Policies

Per-Product Limits
Each Dell product API (iDRAC Redfish, OpenManage Enterprise, PowerStore, etc.) enforces its own session, concurrency, and operation limits at the device or array level. Refer to the relevant product API reference for canonical values.
Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter, honoring Retry-After when present.
Session Management
Several Dell management APIs require explicit session creation and cleanup; long-lived sessions can consume the per-device session pool and trigger 503 / connection refusal.
