With James reply and help with our Networking folks ,
I was able to configure the auto port aggregation .
There are 2 things done .
1. HP side change 2 files .
/etc/rc.config.d/hp_apaconf :
HP_APA_INTERFACE_NAME[0]=lan900
HP_APA_LOAD_BALANCE_MODE[0]=LB_MAC
HP_APA_GROUP_CAPABILITY[0]=900
HP_APA_HOT_STANDBY[0]=off
HP_APA_KEY[0]=
/etc/rc.config.d/hp_apaportconf :
HP_APAPORT_INTERFACE_NAME[0]=lan6
HP_APAPORT_GROUP_CAPABILITY[0]=900
HP_APAPORT_CONFIG_MODE[0]=FEC_AUTO
HP_APAPORT_INTERFACE_NAME[1]=lan7
HP_APAPORT_GROUP_CAPABILITY[1]=900
HP_APAPORT_CONFIG_MODE[1]=FEC_AUTO
HP_APAPORT_INTERFACE_NAME[2]=lan8
HP_APAPORT_GROUP_CAPABILITY[2]=900
HP_APAPORT_CONFIG_MODE[2]=FEC_AUTO
stop and start /sbin/init.d/hpapa
2. Cisco switch side there is no FEC mode in Gigabit
switch . So we set the ether channel to "desirable "
mode .
Thanks
Vinod
