home and error log notification through an analog phone line or
Ethernet.
There are several models of HMC that were available for pSeries over the years.
These models can be upgraded to manage
Sserver
p5 servers. However, a
single HMC cannot manage both POWER4 and POWER5 systems. The upgrade
is a reinstall of the HMC code level to one that is compatible with
Sserver
p5
servers.
Clients with 19 inch rack mounted systems who have additional space in their
racks or clients who prefer rack mounted systems would consider ordering the
rack mounted version.
7310-C04 is a desktop HMC
7310-CR3 is rack-mounted HMC
The 7315 models are for the POWER4 processor-based pSeries systems.
For hardware configuration considerations, see 5.2.11, “HMC configuration rules”
on page 133.
Any 7310 or 7315 HMC is capable of controlling a
Sserver
p5 system, providing
it has the latest software installed on it. It is easy to update your HMC. Keep in
mind with the latest software (to support
Sserver
p5 systems) an HMC can
no-longer be used to support pSeries POWER4 processor-based servers. You
can download HMC updates at:

8.1.1 Desktop HMC
The supported desktop model is the 7310-C04. Older versions can be migrated
to POWER5 HMC code level.
