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,
