Greetings:
The "0514-061 Cannot find a child device" is common when the FC card is either
not attached to a FC device, or if it is attached, then I would look at the
polarity of the cable
ie. (tx -> rx and rx -> tx) NOT (tx -> tx and rx -> rx)
cfgmgr is attempting to configure the FC device it is connected to (child
device) but is unable to see it.
In this context, device would be some sort of FC endpoint, not just a switch or
director.
I would make sure the FC card has connectivity to a FC device, not just the
fabric and re-run cfgmgr.

:
Put in your OS cd in the cdrom drive and run:
cfgmgr -vi /dev/cd0
this should load any filesets you need for the adapter if they are not
already there. You should the adapter in lsdev -Cc adapter | grep fs.

Subject: Cannot cfgmgr on a new FC
I am trying to connect a new HBA on a P660 to a switch for a SAN. This HBA
has not been used previously, newly cabled etc. I issued the following
commands and receive the following errors:
* rmdev -Rdl fsc1
0514-519 The following device was not found in the customized device
configuration database: name 'fcs1'
* cfgmgr
0514-061 Cannot find a child device
Looking for ideas as to root cause.
