Is it possible to create non-mixed-mode initiator groups in ONTAP System Manager?
Applies to
ONTAP System Manager(OSM)
Answer
- No, by design, the protocol is set as
“Mixed”when adding an initiator group through OSM

- If the protocol needs to be set as
ISCSIorFC, please create the initiator group via CLI:
::> igroup create -protocol [FCP or ISCSI] -vserver VSERVER NAME -igroup INITIATOR GROUP -ostype OS -initiator iqn.xxxx.xxx. -comment
Additional Information
Why does an FC protocol igroup type show FC/FCoE rather than FC on ONTAP System Manager GUI?
