'pri show spans ' command shows 2 pris down

Version:
Asterisk 1.6.0.26-FONCORE-r78, Copyright © 1999 - 2010 Digium, Inc. and others.

Situation:
3 PRI’s each with D channel (and all on one trunk group) connected to Digium card on Dell server running Trixbox. All 3 show green lights and signal tested good with carrier. I have a feeling based on the command output below, that only one PRI is being used.

Can someone give me some insight on how I may solve this issue if there is indeed a problem? The command output of several troubleshooting commands and some relevant configuration is below. I have spent some time searching for these answers, but if out there, I have not been able to come up with the right search terms to find the answers.

Command Output:

root@trixbox1 asterisk# asterisk -rx 'pri show spans’
PRI span 1/0: Provisioned, Up, Active
PRI span 2/0: Provisioned, Down, Active
PRI span 3/0: Provisioned, Down, Active
root@trixbox1 asterisk#

root@trixbox1 asterisk# asterisk -rx ‘core show channels’ | awk ‘{print $1}’ | grep DAHDI
DAHDI/22-1
DAHDI/3-1
DAHDI/23-1
DAHDI/21-1
DAHDI/5-1
DAHDI/6-1
DAHDI/2-1
DAHDI/1-1

root@trixbox1 asterisk# asterisk -rx 'dahdi show channels’
This shows 71 channels in service (Didn’t want to bother pasting it all in here)

The channels are provisioned so they will show up. Only 23 should be in service since only 1 span is up.

As far as assistance, could be anything, maybe a bad card.

This is FreePBX support so we can’t help with a trixbox. If you are unaware Fonality formally abandoned that project.

The FreePBX team provided a script to update trixbox’s to current FreePBX distro.

I suggest you look at planning an upgrade so you can access the latest software and support.

Thanks Skyking. I noticed that Fonality abandoned support for the product after posting this, but I figured that since I was referring to the Asterisk based portion of the system, I might get an answer.

I am going to plan an upgrade to FreePBX on this system when I can get it planned and get the script tested.

I basically just wanted to know if the output of ‘pri show spans’ should show that all three of them were up if indeed they were working as intended and from what it sounds like you are saying, they should.

Since this is a FreePBX forum and Trixbox is deprecated though, I agree that the best plan is to migrate.

I do appreciate the assistance and advice. Thank you very much!
