Hardware Management Console (HMC) is a Physical / Virtual appliance used to manage IBM Systems including IBM AS/400, IBM System p, IBM System z, and IBM Power Systems.HMC supports command line (ssh) as well as web (https) user interfaces and REST API.
Linux on IBM Z originated as two separate efforts to port Linux to IBM's System/390 servers. The first effort, the "Bigfoot" project, developed by Linas Vepstas in late 1998 through early 1999, was an independent distribution and has since been abandoned. [1]
IBM uses two naming structures for its modern hardware products. Products are normally given a three- or four-digit machine type and a model number (it can be a mix of letters and numbers). A product may also have a marketing or brand name. For instance, 2107 is the machine type for the IBM System Storage DS8000. While the majority of products ...
In 2008, IBM consolidated the separate System i and System p product lines (which had mostly identical hardware by that point) [6] into a single product line named IBM Power Systems. [ 7 ] [ 8 ] The name "AS/400" is sometimes used informally to refer to the IBM i operating system running on modern Power Systems hardware.
Common Hardware Reference Platform (CHRP) is a standard system architecture for PowerPC-based computer systems published jointly by IBM and Apple in 1995. Like its predecessor PReP, it was conceptualized as a design to allow various operating systems to run on an industry standard hardware platform, and specified the use of Open Firmware and RTAS for machine abstraction purposes.
The IBM System p is a high-end line of RISC /UNIX-based servers. It was the successor of the RS/6000 line, and predecessor of the IBM Power Systems server series. History
IBM ZD&T (Z Development and Test Environment), an IBM offering provides an x86-based environment that emulates Z hardware and runs genuine z/OS software, offering unmatched application portability and compatibility. IBM Z Development and Test Environment can be used for education, demonstration, and development and test of applications that ...
IBM continues to provide hardware maintenance service and microcode features to support users. A robust market of smaller companies continues to provide the 3745/3746, features, parts, and service. VTAM is also supported by IBM, as is the NCP required by the 3745/3746 controllers. In 2008 an IBM publication said:
