Linode Manager On Android

Linode Manager is the official Android mobile application for Linode. With this application, you’ll be able to manage and administer your Linodes from anywhere in the world. Here’s a list of things that you can do with this smart phone application:

  • Create, remove, boot, and reboot Linodes
  • Access Linodes via SSH and Lish
  • Resize Linodes on the fly
  • Keep tabs on your Linodes performance with CPU, network, and IO utilization graphs
  • Create and manage NodeBalancers and domain zones
  • Access the complete Linode Library
  • Manage your Linode account and make payments

Linode Shell or Lish for short, works primarily with a web browser console in this app. I prefer Chrome with Lish. SSH seems to look for an app called Connectbot. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get SSH to work because it defaults to port 22. I use a different port for SSH, an added security to my Linode.

Having access to the shell terminal from a smartphone is a nice feature to have. Perhaps, you can do perform a couple of updates or simple maintenance functions. However, I prefer to use my desktop if I were to do anything drastic to my Linode.
