"Assuming". That may be the catch.
Not really sure if I ran the fiber from that port to the switch. Will it only show in lsnports if it is currently wired?
It's only out of state (Grand Rapids MI).

Try "fcstat fcs1" (I guess fcs1 is the device name of T2 port) to check whether it is connected to a switch or not.

There's no "configure and then hook up the wiring" capability, right? You have to wire it up, then configure it?

Once it is connected to a port switch, this port enabled and enabled for NPIV, you have to run "cfgdev -dev fcs1" or "cfgdev" (without device) command for the VIOS to configure the port on the VIOS side.
