Monitoring multiple servers
Hello,
In the documentation about monitoring multiple servers I read the following:
"Later, on the button definition, you might want to specify the server. If you do not specify the server in the button definition it will try to match the device on any of the servers."
If we want to monitor 2 extensions with the same extension number on 2 different servers, how can we specify the server in the button definition? I could not find a server parameter in the extension button definition.
Thanks,
Steve

If you have the same device name on two different servers, fop2 cannot distinguish between the two, no matter if you set the server or not. It will just update the button with that channel/device name. That means that you cannot monitor DAHDI/1 on Server 1 and DAHDI/1 on Server 2 ... well, you can do it but you will have only ONE button in fop2 colleting information for both servers.
If you have the same extension number on different servers, then you must create panel contexts. In a panel context you have to define its own button definition file, where you can have same number extensions mapped to different channel names/servers.
Best regards,
