Hello,

When configuring E1080 servers with AIX cloud and ibmi;

Do I need I add cloud management console for Ibmi?  

Dear Ala

CMC's full name is Cloud Management Console for Power Systems and it is designed to manage some common aspects of all LPARs that run in Power System.   You can add links for PowerVS, PowerVC, PowerHA, PowerSC, PowerSCMFA and VM Recovery Manager for HA to CMC.  I do not see in its product description that there is CMC for IBM i in particular.  

Hello,

As Satid has already described it . It is basically an instance hosted in the IBM Cloud. This covers all the partitions running on the IBM Power whether it is AIX , Linux or IBM i. In addition CMC provides accessibility to patch planning, monitoring , inventory and PEP2.0/Enterprise Pools 2.0. I would highly recommend if you are using Enterprise Pool 2.0 to monitor usage of your resources. It is basically the cloud connector in hmc that provides security plus data transport between the hmc and CMC instance.
