RELATED IDEAS

Enhance RSCT code base to allow for daemon communication via SNAT/NAT

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

HMC's dependence on RSCT for operations such as DLPAR and LPM and RSCT's incompatibility with Network address translation (NAT).

This incompatibility forces my company to deploy/acquire multiple redundant "pairs" of HMCs per Network address translation (NAT) VLAN in order to take advantage of the DLPAR and LPM Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS) features provided by HMCs.

    Although the underline code feature in RSCT/RMC is implemented, the integration with HMC to allow the admin to enable the feature is not done.
    It will be planned in the future HMC release.
