Abstract
A method, system, and apparatus for programming adapter settings in a data processing system is provided. In one embodiment, the data processing system programs a plurality of settings for each of a plurality of adapters using system based parameters. The data processing system then determines whether any of the adapters settings as programmed based on system based parameters are inconsistent with the specific requirements of the specific adapter. If one or more of the settings in any adapter are inconsistent with the adapter's requirements, those settings are reprogrammed using adapter specific parameters to ensure optimal performance of the data processing system with the adapter.
