ODBC Storage

ODBC Storage allows you to store voicemail messages within a database instead of using a file. This is not a full realtime engine and only supports ODBC. The table description for the `voicemessages` table is as follows:

Table 11.1: `voicemessages` Table Schema

Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra
msgnum | int(11) | Yes |  | NULL |
dir | varchar(80) | Yes | MUL | NULL |
context | varchar(80) | Yes |  | NULL |
macrocontext | varchar(80) | Yes |  | NULL |
callerid | varchar(40) | Yes |  | NULL |
origtime | varchar(40) | Yes |  | NULL |
duration | varchar(20) | Yes |  | NULL |
flag | varchar(8) | Yes |  | NULL |
mailboxuser | varchar(80) | Yes |  | NULL |
mailboxcontext | varchar(80) | Yes |  | NULL |
recording | longblob | Yes |  | NULL |

The database name (from /etc/asterisk/res_odbc.conf) is in the `odbcstorage` variable in the general section of voicemail.conf.

You may modify the `voicemessages` table name by using `odbctable=table_name` in voicemail.conf.
