Enabling REST services

Applications that use Representational State Transfer (REST) services can query and manage the storage environment by connecting to the Operations Center.

About this task

https://oc_host_name:port/oc/api
where oc_host_name is the network name or IP address of the Operations Center host system and port is the Operations Center port number. The default port number is 11090.
For information about the REST services that are available for the Operations Center, see Technote http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21973011, or issue the following REST call: 
https://oc_host_name:port/oc/api/help

  2. On the General page, select the Enable administrative REST API check box.
