You have to make sure the HMC is enabled for remote connectivity. Otherwise it won't connect even putting in the correct IP address. Once that hurdle is over, the user that you are signing into, also has to have permission to connect remotely.

Subject: Access to HMC
I'm working with a company that had their hardwarei setup by a vendor.
We have one system i partition that won't IPL. No one knows how to get to the console or anything.
The HMC that is attached to the server works but the person on site doesn't know how to use it. There is no phone or cell service in the computer room! I thought I know the IP Address of the HMC, and I know user/password. I tried HMC probe but that said couldn't connect.
I would like to be able to access the HMC from a PC on the network. Any tips would be appreciated. Sorry if I used the wrong names
thanks, Art
