Initially for testing, I'm only using two ports on the same switch.
According to the article, this should work, correct?


<The ports to be used in the aggregate line must be connected to an EtherChannel capable switch or switch pair. When using a switch pair the attached switches will need to be configured in a Virtual Link Aggregation Group (VLAG) also known as a stacked switch pair. Your network administrator will need to enable the switch ports to use EtherChannel in a static configuration with Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) off.

Your Aggregate Policy needs to match whatever is configured on the switches
it's plugged into.

Last time I did this it was to a stacked pair of switches and my policy was:
AGGPCY(*ETHCHL *DFT)
but we have moved in the direction of using VIOS and SEA to do this stuff
rather than doing on the i so much so it's been a while.

Here's a useful article on configuring aggregate lines that might help:

Created a ETHAGG, two resources, CMN08 and CMN09.

Line will not vary on, goes to failed status.

Any thoughts from the group on how to trouble shoot this.
