Hi all,
does anyone know if it's possible creating a port channel mixing fiber port with copper one?
With Catalyst series I know it is, but with Nexus I'm trying to create a channel group aggregating port Eth1/48 (10Gb copper) with Eth1/52 (fiber with CVR for 10G), but this is what it returns:
NX_BF1_Pri(config-if)# channel-group 105 mode active
command failed: port not compatible:[Port Type]
** You can use force option to override the port's parameters
** (e.g. "channel-group X force")
** Use "show port-channel compatibility-parameters" to get more information on failure
NX_BF1_Pri# sh port-channel compatibility-parameters | b "Port Type"
* Port Type
Members must be all server or all fabric facing ports.
Thanks a lot
Chiara

It looks like this is a hardware limitation. Can you confirm the switch model you are using....it does not appear to be a 1000v?
You cannot create a port-channel using ports from different ASIC.
Port channels cannot contain both ALE and Network Forwarding Engine (NFE) members.

Can you provide a 'show run' and 'show interface ethx/y' from each of those interfaces?
Anything in the 'show logging log' when you attempt to create this?
