For that scenario, did you have a look at the Smartlink feature
(check here)? That seems to fit better to what you want to achieve.
LAG only works between single devices, or devices that operate as a single device (VSF/VSX). From your story, you have two ISP links. Are these links transparent L2? Or L3? In the case of L3, you would need to use a routing protocol to make that work, not a LAG which is pure L2.
Still don't understand why you can't put a built-in copper port to 1000-full fixed, think that should work. I found another 6300M, and on that the built-in interface I can't set 1000-full either. Please open a support case, as that seems not expected to me.

hanks for your Response Herman
The interface Type is GigbitEthernet, not SFP port.
the reason I want to configure it manually is that I want to configure LAG and I want to configure it as a Link failover
I have two links from HQ to the MPLS one link (100Mbps) and the other (1000Mbps) I want to configure LAG but as link failover.
My problem here is that the 100 Mbps Link acts as 1000Mbps in the switch Link but the ISP gives only 100Mbps, so when configuring the LAG it will distribute the traffic equally between the Links, I do not need this.
so I tried to configure the speed manual on the interface as 100Mbps, after that I faced another problem that the LAG works only with the interface that is configured manually not with an interface with more speed or interfacefwith prefered priority, so I thought that I should try to configure the interface as 1000Mbps manually to test if it could work with me.
Could you advise me, please?
Thanks,

I think the 1/1/1 port is a SFP56 port. The first copper Ethernet port should be 1/0/1.
