Error description
The "Adding VM managers" (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgec enter/en/SS8JFY_9.2.0/com.ibm.lmt.doc/Inventory/admin/t_adding_n ew_vm_managers.html) chapter in ILMT documentation requires a correction. Its step 4b states: --- Provide the URL of the VM manager in the following format: https://<Hyper-V_IP_address>/wsman. --- The port information is missing. This statement should be corrected to contain the port information like it is now presented in the "Microsoft Hyper-V" chapter (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en /SS8JFY_9.2.0/com.ibm.lmt.doc/Inventory/admin/r_hyper-v.html): --- The default URL that is to be used is https://<HYPER-V_IP_address>:<port>/wsman, where <port> is the port of the listener that was created for the WinRM service. The default value for the HTTP listeners is 5985 and for HTTPS listeners is 5986 (WinRM 2.0). To verify all the defined WinRM listeners, use the winrm enumerate winrm/config/listener command. --- TS004990820
Local fix
