The APA quick guide doc was really helpfull.
Here APA is configured in LAN_Monitor mode.
I followed the doc & reverted back the changes made to the hp_apaconf file & start the hpapa & hplm services & it came up fine.

The above output shows that lan0 in link aggregrate 900. But since I have both lan0 & lan1 in the hp_apaportconf file, why doesnt lan1 also show up in link aggregrate 900

I will try to get a schedule for restart & check the status.

Thanks once again for all you help.

Michal,

Can you explain the below.
Port state for lan0 & lan1 configured in APA for LAN_MONITOR mode shows as off.
The port state should be up - isn't it?

#lanadmin -x -p 0 900

**** PORT NUMBER: 0 *******
Port Mode : LAN_MONITOR
Port State : PROTOCOL OFF
Port Group Capability : 5
Port Priority : 5
#lanadmin -x -p 1 900

**** PORT NUMBER: 1 *******
Port Mode : LAN_MONITOR
Port State : PROTOCOL OFF
Port Group Capability : 5
Port Priority : 3

Hi mjos,

now, it doesn't mean that port is not up
