Try deleting the adapter and reconfiguring it (assuming it is
fcs1):

rmdev -Rdl fcs1
cfgmgr

The fscsi1 device should come up with 'attach=switch' if the
Cisco switch is in a SAN fabric.

If this adapter was never connected before, there is a good
chance that the initial value of 'attach' will be 'al', since
new adapters usually come with plugs that emulate a loop. As
you said, you cannot change this value on the fly, only by
reconfiguring the device.
