Awesome thanks Pat. I'm in the process of labbing it so hopefully it works as advertised!<div><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, May 27, 2010 at 11:17 PM, Pat Hayes <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:pat-cv@wcyv.com">pat-cv@wcyv.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

includes users on another server, those users will always be returned.<br>
Digital networking really only replicates directory information and<br>
messages, there's no real time monitoring, so the server wouldn't know<br>
that the other server was offline or unavailable.<br>

Normally, when you try to transfer to a user on a remote server, UC<br>
initiates a cross-server transfer, so the call is actually first<br>
transferred to the remote server and is then transfered from there<br>
(because the transfer rules are not replicated, so they are only known<br>
on the user's home server). There is, however, a field on each user<br>
page called "Cross-Server Transfer Extension", it should do what you<br>
want. Here is the description from the help file:<br>
<br>
"Enter the extension to release transfer calls to if a caller on<br>
another Cisco Unity Connection server attempts to transfer to the user<br>
but the cross-server transfer attempt is unsuccessful. The extension<br>
you enter here is also used to release transfer the call if<br>
cross-server transfer is not configured for the home Cisco Unity<br>
Connection server of the user on the originating server.<br>
<br>
Note : If the cross-server transfer attempt succeeds, this field is<br>
not used, and the home server of the user handles the call according<br>
to the active call transfer rule configured for the user."<br>
