About the Maintenance console

For information on accessing the Maintenance console, see Access the Maintenance console in the HPE OneView User Guide.

The Maintenance console, shown in Example of the Maintenance console main menu , provides a limited set of administrative commands that might be required when you cannot access the appliance’s web user interface (UI).
