Hi- I wonder if anyone knows of a way that I can have some event (like an incoming phone call or other stimulus) generate a lot of outgoing calls on an asterisk system. I want to use one asterisk system to load-test another, and this would be necessary. I know that I can have one incoming call generate an outgoing call (or even several calls until one is answered), but I want to generate lots (dozens) of outgoing calls that continue in parallel even if one is answered.

Scott, you can write a file into /var/spool/asterisk/outgoing/ to trigger a call. Some parameters I know are: Channel: Zap/g1/123412341234 MaxRetries: 0 RetryTime: 1 WaitTime: 1 Context: out-context Extension: 432142314231 Priority: 1 Callerid: 111111 Thilo On Fri, 2003-08-22 at 16:08, Scott Stingel wrote:> Hi- > > I wonder if anyone knows of a way that I can have some event (like an > incoming phone call or other stimulus) generate a lot of outgoing calls on > an asterisk system.

That sounds good, Thilo! Now I have to figure out how to set the fields appropriately - but it sounds do-able! Thanks Scott Scott M.

Ok, I found the format in /usr/src/asterisk/sample.call Thanks again, Scott -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-admin@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Scott Stingel Sent: Friday, August 22, 2003 11:26 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Need a "trick" to generate calls That sounds good, Thilo!
