I solved, I did see the usb port directly to the logical partition

root@CnctMapD01:(/)# lsdev |grep usb
 usb0            Available             USB System Software
 usbhc0          Available 02-08       USB Host Controller (33103500)
 usbhc1          Available 02-09       USB Host Controller (33103500)
 usbhc2          Available 02-0a       USB Enhanced Host Controller (3310e000)


At this point just insert the USB support, do a cfgmgr and then you can mount the device, correct?
