If I recall correctly, you can set LACP parameters that determine how
fast the switch-over occurs between ports, the interval at which the
interfaces send LACP packets, and more. These can be set on either the
OS or switch side depending on the vendor. So if you've determined
that there is nothing wrong at either the physical layer or network
and above, then the link layer is your most likely culprit. Applying
the process of elimination or some other methodology is most advisable
for these types of troubleshooting situations.
