This attribute specifies the override holding priority which should be signalled to the VCC connection at the start of the test. Holding priority is of importance in conjuction with IMA links, where some links fail and the resulting bandwidth is less than the requested bandwidth for all connections. In that case, some connections may be released based on the connection's holding priority.

Zero (0) is thie highest holding priority, and four (4) is the lowest priority. A setting of zero to four overrides whatever holding priority that has been configured at the connection (VCC). A setting of noOverride means that the connection should use its internally configured holding priority.
