HP UX Auto Port Aggregation (APA) Software manual KportPPA lnyLinkAggregatePPA

•The ports that are not ready to be used in a link aggregation or failover group. A port can be in this list due to:

—The link state of the NIC is down.

—The NIC is experiencing a hardware problem, which is causing unexpected failures.

—The NIC has been configured to run an APA auto protocol and it has not reached a stable state.

•For failover groups, a list of the ports in the "ready" list that have connectivity to the current active port. A port in the ready list might not be displayed in this field because connectivity might have been lost after forming the failover group.

NOTE: This field might not be accurate after a link state change until POLL_INTERVAL

*DEAD_COUNT seconds have expired.

Following is sample output for link aggregation:

Link Aggregate PPA #				: 900
Link	Aggregation		Mode	: MANUAL
Load	Balance	Mode		: IP Address based (LB_IP)
Active Ports		PPA	#	:	3 4
Port(s) not ready				:	5 6

Following is sample output for a failover group (LAN Monitor):

In this example, 3, 4, 5 are in same subnet and 6, 7 are in different subnet, and port 5 is down.

Link Aggregate PPA #	:	901
Link Aggregation Mode	:	LAN_MONITOR
Load Balance Mode	:	Hot		Standby (LB_HOT_STANDBY)
Active Ports PPA #	:	3
Port(s) ready	:	4	6	7
Port(s) not ready	:	5
Port(s) connected to active port :		4

-k-x-kportPPA lnyLinkAggregatePPA

Displays the Administrative and Operational Key for an LACP_AUTO port or link aggregate. Applies to LACP_AUTO only.

-l-x-llinkAggregatePPA

Displays the current load-balancing algorithm for the link aggregate with the specified linkAggregatePPA number.

-m-x-manyLinkAggregatePPA

Displays the status for all link aggregates using any link aggregate in the command. Sample results:
