Thanks for the input Jim and Leo. Jim: - At the time no channels were being used either inbound or outbound. Inbound was failing or not reaching the system (I can't see any CDR but I didn't have any debug turned ON pri at the time to see if it hits the system or not) - This is a full weight 23 channel pri with 24th as the D-Channel. - So, where do we go from here to check why B-Channels weren't available when none of them were being used? Leo: Nothing really alarming in /var/log/messages except for these (In fact nothing at all related to span 1): Apr 16 19:32:13 pbx ntpd[3190]: synchronized to 209.167.68.100, stratum 2 Apr 16 20:49:33 pbx kernel: wanpipe2: Module 6: Line disconnected on span 2! Apr 16 20:49:34 pbx kernel: wanpipe2: Module 6: Line connected on span 2! Apr 16 21:13:59 pbx ntpd[3190]: synchronized to 208.80.96.70, stratum 2
Note: above only concern span 2 which is an analog Sangoma A400DE card and not the PRI as the PRI is on span 1. It's only alarming to me because the IP addresses are not known to me. But I am guessing those are just used for NTP??!!
