Hello - I've read Asterisk should be able to activate a do not disturb feature to turn off the ringers on extensions. I checked the wiki and can't find documentation for how to do it.
Here's my attempt, added to extensions.conf: [dnd-on] exten => _#78,1,Answer exten => _#78,n,Wait(1) exten => _#78,n,Macro(user-callerid,) exten => _#78,n,Set(DB(DND/${CALLERID(number)})=YES) exten => _#78,n,Playback(do-not-disturb&activated) exten => _#78,n,Macro(hangupcall,) [dnd-off] exten => _#79,1,Answer exten => _#79,n,Wait(1) exten => _#79,n,Macro(user-callerid,) exten => _#79,n,dbDel(DND/${CALLERID(number)}) exten => _#79,n,Playback(do-not-disturb&de-activated) exten => _#79,n,Macro(hangupcall,) ;further down include => dnd-on include => dnd-off - - - Monitoring asterisk from the CLI, when I dial #78 on an extension, I just get a fast busy signal and this information is reported on the CLI: Apr 3 10:41:33 WARNING[30702]: app_macro.c:144 macro_exec: No such context 'macro-user-callerid' for macro 'user-callerid' Apr 3 10:41:33 WARNING[30702]: func_db.c:97 function_db_write: DB requires an argument, DB(<family>/<key>)=value Apr 3 10:41:33 WARNING[30702]: file.c:504 ast_openstream_full: File do-not-disturb does not exist in any format Apr 3 10:41:33 WARNING[30702]: file.c:816 ast_streamfile: Unable to open do-not-disturb (format unknown): No such file or directory Apr 3 10:41:33 WARNING[30702]: app_playback.c:106 playback_exec: ast_streamfile failed on Zap/2-1 for do-not-disturb&activated Apr 3 10:41:33 WARNING[30702]: file.c:504 ast_openstream_full: File activated does not exist in any format Apr 3 10:41:33 WARNING[30702]: file.c:816 ast_streamfile: Unable to open activated (format unknown): No such file or directory Apr 3 10:41:33 WARNING[30702]: app_playback.c:106 playback_exec: ast_streamfile failed on Zap/2-1 for do-not-disturb&activated Apr 3 10:41:33 WARNING[30702]: app_macro.c:144 macro_exec: No such context 'macro-hangupcall' for macro 'hangupcall' - - - Any tips? All I really want to do is turn off the ringers / do not ring extenstions when I've activated DND. Right now I'm just using a hack which is to shutdown asterisk altogether when I don't want the phones to ring, which of course also prevents dialing out, it's a sledgehammer approach and I'm looking for something more typical. _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
