Managing Mobile Devices

HP Client Automation (HPCA) is a real-time, policy-based, desired state management client management solution that automates the administrative tasks for the physical and virtual clients devices in highly complex and ever changing environments. The client devices can be a desktop, laptop, virtual device, or a mobile device. A mobile device can either be a smartphone or a tablet. HPCA supports only Android and iOS operating system-based devices. For more information on the supported operating system, see the HP Client Automation Support Matrix available at: http://h20230.www2.hp.com/sc/support_matrices.jsp.

Using HPCA, you can perform various Mobile Device Management (MDM) tasks, such as software management, inventory management, and security management. This chapter provides information on how you can set up HPCA servers for MDM, notify end-user for the agent application download, and publish and deploy mobile applications. This chapter also describes the steps to create mobile device security profiles, such that you can protect mobile devices in your environment from unauthorized access.
