I should have added this:

HP-E5406zl# show config int b4
interface B4
   name "ASDF"
   no power-over-ethernet
   lacp active
   untagged vlan 1
   exit

HP-E5406zl# show config int b5
interface B5
   name "ASDFG"
   no power-over-ethernet
   untagged vlan 1
   trunk trk4 lacp
   exit

Those are the vSwitch settings I have.

My 5400zl has the three trunks configured manually for the esxi servers and 
each assigned a trk# group.  I have 4 other 4GB Dynamic agg links to 2900 
series switches.

 Here’s a snippet of a  SHOW LACP from my 5400.

B1     Active    Dyn5      Up        Yes       Success   0        0
   B2     Active    Dyn5      Up        Yes       Success   0        0
   B3     Active    Dyn5      Up        Yes       Success   0        0
   B4     Active    Dyn5      Up        Yes       Success   0        0
   B5     Active    Trk4      Up        No        Success   0        293
   B6     Active    Trk4      Up        No        Success   0        293
   B7     Active    Trk5      Up        No        Success   0        294
   B8     Active    Trk5      Up        No        Success   0        294

Okay, I've hit a wall.

Short story setup: We have 3 VMware ESXi hosts. They connect to our network via 
a HP Procurve 2510G-48 at the top of the rack. Each has a pair of Gigabit 
ethernet connection connections going to that switch, setup as a trunk.

We have been dealing with some minor latency issues, mostly the occasional 
timeout on our Mail server's web interface. My current thought is that the 
2510G-48 might not be able to handle the load...

So I've moved the three servers' uplinks to our 5308xl as a test to see if 
these timeouts disappear. The move went smoothly, except on the 3rd host: If I 
have both Gigabit connections enabled on the 5308xl, I cannot ping Host 3. As 
soon as I disable one of the two ports on the 5308xl (either one), it pings.

Switch Configuration:
Port H1-H2 Trnk-1 TRUNK
Port H3-H4 Trnk-2 TRUNK
Port H5-H6 Trnk-3 TRUNK
Each has Spanning Tree Priority 4.

The vSwitch on all the hosts are setup the same way:
Load Balancing: Route based on IP hash
Network Failure detection: Link Status only
Notify Switches: Yes
Failback: Yes

If I can't figure this out, I'll be contacting my vendor for support.

Thanks for any ideas.
