4. Appendix

This section contains information that is referenced from other sections, and that does not really need to be read in sequence.

4.1. Troubleshooting

The zhmcclient Troubleshooting section also applies to the zhmccli project.

There are no additional zhmccli-specific troubleshooting hints at the moment.

This documentation uses a few special terms:

HMC: Hardware Management Console; the node the zhmcclient talks to.
session-id: an opaque string returned by the HMC as the result of a successful logon, for use by subsequent operations instead of credential data. The HMC gives each newly created session-id a lifetime of 10 hours, and expires it after that.

HMC API: The Web Services API of the z Systems Hardware Management Console, described in the following books:
HMC API 2.11.1: IBM SC27-2616, z Systems Hardware Management Console Web Services API (Version 2.11.1)
HMC API 2.12.0: IBM SC27-2617, z Systems Hardware Management Console Web Services API (Version 2.12.0)
HMC API 2.12.1: IBM SC27-2626, z Systems Hardware Management Console Web Services API (Version 2.12.1)
HMC API 2.13.0: IBM SC27-2627, z Systems Hardware Management Console Web Services API (Version 2.13.0)
HMC API 2.13.1: IBM SC27-2634, z Systems Hardware Management Console Web Services API (Version 2.13.1)
HMC Operations Guide: The operations guide of the z Systems Hardware Management Console, described in the following books:
HMC Operations Guide 2.11.1: IBM SC28-6905, System z Hardware Management Console Operations Guide (Version 2.11.1)
HMC Operations Guide 2.13.1: IBM z Systems Hardware Management Console Operations Guide (Version 2.13.1)
HMC Security: Hardware Management Console Security
KVM for IBM z Systems V1.1.2 System Administration: IBM SC27-8237, KVM for IBM z Systems V1.1.2 System Administration
