Can you see the "-C" on the CLI?
I would like to check, if I got the same problem as you and switching transceivers would solve it.

I was able to solve my problemes with changing the transceivers:
there were original HP J9150D-C which were not working but J9150D (without -C) were working. So my Problem was solved

Hi,
Do you have any other transceivers installed in the switch (any third party devices attached)?

Any Follow up?
I have the same Issue between 2 8325 connected with 9150d Transciever:
Show interface transceiver shows RX and TX but i dont get any link:
SW1
RX 0.5539mw TX 0.4264mw - no alarms
interface 1/1/48
no shutdown
speed auto 10g
lag256
interface lag 256
no shutdown
no routing
vlan trunk native 1
vlan trunk allowed all
lacp rate fast
lacp mode active
system interface group 4 speed 10g
SW2
RX 0.2216 mw TX 0.4797 mw - no alarms

lag 256
Interface lag 256

it was double checked to have the fiber correctly crossed

Hi,
I will try it another day to swap one by one. Did your setup work after your one by one swap?
I just dont understand why it is not working with CX Switches and why I cant get a link even though every transceiver receives a signal within operating spec.
Hope someone can explain this to me

Hi, it looks like you've done all the config checks necessary. The only thing I can add is some experience from a recent comware to CX hardware swap. I had comware edge switches connected via SR optics to a comware switch. All fine. Move the fibre to the CX8360 and the liinks would not work. In my case I actually got an occasional flash on the front of the switch, but not enough link to pass frames. Everything was equal because this was a simple hardware swap. Other SR connections on the new CX were fine. Right now I have the old comware switch acting as a media convertor between edge switch and router (ugly).
Note, the fibre length is likely on the limits. I didn't question it with this hardware swap since two generations worked fine before (procurve and comware).
Given that there are constraints on some models such as not allowing LRM, I suspect the power provided per port is lower than other hardware. So my next step if I was you would be to put a known working switch at each end and swap to a new CX one at a time. If using the same interfaces on both switches (but bring one switch to the other's rack) you get a link, you will be observing the same thing as I did.

The interface group config is the same as you posted for all three groups.
For your other questions:
- The fibre is a pink multimode OM4 cable.
- The distance should not be a problem, more on that below
- Cable is not the problem. Works if i connect them directly
- Interface config
- for 8325
- interface 1/1/17
no shutdown
lag 17
- for 6200
- interface 1/1/51
no shutdown
lag 1
- output for show int 1/1/x tran

for the distance:
the weird thing about this situation is, that the distance works fine if I use older switches (8206 and 2610) and transceivers (J4858C) (we need to exchange the old ones).
It looks something like this:
Switch ---------> Panel -----------> Switch
I hope my thoughts are clear enough.

Hi, it could be for a lot of reasons. I would normally start with the physical layer. But with the 8325 I would start with the interface-group config
system interface-group 1 speed 10g
!interface group 1 contains ports 1/1/1-1/1/12
system interface-group 2 speed 10g
!interface group 2 contains ports 1/1/13-1/1/24
system interface-group 3 speed 10g
!interface group 3 contains ports 1/1/25-1/1/36
Then:
- Is the fibre a blue multimode fibre?
- Is it a short enough cable?
- Do you have a second cable to test?
- What is the interface config for each of the physical interfaces?
- what output for "show interface 1/1/x tran"?
- what is the "show interface 1/1/x" on each switch?

Hello,
for whatever reason I cant get a link between an Aruba 6200F and an Aruba 8325 over fibre.
The situation:
Both are lag and lacp active configured. I tripple-checked, if I swapped RX and TX.
The tranceivers are on both ends J9150D and they see each other.
These are the configs:
8325:
Status
Temperature : 23.80C
Voltage : 3.30V
Tx Bias : 5.33mA
Rx Power : 0.39mW, -4.09dBm
Tx Power : 0.51mW, -2.92dBm
interface lag 17 multi-chassis
no shutdown
no routing
vlan trunk native 1
vlan trunk allowed all
lacp mode active
6200F:
------------------------------------------------------------
Lane Tx Bias Rx Power Tx Power
(mA) (mW/dBm) (mW/dBm)
------------------------------------------------------------
1 6.2280 0.3112 / -5.07 0.5372 / -2.70
interface lag 1
no shutdown
no routing
vlan trunk native 1
vlan trunk allowed all
lacp mode active
I hope you can tell me, why I cant get a link between those.
