Does the system have HMC or not? 2

[Mag0007]

How does one know if a system is being managed by a HMC?

TIA

 

[aixadm]

Check if the rmcd daemon is running or not by the command
ps -ef|grep -i rmcd. This daemon runs only when HMC connects to a partition.

On the front display, menu 1, it will say HMC=1 or 0 (managed or un-managed)

 

[ogniemi]

you can check it running command:

/usr/sbin/rsct/bin/lsrsrc IBM.ManagementServer

regards,r,m.

Thanks everyone for their replies.

How do I know what HMC I am using, is there a way to determine the HMC's hostname/ipaddress from a managed system?

UnixFreak:
Where is this menu at? I don't have an option to reboot currently...

TIA

Run this command to get the IP of your HMC
/usr/sbin/rsct/bin/lsrsrc IBM.ManagementServer hostname

Then nslookup (IP address what you got above) , you will get the name of the HMC
