Actually You don't have to create folders in advance, as Asterisk will
automatically create them when needed. Just make sure that Asterisk
process is owner of parent directory.


Set(__call_day=${STRFTIME(|${TIMEZONE}|%Y/%m/%d)});
Set(MONITOR_FILENAME=${MONITOR_DIR}/${call_day}/call-${UNIQUEID});
Monitor(ulaw,${MONITOR_FILENAME},b);
