Blade can't see SAN (how do you turn U-Port into F-Port)

hi guys

we've got three ProLiant BL460c G7's inserted inside of a C7000 enclosure. The enclosure is connected to the SAN P2000. The first two blades are able to see the SAN. The third blade we just inserted, is unable to see the SAN.

I've taken a snapshot. Blades 1 and 2 are on ports 1 & 2. Blade 3 is on port 3.
Ports 1 and 2 are 'F'-type ports. Port 3 is a 'U'-type port. When we try to select port 3 and click on the 'Persistent Enable' on the menu, we get an error message saying 'Error when persistent enable port 3 - Bad port'.

I'm assuming this is the reason why we can't get it to work? Can you help?

VMware, a software company founded in 1998, was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies. VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture. Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
