Our Force10 switches did NOT react well to this when the bond was split between multiple distinct core switches. It was active/passive only. We previously had Dell 6248's switches as our distinct cores and they had no problem with this. I think enabling VLT on the Force10's might help us work around the problem, but we haven't gotten our secondary core switch set up in our new location to test.
