Mea Culpa?? Since I've only been dabbling with AMI for about 6 weeks, I hadn't stumbled upon the Async parameter. A "more correct" dissertation of the sentence would be
"The AMI originate by default operates in a synchronous or threaded fashion, unless you specify Asynchronous mode using Async: true".

Now all the calls originate instantly with no noticeable delay. -- Zeeshan A Zakaria On Wed, Oct 28, 2009 at 12:18 AM, Matt Riddell <li...@venturevoip.com> wrote: On 28/10/09 3:52 AM, Danny Nicholas wrote: > This might be a better application of a call file than an AMI originate. > The AMI originate in this case has to operate in a threaded fashion, > whereas if you created a call file for each extension and dumped them > into /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing, pbx.c would call all of them at once > without the "first pickup" problem. Not true - you can use Async mode in an Asterisk Manager originate command to create a call and return instantly. -- Cheers, Matt Riddell Director _______________________________________________ http://www.venturevoip.com/news.php (Daily Asterisk News) http://www.venturevoip.com/st.php (SmoothTorque Predictive Dialer) http://www.venturevoip.com/c3.php (ConduIT3 PABX Systems) _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
