If a DATA-CHL is busy but is not being used for one of these links, then it is b eing
used for a secondary ad ministration terminal connectio n or for maintenance
testing. If it is being used for a secondary admi nistration terminal connection,
then in order to test the DATA-CHL that the connection is using, the DATA-CHL
must be busied out using the busyout data-module <ext> command.
NOTE:
The busyout data-module <ext> command causes the connection ove r
the associated DATA-CHL to be dropped. Do not issue this command
unless instructed to d o so.
If the DATA-CHL must be busied out in order to perform maint enance testing, the
secondary admini stration terminal connection must b e re-established by
redialing the DATA-CHL.
