you might want to check your SC2200 configuration and verify if your
release-mode is set to "Sync"
(http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/sc/rel7/relnote/
rn7412.htm#xtocid2075171). Maybe there is also an inconsistency in the
channel state. This  ISDN-6-CHAN_UNAVAILABLE happens if the AS5800 still
considers a channel as occupied while the SC2200 considers the CIC as
being available.
Which SC2200 version are you using?

Here you had a problem with the IP connectivity between the SC and the
AS5800 so RLM failed over to the other connection.

The ISDN-6-CHAN_UNAVAILABLE is service impacting, the call in question
received a fast-busy so the user had to re-connect.
