Trunk Type Question

I am wondering what type of Trunk to use in the follwoing situation for optimal performance and redundancy.

 

2 HP 5820's connected via IRF.  These connect to a 5400 using 4 10 gig fiber cables across 2 10 gig line cards in the 5400. 

 

5820 options

Static (LACP Disabled)

Dynamic (LACP Enabled)

 

 

5400 Options

LACP Status - Disabled, Active, or Passive

Trunk Type None, Trunk, LACP, dt-lacp, dt-trunk

 

My 2nd question is I am teaming 2 10 gig network cards in several Hyper-V Host servers.  On the host I have selected LACP teams within the intel management console.  These teams will connect to the 2 5820's providing redundancy.  Similar to my question above what would be the best way to configure the 5820 for each Server host team?
