I see through the api calls that we can register wwns to a hostgroup, but how do you define the node.  For example, today we create the node wit its wwns in command suite and then allocate to that hostgroup that is created by the workflow.    I am not seeing an api call that would allow me to create that host , so command suite would be able to see it, or am i missing that?

The REST APIs were developed to really provide a programmatic interface to our storage systems. Hosts are not defined in the storage system, but are created as objects in HCS and provide additional value in HCS.  To create hosts in HCS, you'll need to use the HCS CLI (HiCommand CLI) after you have refreshed the HCS database.  Any host group bindings created using the REST API are not updated in HCS until you refresh HCS.
