Strange issue started with our Asterisk install yesterday.
When dialling out via ISDN BRI the call fails and the following error is logged:
Unable to create channel of type 'DAHDI' (cause 34 - Circuit/channel congestion)
I have restarted the server, checked the config files and confirmed with the Line Provider (BT) that there is no fault on the line.
Incoming calls work perfectly and so does dialling out via PSTN line.
Really could use some suggestions if anyone has any ideas?
