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.
