The ISV interface to the machine is defined in System z: Application Programming Intefaces, SB10-7030, available from ResourceLink. Nothing runs at the box level or below the LPARs. The interfaces you use interact with the objects defined and managed by the Console application within the HMC. You cannot add to or delete from the architecture of the machine.
