Hi,
I`ve been trying to figure out voicemail, but there is something
that is obviously escaping me. Using * 1.2.3, standard built with
asterisk-addons.
I have two voicemails, one is 702 and one is 705. Both in
different contexts, but that doesn`t matter (I think). The point
is in the /voicemail/context/702 directory I have the files
unavail.gsm, temp.gsm and greet.gsm. While in the other directory,
I have greet.gsm, unavail.gsm and busy.gsm.
So in one directory I have temp.gsm and in the other busy.gsm. How
did that happen and what does it mean? What i found out is that in
the one voicemail that doesn`t have temp.gsm, when somebody tries
to leave me a message that person gets an asterisk greeting (as
opposed to one with my wonderful voice).
Also, WHEN are the file used? I have the option of recording my
busy message and my unavailable message, but really, how does
Asterisk choose which one I am? (unavailable vs busy)?
This isn`t clear to me, hopefully somebody has a quick and simple
answer.
simplified answer
If the phone rings then goes to vm it is unavailable. If the phone
does not ring it is busy.
More detailed
If you phone is set to allow n calls to ring in and n+1 tries, then
the phone will return a busy
If your phone is in do not disturb it will return a busy
If you phone is unreachable it will return a busy
Mostly depends on your phones exactly how/when things happen, but
definately controllable from the dialplan also
