UNIX command for checking active Fibre Channels

Can someone advise what the UNIX command for checking active Fibre Channels is?

I have used lcdev and this gives me a nice list of cards available to our box. The particular Fibre Channel I'm interested in is fcs6. This is showing as Available...if that is the case does this also mean that it is up , running and available for work .. so to speak.

Scenario is:

We had a failed backup to TSM over the weekend. The error suggested a failed Fibre Channel card (fcs6). So we took this was taken offline by the AIX / TSM support guys (not sure which one did it), backup was re-run successfully. Then last night it failed with the same error.
What I'm trying to establish is if this card was re-activated somewhere between the successful completion of the backup and the start of the next one.

any idea's help?

Cheers D
