VPC down/port-channel down

jogentry
Level 1
Level 1

I have a pair of Nexus 5548s in the lab. I'm trying to build a VPC to a C220M3 using a P81E adapter. I cannot get the int port-channel 30/vpc 30 to come up. Any ideas?

After a Year and some change I would've hoped there would be a solution to this. i just encountered the same issue myself. Doesn't make any sense. No mismatch on the VPC parameters. The individual link is up/up but the port-channel won't come up. 

What is connected to the other side of the ports? What do you see when you using the following command:

 sho lacp counters interface port-channel 30

 

That older VIC card is not going to respond to LACPDUs.

Your OS would have to be configured to appropriately negotiate an 802.3ad type connection (i.e. redhat bond type=4)

In my case I was using 4 ports to create port channel, 2 from switch 1 and 2 from switch2. Both switches are nexus 3K. All of these 4 ports are connected to a server to provide binding mode 802.3ad. The reason on the switch it shows - down* success success is that your configuration on the switches is perfectly fine. But on the server side the ports are not yet included in the NIC teaming or bonding. When I included all the 4 interfaces in the netplan configuration, the status on the switch automatically changed to up, success success. I am posting my configuration if it might help some one.
