1 Hardware Announcement May 4, 2004 IBM 7310-C03 Desktop Hardware Management Console A GUI for configuring and operating POWER5 servers Overview The IBM 7310-C03 Desktop Hardware Management Console (HMC) is a dedicated desktop workstation that allows you to configure and manage partitions and Capacity on Demand on POWER5 servers. An integrated hardware management application helps you configure and partition the server through a GUI. To help ensure console functionality, the HMC is not available as a general purpose computing resource. The Model C03 helps you manage LPAR configurations to: Create and store LPAR profiles that define the processor, memory, and I/O resources allocated to an individual partition Start, stop, and reset a system partition Boot a partition or system by selecting a profile Display system and partition status Display a virtual operator panel of the contents for each partition or controlled system In addition to partition and Capacity on Demand console functions, operating system console support is also provided for i5/os using a 5250 programming interface. This can potentially save the cost of a separate i5/os console. The Model C03 offers a service focal point for the systems it controls. It is connected to a dedicated port on the service processor of the POWER5 system via an Ethernet connection. Tools for problem determination and service support, such as call-home and error log notification, are available through an analog phone line. This dedicated-function device is used only for the control and service functions of the POWER5 servers it serves. It is not available for use as a general purpose computing resource.

It is required for servers operating in dynamic LPAR mode. The 7310 console has one physical Ethernet port. Each server partition will have a physical connection to the network, and the 7310 console will be logically connected to each partition via its connection to the network. This connection is used to: Provide additional systems management, such as remote sharing support for i5/os system console sessions This announcement is provided for your information only.

4 Collect and pass hardware service events to the console for automatic notification of error conditions to IBM Collect the total system inventory One Ethernet connection is required for each POWER5 server controlled by the console. Either a serial port for modem attachment or an Ethernet connection is required if the Service Agent call-home function is implemented Console Proxy The 5250 Console Proxy function provides local i5/os system console support via the 7310-C03 console. To provide additional operation flexibility, the Console Proxy s session sharing capability allows multiple workstations to attach to the 7310 console and act as 5250 consoles to i5/os. The workstations can be LAN-attached or WAN-attached to the 7310 console using Telnet5250 or TN5250 client support. This allows multiple system operators to consult on an operational question or for a remote operator to handle operational questions/issues. The Console Proxy provides the mechanisms to establish a connection with each individual client and multiplex the clients through a single connection through the Hardware Server component on the Model C03 to the target i5/os partitions. The number of connections is dependent on the capability of the server. A single instance of the Console Proxy runs on the Model C03, providing this remote sharing capability for sessions to multiple partitions. Only one session applies toward the maximum number of partitions supported, even if multiple workstations are participating in the i5/os console activity. Language support is consistent with other functions of the Model C03. To support the remote TN5250 sessions and the secure passage of user ID and passwords to i5/os partitions, as well as session keys to share 5250 sessions between multiple users, the 5250 Console Proxy supports SSL encryption between the Console Proxy and the remote TN5250 clients. Limitations The Model C03 console is a dedicated function device used only for the control and service functions of the POWER5 servers it serves. It is not available for use as a general purpose computing resource. Each console must be configured with a graphics display, a keyboard, and a mouse. Various native language keyboards are available for the Model C03. The console display menus and control information have been translated into the following languages: Belgian Dutch Brazilian Portuguese Czech English French German Hungarian Italian Japanese Korean Russian Simplified Chinese Slovakian Spanish Traditional Chinese One 7310-C03 console can control a maximum of two POWER5 servers with a maximum of 40 LPARs in a mixed server environment. The number of servers each console can control varies by server size and complexity console performance may vary depending on the unique combination of servers and LPARs implemented. The 7310-C03 console only supports POWER5 servers. Planning information Cable orders: One Ethernet cable is required to attach the Hardware Management Console to the system Central Electronics Complex. This cable can be customer supplied or purchased from IBM. Security, auditability, and control i5 servers use the security and auditability features of IBM i5/os. Use of these facilities is optional. The security measures supplied by i5/os are designed to reduce the risk of users changing or destroying data resources, but do not prevent it. The i5/os security features include the use of passwords, a security option to limit a user to only the functions provided by customer-designed menus, and a security option to limit read/write access for files, libraries, and folders during normal operations. To achieve increased security, the i5/os controls should be combined with physical security, division of duties, and other appropriate measures. The 7310 console network connection to the partitions is based on a component of IBM s Reliable, Scalable Cluster Technology (RSCT) called Resource Monitoring and Control (RMC). The only operations permitted through this connection are hardware error event collection and hardware inventory data collection, dynamic LPAR resource movement coordination for AIX and Linux partitions, and partition shutdown/reboot for AIX/Linux partitions. The customer is responsible for evaluation, selection, and implementation of security features, administrative procedures, and appropriate controls in application systems and communications facilities.
