asterisk users - Sep 2023 - Asterisk 18.14.0 vs 18.18.0 and chan_console/chan_alsa

>Using system() you could issue a asterisk -rx 'core restart now'
So I tried this


exten => s,1,Playback(beep)
exten => s,n,Dial(Console/default,20,g)
exten => s,n,Hangup
exten => s,n,System(asterisk -rx 'core restart now')

But it does not continue. Last thing I see is "Exited non zero"
so its not doing the hangup or the system.

It worked with my test.  I'm on Asterisk 18.19.0

After a hung call, can you run core restart now from the asterisk console?

Doing a "killall -9 asterisk" is the only thing that works
I tried killall asterisk - does not free up the channel
the asterisk "core restart now" takes like a good 20 seconds to return
but
does work.

The issue is I cannot run it after teh Dial() as the
Dial(Console/default,20,g) never returns to the dial plan.
