Hardware Management Console specications
Hardware Management Console (HMC) specications provide detailed information for your HMC,
including dimensions, electrical, power, temperature, environment, and service clearances.
7042-CR9 Hardware Management Console specications
Hardware specications for model 7042-CR9 provide detailed information for your Hardware
Management Console (HMC), including dimensions, electrical, power, temperature, environmental
specications, and noise emissions.
The HMC controls managed systems, including the management of logical partitions and the use of
capacity on demand. Using service applications, the HMC communicates with managed systems to
detect, consolidate, and send information to IBM for analysis. The HMC provides service technicians with
diagnostic information for systems that can operate in a multiple-partitioned environment.
Use the following specications to plan for your HMC.
