ABSTRACT:
A method, system, and program product is provided for configuring a target device, the method comprising the steps of: receiving a log-in request to connect the target device to a host, wherein the log-in request includes a host designator; accessing a table of host designators and associated O/S types; determining if there is a match of the log-in request host designator to a host designator in the table; and selecting an O/S type protocol associated with the match to the host designator. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the host designator is a worldwide name. In a further embodiment of the present invention, the step is provided of determining if a mode parameter is set for a default O/S protocol; and selecting that default O/S protocol unless there is a match of the log-in request host designator in the table.
