The HMC is a graphical interface software that is used primarily for hardware control and management of machines such as IBM P570. The HMC (Host Management console) runs on a custom IBM machine, which allows you to control the management of a minicomputer, including installing an operating system. If you don't have a dedicated machine to install the HMC, you can also install it on a virtual machine, and you can also control the minicomputer by connecting the network cable.

The following shows the installation of the HMC on VMware:
