Amen to that!

IBM made the HMC not a "system", but an "appliance", meaning: it shouldn't be looked at as just another computer with an OS but like something more akin to a toaster.

The reason is to avoid all sorts of mayhem an inexperienced/incompetent administrator could cause to this very central and essential system. We even had a complete discussion thread about this: [Opinion] A Public Answer To Rob McNelly.

While i still do not think this construct is well-thought i can appreciate the notion that incompetent administrators pose a risk for the operation of the HMC. So, if you are knowledgeable enough to hack your way into the HMC you are probably knowledgeable enough to avoid becoming a liability yourself. And if you are not, then it is probably for the best that you are being kept off the system.

LIBGUESTFS(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     LIBGUESTFS(8)

NAME

       update-guestfs-appliance - update the supermin appliance used by libguestfs

SYNOPSIS

       update-guestfs-appliance

DESCRIPTION

       update-guestfs-appliance  creates or updates the supermin appliance for use with libguestfs. It uses febootstrap for this, therefore access
       to the package repository is needed.

       A supermin appliance contains only lists of files and directories. The contents of the referenced files are  only  copied  into	an  ad-hoc
       filesystem  whenever  libguestfs  starts a virtual machine. Therefore, calling update-guestfs-appliance is only needed after libguestfs has
       been installed or when the filesystem layouts or dependencies of needed packages on the host system have been changed.

FILES

       /usr/lib/guestfs/make.sh (the script that does the actual work),
       /usr/lib/guestfs/supermin.d/hostfiles
       /usr/lib/guestfs/supermin.d/base.img

SEE ALSO

       guestfish(1), guestmount(1), febootstrap(8), febootstrap-supermin-helper(8).

AUTHOR

       update-guestfs-appliance and this manual page were written by Hilko Bengen <bengen@debian.org>, for the Debian project (and may be used	by
       others).
