Total agreement with Justin. What you have done at this point is introduced layers of translation and complexity that don't need to be there. A nice design is exactly what Justin suggests below, with the addition of a GateKeeper. The Gatekeeper will add the filter you need to determine if an extension is on your cluster.

<div><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2"><font face="Arial" size="2">IPT customer, with lots of phones. They are using a Centralized model where CallManger and Unity are at the head office providing services for head office and all branch locations. This is a big customer and DN overlapp is a real issue so they decided they wanted to go 4 digit dialing within a given site, and 10 digit dialing between sites.
</font></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2"><font face="Arial" size="2">No problem</font></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2"><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </font></div>
<ul><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2">
<li><font face="Arial" size="2">I setup each location with a different <sitename>Oncluster Partition and added 4 digit DN's to these partitions.</font>
<li><font face="Arial" size="2">phones can dial each other using 4 digits within a site</font>
<li><font face="Arial" size="2">when they dial another site the must dial 11 digits. example to dial Edmonton they dial 917808885180</font>
<li><font face="Arial" size="2">A translation pattern is used to strip the pattern and search the correct sites partition then strip the 91780888 off the number leaving 5180</font>
<li><font face="Arial" size="2">For centralized voicemail, I used different "VoiceMailProfiles" to prefix the numbers going into Unity so when someone from Edmonton dials into Unity 780888 is prefixed to the 5180 putting them into the correct mailbox.
</font>
<li><font face="Arial" size="2">To light MWI lamps, I had to turn Multitenant Mode on so that VM Ports can see the translations created and all works fine</font></li></li></li></li></li></li></font></ul>
<p><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2">HERE is the problem</font></p>
<ul><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2">
<li>When someone has the same last 4 digit dn's at different sites, MWI only works for the site who's partition comes first in the MWI CSS </li></font></ul>
<p><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2">Example Calgary phone with DN 4035555180 and an Edmonton Phone 7808885180</font></p>
<ul><font face="Arial" color="#000000" size="2">
<li>Unity mailbox are as follows Calgary user is 4035555180 and the Edmonton User is 7808885180
<li>both message notification feilds under each subscriber have been changed from the default X to 5180 because the actual extension is only 4 digits not 10 (I THINK HERE IS MY PROBLEM BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT)
<li>I leave a message for the Edmonton user
<li>MWI outbound ports use the Translation pattern to translate 7808885180 to 5180 in the edmOnCluster partition. And tell the phone to dial the lamp code
<li>The MWI-ON CSS has partitions in the order of cgyOncluster - then edmOncluster. It doesn't know better it just matches 5180 to the cgyOncluster and the lamp turns on.</li></li></li></li></li></font></ul>
