IBM HMC Mobile vs Profound UI

Introducing IBM HMC Mobile, the app that allows you to monitor and manage your systems from your mobile device. Keep watch over all of your systems and partitions and receive alerts when hardware messages, OS messages, or status changes arise. Key features: • Access all of your systems, even if they’re spread across multiple HMCs • View system status, hardware messages, and configuration details • View partition status, OS messages, and configuration details • Start/activate, stop/deactivate and change the activation profiles of partitions • Use personalized push notification settings that allow you to receive updates only for the systems and partitions that you’re most interested in monitoring • Take advantage of personalized security options such as multi-factor authentication, fingerprint ID, restricted object access and actions based on user role and IP, a “view only” mode, and more

The Profound UI Mobile Client allows users to access information stored on an IBM i server through the use of an iPhone or iPad. IBM i data can be retrieved, updated, and/or integrated with native device features, such as the camera for photo uploading. Once connection details are supplied, all IBM i data access is in real time. Existing IBM i character-based applications can be converted to be accessed using an enriched user interface on the mobile device. The Profound UI Mobile Client communicates with the Profound UI server component, which must be installed and properly configured on the IBM i server.
