Hi ,

In AIX 5L, is there any way to find the HMC details to which it is connected to?
Thanks in advance,

The following command will give you two resources. The one where ManagerType is HMC, is the HMC and the one where ManagerType is CSM is, well, your CSM server :)

codelsrsrc IBM.ManagementServer[/code]

Alex,

Thanks for the reply.

The following server is a LPAR. I could not get any info regarding HMC. May be i am wrong. Please advice on the following,

code# uname -L
1 10-A28EE
#

1. lsrsrc IBM.ManagementServer

Resource Persistent Attributes for: IBM.ManagementServer
#
[/code]
Thank You,
Pravin

Looks like your LPAR cannot tell what the HMC / CSM is, or is it a power4 machine? I'm not sure "IBM.ManagementServer" was supported before the power5 machines.

Try a google for:

site:ibm.com lsrsrc IBM.ManagementServer

and have a read.

The AIX 5.3 lsrsrc command reference:

Thank you for the help.

As suggested, lsrsrc IBM.ManagementServer
But only if there is an RMC network connection from the LPAR to the HMC (on the HMC's "open" network)

I have put a basic overview on Wiki at
http://www-941.ibm.com/collaboration/wiki/display/virtualization/HMC+and+System+Setup
Would be interested to hear if you find it useful.
