Friends, I recently joined a new group, I am a novice on the 7k and was asked to bring up some new ports and assign them to port groups. I did a stare and compare on the existing ports and followed suit. The first interface on top and bottom works fine, the second interface the serves will not ping at all, when i disable one of the ports it works fine, can someone see what I’m doing wrong?
config on the two ports (1top1bottom) that are working fine
7kTop
interface Ethernet9/7

switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk allowed vlan 2,184,306,309,900,902

no shutdown

What is the Server ? how is the Server configured - Active/Active or Active Standby ?
If you want to bundle the Link ? why they are configured 2 vPC 907 and 905 ?

Sorry no the ports on Eth 9/7 top and bottom are configured on port channel 907 and are shown as an example because its working. The ports on Eth 9/5 top and bottom are configured the same way on port channel 905 but when both are up the server doesn't have any connectivity pings fail, if i take one down the other works fine.
the Servers are running esxi 6.0 U3 and from server end we are doing Active/Active NIC teaming. Load balancing - Route based on IP hash Network failure detection - link status only
thanks for any help

Is there any reason you can not bring all of them in one vPC ?
