Hi
I just created portchannel, somehow ports are NOT bundled to channel group 33. when I execute I see Po33A. can you guys please explain me ,what is the problem ....
Note: Ports gi6/42,gi8/24 are connected to IBM servers.
Switch1#sh etherchannel summary
33 Po33(SU) LACP Gi6/42(P)
33 Po33A(SU) LACP Gi8/24(P)
configuration looks like
Switch1#sh run int po33
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 144 bytes
!
interface Port-channel33
switchport
switchport access vlan 111
switchport mode access
spanning-tree portfast edge
end

Switch1#sh run int gi6/42

Hi,
Did you configure LACP on the server?

Yeap,
That is somthing to check on the server side. Port-channel noticed difference in configuration and was not able to bundle ports together. Secondary aggregator Po33A will keep the port up but will work as a separate port, like you did not have port-channel at all.
This is some info which can be usefull to understand and TS it:
Hope this helps,
Nik
