Add or remove adapters from a Link Aggregation or change Link Aggregation attributes.
cfglnagg {-add [-backup] | -rm} [-parent ParentName] LinkAggregation Adapter
cfglnagg [-f ] [-parent ParentName] -attr Attribute=NewValue ... LinkAggregation
This command adds adapters to a Link Aggregation or removes adapters from a Link Aggregation. This command can also be used to modify Link Aggregation attributes. It is not necessary to detach the Link Aggregation's interface to add or remove adapters or modify most Link Aggregation attributes.
Changing the use_jumbo_frame attribute requires the Link Aggregation to be detached. If this attribute is specified, the cfglnagg command detaches the Link Aggregation before modifying the use_jumbo_frame attributes, then brings the Link Aggregation back up. The user is prompted to continue unless the -f flags is specified.
Use the lsdev command with the -attr flag to view all attributes associated with a Link Aggregation device, including adapters.
The failover occurs only if the adapter in the idle channel is up. If the adapter in the idle channel is down, the Link Aggregation operates on the active one and no failover occurs.
