VSS is single control plane so it's all one big chassis, the dell switch
would have no idea it isn't connected to a single 6500 and should work
without issues.
VPC is dual control planes using mLAG which is still transparent to the
LAG partner
as long as the control protocol is standard (802.1ax w/ LACP for
example) there *should* be no issues.
stritcly talking about link aggregation here, whatever else you might be
running is another story
as with everything... test it first :)

I'm told Dell VLT is very similar to Nexus VPC.
I plan to connect 2 Dell S4820T switches to a VSS'ed 6500 (QSFP+ breakout
cables)
It would be similar to 2 nexus5/7k's connected to a VSS pair.
Or am I a mad man, dancing with inter-vendor prop tech - and would be better
off with a normal LACP port channel to one 6500, for each switch?
Does anyone have an field experience doing this?
Thanks,
Nick
