[Asterisk-Users] Remote Voicemail

[Christopher Jacob]

Hey all, 

I have a bit of a conundrum I need some help with... 

I have two servers. local and remote... 

The voicemail app lives on remote. 

When a local sip dials another local sip that is not available, I need to go
to the remote voicemail app.

Right now I send it to extension 4600 (which is on remote) and use the
switch command to share the dial plan.

exten => 4600,1,wait(1)
exten => 4600,2,VoiceMailMain(s${CALLERIDNUM})

[macro-vmessage]
exten => s,1,Wait(1)
exten => s,2,VoiceMail(u${ARG1}) 
exten => s,3,Playback(goodbye)
exten => s,4,Hangup


I don't think the CALLERIDNUM is the right variable to pass.


Also, I'm not sure if this is the best solution.

I had hoped that the switch command would allow me to call macros on the
other server, but it doesn't seem to.

Any ideas, help, criticism, etc. would be appreciated.
