Well..... Your etherchannel configuration seems OK to me but the server side is only half of the equation. Use
# entstat -d ent2
to find out if there are errors visible on the physical interfaces and the link aggregation status. Use the information from IBM Systems Information Center to get detailed status information. If necessary get back to the switch admin to find out whether your Etherchannel config works with the switch port setup.
