asterisk users - Feb 2005 - Can agents login be permanent across Asterisk restarts ?

Hi,

I noticed that agents logins (agentcallbacklogin) are reset if Asterisk is
restarted. Can this be avoided in some way ?

Regards,

Rob.

queues.conf

; Persistent Members
;    Store each dynamic agent in each queue in the astdb so that
;    when asterisk is restarted, each agent will be automatically
;    readded into their recorded queues. Default is 'yes'.
;
persistentmembers = yes

As Kevin insinuated, there is support for this in CVS Head.  It's called 
persistentagents and is set through agents.conf:

; Define whether callbacklogins should be stored in astdb for
; persistence. Persistent logins will be reloaded after
; Asterisk restarts.
;
; persistentagents=yes

The default it off, so you'll have to uncomment it to turn it on.  There 
was also a patch contributed in the bug report (M3202) for CVS stable 
that may still apply, if you're not running HEAD and don't want to
upgrade.
