Open Systems Management Server
The Open System Management Server (OSMS) is a keyed feature that allows host control and
inband management of the director or switch through a management application that resides on an
open-systems interconnection (OSI) device. This device is attached to a director or switch port. The
device communicates with the switch or director through Fibre Channel common transport (FC-CT)
protocol.
NOTE: If firmware 6.0 or later is installed on the Switch or Director, you can install FICON
Management Server and Open Systems Management Server features simultaneously. Previously,
you could only install one of these features at a time.
This section provides the following information:
