5.8 In-Band Management Usage
The following are requirements to use the in-band connections:
• The "openflex-api" application must be installed and running on the Host Initiator server
• At least one MI Device has been successfully connected
Note:
After the MI Device connection(s) are established, the OpenFlex API requires a "GET /
Query/" for the API to discover the In-Band Path to communicate to the MI Device(s). This is
also true if there are MI Device changes or if the MI Device(s) disconnect and then reconnect.
