    Hello,

    I'm configuring AIX 5.2 to communicate with a FastT200 for the first
    time. All the configuration is brand new.

    I ran cfgmgr -v and it finished quickly, but didn't seem to find the FastT.

    I decided that purhaps the FC switch is not configured properly, so I
    direct connected one of the two HBAs to the FastT, and left the other
    connected to the switch.

    Running cfgmgr -v again and it delays a long time, and gives some errors
    regarding the Fibre Channel devices.

    Any help?

    Output of cfgmgr -v :
