Narrative:
Climbing out of stt, controller assigned us FL330. Passing FL195, we observed another aircraft on TCASII, opposite direction, at FL210. Captain directed me to stop climb. At FL205 we received an RA. We alerted center and descended to FL200. We had visual contact at approximately 2 NM, leveled at FL200 until traffic passed, then resumed climb to FL350.

Title: ARTCC RADAR CTLR CLBED AN ACR B757 THROUGH ALT OF ANOTHER ACR. THE B757 RECEIVED A TCASII RA AND STOPPED CLB BELOW THE OTHER ACFT AND WATCHED HIM PASS OVERHEAD WITH LTSS.
Narrative: CLBING OUT OF STT, CTLR ASSIGNED US FL330. PASSING FL195, WE OBSERVED ANOTHER ACFT ON TCASII, OPPOSITE DIRECTION, AT FL210. CAPT DIRECTED ME TO STOP CLB. AT FL205 WE RECEIVED AN RA. WE ALERTED CTR AND DSNDED TO FL200. WE HAD VISUAL CONTACT AT APPROX 2 NM, LEVELED AT FL200 UNTIL TFC PASSED, THEN RESUMED CLB TO FL350.
