You could use the existing ActionList GUI page to accomplish this... for
example I have an action key of "vacation" into which I enter the value
"YYYY-MM-DD to YYYY-MM-DD" then my dialplan parses this to determine wither
to send caller to voicemail after only one ring, or to keep ringing as
normal. In my dialplan I have...
[check-vacation]
exten = s,1,Set(ONVACATION=0)
exten = s,n,GotoIf(${DB_EXISTS(actionlist/vacation)}?vacationstring)
exten = s,n,Return()
exten = s,n(vacationstring),Set(todaydate=${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,%F)})
exten = s,n,Set(vacstart=${CUT(DB_RESULT, ,1)})
exten = s,n,Set(vacend=${CUT(DB_RESULT, ,3)})
exten =
s,n,GotoIf($[("${vacstart}"<="${todaydate}")&("${todaydate}"<="${vacend}")]?onvacation)
exten = s,n,return()
exten = s,n(onvacation),Set(ONVACATION=1)
exten = s,n,Log(NOTICE,Incoming call while on Vacation -- today is
${todaydate} Vacation from ${vacstart} to ${vacend})
exten = s,n,return()
Using the existing GUI you could enter a key of "officehours" and value
"HH:MM to HH:MM" etc etc.
Certainly not as user friendly as a dedicated GUI page, but if the data
doesn't change much then it may be good enough.

Using storage to extend the benefits of virtualization and iSCSI
Virtualization increases hardware utilization and delivers a new level of
agility. Learn what those decisions are and how to modernize your storage
and backup environments for virtualization.
