Hi Virendra,

It has been my experience that if two or more calls happen in the same second 
(which is the least identifier you are using to make the file unique) then the 
result is that only one file is created. (the other(s) are not)

To solve that issue, you can use ${UNIQUEID}, something like:

exten => 6000,63,Set(CALLTIME=${STRFTIME(${EPOCH},,
%C%y%m%d%H%M%S)}_${UNIQUEID})
exten => 6000,64,Set(CALLFILENAME=6000-${CALLTIME})
exten => 6000,65,Set(CMD='/opt/lame/l.sh '${CALLFILENAME})
exten => 6000,66,MixMonitor(${CALLFILENAME}.wav|v(2)V(0)|${CMD})

Note that the 1st exten line wraps here in the email but it should be all on 
one line.
