This topic helps users to understand how to use the Hardware Management
Console (HMC), describes the tasks you can use on the console, and describes
how to navigate using the Web-based user interface.
Introduction to the Hardware Management Console
This section briefly describes some of the concepts
and functions of the Hardware Management Console (HMC) and introduces the
user interface that is used for accessing those functions.
Using the Web-based user interface
You can use the Web-based user interface to
perform tasks on the Hardware Management Console (HMC) or on your
managed resources.
