Open Systems Management Server

NOTE:

Open Systems Management Server (OSMS) is available only for the Edge Switch 2/32.

OSMS is not available on the Edge Switch 2/24.

The Open System Management Server (OSMS) is a 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.

Configuring the Open Systems Management Server

Use these procedures to configure the Open Systems Inband Management program to function

with the switch.
To configure the Open Systems Management Server, use the following steps:

1.

Select Configure > Management Server.
Two submenu options display, as shown in

step 2

and

step 3

:

2.

Click Enable the Open System Management Server. (To disable the open systems

management server, click the check box again to remove the check mark.)

3.

Click Host Control Prohibited to display a check mark and prohibit the host management

program from changing configuration and connectivity parameters on the switch. In this case,

the host program has read-only access to configuration and connectivity parameters. Clicking

the check box when it contains a check mark removes the check mark and allows a host

program to change configuration and connectivity parameters on the switch.

4.

Click Activate to implement changes and close the dialog box.

5.

If you are finished configuring the switch, back up the configuration data. For more information,
