Message Handling System (OSI/MHS)
With OSI/MHS, applications on NonStop S-series servers can exchange messages
with proprietary and standard messaging systems on an OSI network, or a network of
NonStop S-series servers can serve as a backbone messaging network for other
systems, as shown in Figure 8-3.
