Can't add a second Fibre Channel adapter to a Hyper-V virtual machine

When trying to add a second Fibre Channel adapter to a Hyper-V virtual machine in Windows Server 2019, the Fibre Channel Adapter option isn't available and this error message is displayed:

Cannot add Fibre Channel Adapter
Maximum of 1 Fibre Channel Adapters per virtual machine

The warning that occurs when you try to add Fibre Channel Adapter under Add Hardware.

Windows Server 2019 allows only one Fibre Channel adapter per virtual machine.

To add a second virtual Fibre Channel host bus adapter to a virtual machine, use the Add-VMFibreChannelHba PowerShell cmdlet.
