HPE iLO Mobile (iLO 3/4/5)

About HPE iLO Mobile (iLO 3/4/5) Android App

The HPE iLO Mobile application provides access to the remote console of your HPE ProLiant server from your Android device. The mobile app interacts directly with the iLO processor on HPE ProLiant servers, providing total control of the server at all times as long as the server is plugged in. For example, you can access the server when it is in a healthy state, or when it is powered off with a blank hard drive. As an IT administrator, you can troubleshoot problems and perform software deployments from almost anywhere.

The HPE iLO Mobile app allows you to perform the following tasks:
- Operate the server power switch.
- Use the Remote Console to interact with the operating system, including BIOS and ROM configuration changes.
- Mount an ISO CD/DVD image. The disk image is available on the server as a USB CD/DVD drive. You can boot from the disk image and deploy an operating system.
- Launch HPE iLO scripts and monitor their progress.
- Access the HPE iLO web interface.
- Store the list of servers you want to manage.
