[Asterisk-Users] Transferring a call with IAX

[Aaron Daniel]

Heh, lots of voodoo... I've got a drawer full of dolls shaped like servers 
that we stick pins into when something's not working :)

Anyway... um, let's see if I can piece this together, it's kinda 
scattered...

A call comes from SCM2 (the secondary call server) and it starts looking 
for the phone with this:
                 Dial(SIP/${info_forwardto},25);
then using the DIALSTATUS, if it finds that it's in CHANUNAVAIL, it sends 
it to the primary server:
                 case "CHANUNAVAIL":
 			Dial(IAX2/asterisk:password at scm1.shsu.edu/${info_forwardto},25,wW);
                         &uvm(${ext});
                         Hangup;
                         break;

In order to keep the call compartmentalized, on SCM1, we've got:
context from-scm2 {
         _4XXXX => {
                 NoOp(DIALING SIP EXTENSION ${EXTEN} - FROM ${CALLERIDNUM});
                 Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},20,wW);
                 Hangup;
         };

         _6XXXX => {
                 NoOp(DIALING SIP EXTENSION ${EXTEN} - FROM ${CALLERIDNUM});
                 Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},20,wW);
                 Hangup;
         };
};

I think your problem is that the other server isn't hanging up the line 
when it runs out of the queue.  Add this, and it should work for you:

exten => oe_custcare,5,Hangup

Let me know if that works :)

P.S. It's the same on both servers, just the server names are switched. 
Either server can be the primary.  If you want it in extensions.conf 
language, let me know.
