Hardware Management Console

 

The Hardware Management Console (HMC) controls managed systems. It is used to manage IBM^® Systems and eServer™ hardware, or models such as 5xx. The HMC is also used to manage logical partitions and Capacity on Demand. Using service applications, the HMC communicates with managed systems to detect, consolidate, and send information to IBM for analysis.
