Description

Initiator groups (igroups) have an ostype attribute of default.

For example:

> igroup show -v

myigroup (FCP):

OS Type: default

Member: 10:20:00:00:00:2e:00:00 (logged in on: 0b, 0a)

The ostype attribute can be set to default only by the Manage Data ONTAP API. The API can either specify the ostype as default or cause default to be applied by the system by not setting the ostype during igroup creation.
