=head1 DESCRIPTION
For PPC (with HMC) specific:
This command is used to set up connections for FSP and BPA nodes to HMC nodes. (If the connection already exists, it will not break it.)
This command is useful when you have multiple HMCs, each of which will manage a subset of the FSPs/BPAs. Use B<mkhwconn> to tell
each HMC which FSPs/BPAs it should manage. When using this, you should turn off the self-discovery on each HMC. You also need

Note: If a CEC (FSP) belongs to a frame, which has a BPA installed, this CEC should not be assigned to an HMC individually. Instead, the whole frame (BPA) should be assigned to the HMC.
For PPC (without HMC, using FSPAPI) specific:
It is used to set up connections for FSP and BPA node to Hardware Server on management node (or service node ). It only could be done according to the definition in xCAT DB.
