Well, I tried fscsi in my command as well and could not ever get that to work. I don't have a SCSI controller in this box so I can't assign one even temporarily. This box only has SATA.
I opened a ticket with IBM and they said that with AIX 6.1 TL6 there is a new command, "rendev", which lets you rename devices. I'm upgrading now and am going to give that command a try. I think renaming devices will help me get to the same end result which is getting hdisks in synch (hdisk# to PVID) between two VIO servers.

SIIS(4) BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual SIIS(4)
NAME
siis -- SiliconImage Serial ATA Host Controller driver
SYNOPSIS
To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:
device pci
device scbus
device siis
Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):
siis_load="YES"
The following tunables are settable from the loader(8):
hint.siis.X.msi
controls Message Signaled Interrupts (MSI) usage by the specified controller.
hint.siisch.X.pm_level
controls SATA interface Power Management for the specified channel, allowing some power to be saved at the cost of additional command
latency. Possible values:
0 interface Power Management is disabled (default);
1 device is allowed to initiate PM state change, host is passive.
Note that interface Power Management is not compatible with device presence detection. A manual bus reset is needed on device hot-plug.
hint.siisch.X.sata_rev
setting to nonzero value limits maximum SATA revision (speed). Values 1, 2 and 3 are respectively 1.5, 3 and 6Gbps.
DESCRIPTION
This driver provides the CAM(4) subsystem with native access to the SATA ports of controller. Each SATA port is represented to CAM as a sep-
arate bus with 16 targets. Most of the bus-management details are handled by the SATA-specific transport of CAM. Connected ATA disks are
handled by the ATA protocol disk peripheral driver ada(4). ATAPI devices are handled by the SCSI protocol peripheral drivers cd(4), da(4),
sa(4), etc.
Driver features include support for Serial ATA and ATAPI devices, Port Multipliers (including FIS-based switching), hardware command queues
(31 command per port), Native Command Queuing, SATA interface Power Management, device hot-plug and Message Signaled Interrupts.
Same hardware is also supported by the atasiliconimage driver from ata(4) subsystem. If both drivers are loaded at the same time, this one
will be given precedence as the more functional of the two.
HARDWARE
The siis driver supports the following controllers:
o SiI3124
o SiI3132
o SiI3531
SEE ALSO
ada(4), ata(4), cam(4), cd(4), da(4), sa(4)
HISTORY
The siis driver first appeared in FreeBSD 8.0.
