I understand now. Yes, dahdi_tool is showing the alarm status for
the entire span, and for analog cards, the entire span is always
essentially green. It's the individual channels that can go into red
alarm unlike on digital spans.

Why do you want to add a yellow status? What are you trying to
accomplish that you cannot with the way things are now?

'callprogress=yes' in chan_dahdi.conf won't help you here? It may be
able to detect dialtone before attempting to dial out.
