Hi,

So I've changed the configuration last night, eliminating the possibility that 
the issue was LACP. All traffic was handled by the single igb interface. It 
didn't help, at all.


This morning the interface stopped working, without any form of messages and 
started working again after a few minutes. Then, some minutes later it stopped 
again, to resume after a few minutes.


So now I plugged the switch into an em-port and I tried to move the vlan 
interfaces to the em-interface. That worked, partially. The server kept the old 
mac-address in the arp-table. Even after I deleted the vlan interface.


I rebooted the box, and so far so good. But still, any help is appreciated.


Met vriendelijke groeten,

  Onderwerp:    Urgent matter: LACP trunk stops distributing 

Hi, 
 
I've got an urgent matter on my hands, my FreeBSD iScsibox has dropped it's 
LACP trunk twice in the last 24 hours, which causes a whole lot of issues on my 
VPS cluster, using that storage.  
 
It's a FreeBSD box with two igb-interfaces in an LACP trunk with jumboframes 
and vlans. If the connection drops, the only thing I see is: 
 
Apr  1 10:37:18 zstore02 kernel: igb0: Interface stopped DISTRIBUTING, possible 
flapping 
Apr  1 10:37:28 zstore02 kernel: igb1: Interface stopped DISTRIBUTING, possible 
flapping 
 
The switch has nothing to say, so it doesn't seem that there are acual 
linkflaps. I have a feeling that it's this LACP trunk that goes haywire 
somewhere on the FreeBSD side. If anyone can help me with this, I'd be 
grateful. If someone (preferably EU-based) wants to help out professionally as 
a consultant, that would be fine too. Or if anyone knows someone in .nl that 
offers this level of expertise on consultingbase, let me know. 
 
I'm running 10.1-RELEASE on the box, see the (AFAICS) relevant config below. 
The switch is a Brocade ICX6430. 
 
[root@zstore02 ~]# ifconfig lagg0 
lagg0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 9000

    laggport: igb0 flags=1c<ACTIVE,COLLECTING,DISTRIBUTING>
