The port does have a link. I have reseated the GBIC module. The virtual connect manager does show that it has a 4GB connection and is logged in to the correct WWN. But, when I select that port while defining the new fabric, it will not add it to the fabric.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Cannot add FC port in Virtual Connect
So, I can do it on one VC but not the other?
Am I able to add additional ports to a fabric to increase bandwidth to the SAN?

Re: Cannot add FC port in Virtual Connect
VC-FC module 1
port1 - SAN Fabric-DMX_MDS0 - Connected to Cisco MDS0 Switch (New SAN)
port2 - SAN Fabric-Meditech_01 Connected to Cisco MDS0 Switch (New SAN)
port3 - SAN Fabric-VMware_01 Connected to Brocade SW1 (Old SAN)
port4
VC-FC module 2
port1- Trying to define SAN fabric DMX_MDS1 - Connected to Cisco MDS1 Switch (New SAN)
port2 - SAN Fabric-Meditech_02 Connected to Cisco MDS1 Switch (New SAN)
port3 - SAN Fabric-VMware_02 Connected to Brocade SW2 (Old SAN)
port4
When defining the new SAN fabric DMX-MDS1, I try to add Port 1, but it will not add it. I don't get any errors, it just never adds it.
Module 1, Ports 1 & 2 show up as being connected to the same WWN. They are connected to different ports on the same switch.

But, no, it is not in use by the other SAN.
