Based on Tenant ID flie missing

Posted by George on Fri, 06/11/2010

We noticed on ALL servers that have been updated to 6.0.1.81 the "Based on Tenant ID" line is blank in the user extension fields for Call groups and Pickup groups. Looking at the source is seems the value is correct only the text is missing.

< option value = "16" selected > Based on Tenant ID

compared to < option value ="16" selected >

We are not seeming any file we have access to in order to correct this problem. Anyone have any in site into this is problem..?

Alex..?

Thanks
George

i believe its been deliberately removed. I know it was discussed at great length. When enabled it was causing LOTS of problems with MTE distributions that had more than 60 (as in created ever, not just active) tenants (which is just about all of them). It was also unfair to the rest of the tenants that it didnt work for them.

Digium has no intention to increasing the callgroup or pickupgroup allowed value to something > 63 and so Directed Call Pickup is going to have to be the acceptable MTE replacement. The difference is it wont retrieve the first offered call to a group of phones, instead you have to specify the ringing phone to perform the pickup and the call has to have PICKUPMARK set in its dialplan.

Thanks for the heads up Erik,

That being the case why not remove the entire section rather then leaving it with a box with no text..

Thanks
