This may be an odd question, but I am wondering if it is possible to change the way Asterisk names the voicemail files.
For example, instead of the number system it uses, msg0000, msg0001, msg0002 etc.. I would like to change it to something like, msg1001, msg1002, msg1003 etc..
The reason being (and maybe someone has a better solution), is that I have 2 asterisk servers, each at different physical locations. The phones "double register" to each server, so if one server goes down, they still have a line that works.
The problem gets to be, if the primary server goes down, and inbound calls roll to the secondary server, voicemails are on the secondary server.
Going forward I use Spideroak online backup to keep offsite history of the servers. Spideroak has a sync feature, that would allow me to keep files in sync between the 2 servers.
Ultimately I would like Spideroak to keep the voicemail folders in sync, so everything is consistent on both servers. However the voicemails having the same names on both servers is a problem because the sync will keep the most recent version, causing a legitimate voicemail message on server a or b to be wiped out.
So in comes the question of changing the naming convention to solve this issue.
Any ideas??
