Quanta lb6m How To Stack?

[Nikinger]

Hello everybody,

I have already found some helpful posts in the forum. Now I have registered to ask a specific question about Quanta lb6m switches.
I hope someone can help me with this.

I have build up an vsan cluster with 4 HP Pro Liant DL 380P G8 Nodes with Emulex oneConnect 10 G/bit connected to 2 Quanta lb6m 10G/bit switches.
Also I have a 1 G / bit network with a cisco 3750e switchstack consisting of 4 switches, which runs well.


My problem concerns only the Quanta lb6m switches. There I can stack maximally 2 ports by means of Interswitchlinks by LAG / LACP. More ports are not possible for me so far. The switches do not seem to support that.
It would be interesting to me if I can assemble the two Quanta lb6m into a switch stack or more than the two ports I have.
Does anyone have any idea how this could work?

Edit:
As you can see in the config, three LAGs are configured. but it only works with two.

Thanks for the tip, but to flush the quantas is at the moment way to risky. If one of them bricks, I have an expensive problem.
As a last resort I would also consider to flush, but first I want to exclude all mistakes in the config.

In the lb6m_manual I read on page 152 that a maximum of 8 ports for LAG are possible. So I have a bug in my config?
But I cant figured it out.

the fastpath version that's out there for the lb6m is a demo build, it's missing a ton of stuff that the manual mentions (like bgp, a web interface, etc). It was designed to be customized by the purchasing parties, not used in production
