APPL Object
The OSI/MHS object types are: 
In addition, the NULL object type is defined for use in commands that do not require 
specification of a particular object type.  The OSI/MHS object types are described on the 
following pages.
APPL Object
The APPL object type defines one of the following to the OSI/MHS subsystem:
•
An application that can log on to the OSI/MHS subsystem
•
A user on whose behalf an application can log on
•
A Transfer X400 gateway user
•
A general user Gateway Programmatic Interface (GPI)
The APPL object configures the routing database and the OSI/MHS user database.
You can specify one of two types of APPL objects.  The type you specify depends on 
how the application accesses the OSI/MHS subsystem. The two types of APPL objects 
are:
•
MS, whereby the user accesses the subsystem through an MS (message store) group. 
You can configure up to 1000 APPL objects per MS group.
•
GW, whereby the user accesses the subsystem through the Transfer X400 gateway 
or the GPI.
The APPL object name is associated with a group that is used for servicing the messages 
submitted by the APPL.
APPL object names are unique user identifiers. An example of an APPL object name is 
$ZMHS.#APPL1.
