yes the fcstat would have confirmed the attach line
attach >>>>>>>>>>>>> none <<<<<<<<<<<<<< How this adapter is CONNECTED
False
I guess you have a job to do on your next visit. Can sell you some second
hand fibre cable 😉
Still at least the reason for the difference is a simple fix.

Shaun,
I failed to see a difference between the two ports by using lsdev $ lsdev
-dev fscsi1 -attr
attribute value description user_settable
attach none How this adapter is CONNECTED False
autoconfig available Configuration State True
dyntrk yes Dynamic Tracking of FC Devices True+
fc_err_recov fast_fail FC Fabric Event Error RECOVERY Policy True+
io_thrshld_tmr no FC special error recovery threshold timer enable True+
scsi_id Adapter SCSI ID False
sw_fc_class 3 FC Class for Fabric True
$ lsdev -dev fscsi0 -attr
attribute value description user_settable
attach switch How this adapter is CONNECTED False
autoconfig available Configuration State True
dyntrk yes Dynamic Tracking of FC Devices True+
fc_err_recov fast_fail FC Fabric Event Error RECOVERY Policy True+
io_thrshld_tmr no FC special error recovery threshold timer enable True+
scsi_id 0xa0006 Adapter SCSI ID False
sw_fc_class 3 FC Class for Fabric True
$
But the fcstat is a godsend.

check the attributes for the fibre adapter on both vios servers
Are they both switch connected with dynamic tracking and fast fail on?
$ lsdev -dev fscsi1 -attr

Assuming T2 port is connected to a switch, you may want to check NPIV
enablement on that switch port.
