(2) Followed the CCO example using a port template . Made no difference.

Have you verified that it is an etherchannel problem and not a link
problem or a cable problem?

Remove the etherchannel stuff on both ends and verify each of the
3550-1912 links is stable.

Have you seen this? I have excerpted part of it below.

http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/lan/28201900/1928v9x/ee_
scg/2addlfet.htm#xtocid11611

Fast EtherChannel Example

This example shows how to enable the Fast EtherChannel feature in
desirable mode, specifies port 27 or port B as the template port for
member-port configuration, and configures the hot-standby port priority
of Fast Ethernet port B to 100.

switch(config)# port-channel mode desirable
switch(config)# port-channel template port fastethernet 0/27
switch(config)# interface fastethernet 0/27
switch(config-if)# pagp-port-priority 100

Subject: Link flapping PagP 3550 and 1912 frozen

A- Situation: I am using a 3550 and a 1912 to do PAgp.

B- The problem: flapping links on the 3550, frozen 1912

(1) Cat3550#

down
09:44:20: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface FastEthernet0/2, changed state to
down

(2) As soon as the pagp negotiation starts, the 1912 is unaccessible
and the only way to get to it is to shut down the port on the 3550. When
this is done the switch is still unaccessible for another 30 seconds.

C- The configurations

======================

The 3550
======================

............

The 1912

Any suggestions?
