im connect establishes a connection to an Integrity Lifecycle Manager Server host. Most commands implicitly connect to the host; this does so explicitly. In fact, all the other commands call im connect to establish the connection. You can use im disconnect to disconnect from an Integrity Lifecycle Manager Server host.
