CompletePBX 5.1.26 – PBX Software Updates

Oct 12, 2021 | APP StatExplorer MT PBX, CompletePBX Change Log, VoIP PBX Technical Updates

In this update: Task Manager can now run tasks at a non-precise time to minimize peak resource consumption, ACL supports more than one address, single sign-on to extension and queue, custom application supports patterns, bug fixes

If you are upgrading a Spark system, you may ignore the special instructions.
For any other system of version 5.0.59 or lower please perform the following steps:

1. run
yum install xorcom-centos-release

2.  run
yum update

This will ensure the system will be updated from the correct repositories.

 

Task Manager

  • Scheduler now consumes significantly fewer resources.
  • Running time randomization:
  • Tasks can now be set to run at a randomized (non-precise) time. This is especially useful for multi-tenant or multi-instance deployments in which it is favorable to avoid running scheduled tasks at the same time by all tenants in order to avoid peaks in resource consumption.
  • Randomized tasks will run at a range of +/-30 minutes from the set time or less when the interval time is short. For example, a task scheduled to run every 10 minutes will randomize at +/-5 minutes and not +/-30 minutes.
  • When upgrading an existing system, all default tasks (tasks that are provided as part of CompletePBX installation/image) will be switched to random mode. Custom tasks created by the user will not be affected.  
  • Changing the random-time settings: When creating a new task or editing an existing task, a new toggle allows changing the Randomize status from Yes to No to run a task at a precise time.
  • The main Task tables will now show whether the task is set to run at a randomized time:

SIP Permit/Deny Access List

  • The SIP permit/deny access list (ACL) now supports more than one address per either field.
  • The setting is found under 
  • PBX -> Extensions -> Extensions -> Devices -> Deny/Permit, or
  • PBX -> Hot Desking -> General -> Deny/Permit

Call Center Improvements

  • Dynamic agents in hot-desking environments can now be logged into their respective queues when logging into their extension, avoiding the need for logging in to each one separately.
  • To set Auto Login, go to:
    • Settings -> PBX Settings -> System General -> General -> Hot Desking

Additional PBX Improvement

  • Validation on trunk deletion
  • Callback – the initial call to the PBX (initiating the callback) will not be answered in order to avoid charges for the initial call.
  • Custom Application now supports dialing patterns rather than just fixed numbers.

Bug Fix

  • Incorrect validation for user device and password in GUI – it was possible to set non-valid parameters.
  • Time Group check fails when there is no finish parameter defined.
