Do you meet this requrements?

For Teaming Policy Check – at least two active uplinks must be in a team and at least two ESXi hosts should be in place and connected in the Distributed Switch

Under LACP there are 2 ports that are active 92 x 10GB) on each host (8 hosts).

I am not 100% sure but LACP may be a reason.

Take a look:

Limitations of the LACP Support on a vSphere Distributed Switch

The teaming and failover health check does not work for LAG ports. LACP checks the connectivity of the LAG ports.
