We are decommissioning an asterisk server and would like to know how many calls it has processed since it was restarted.

[root@voip2 asterisk]# asterisk -rx 'core show uptime’  
System uptime: 2 years, 31 weeks, 6 days, 15 hours, 23 minutes, 5 seconds  
Last reload: 3 weeks, 18 hours, 34 minutes, 59 seconds

I see what appear call counts in hex but they are for a particular context.

Is there a way to see call counts for the entire system?

Aloha,  
Matt

“core show channels” should have a count at the bottom.
