The examples are based on a single Cisco CallManager cluster. If you have more than one cluster, you must repeat the configuration in each cluster.

For detailed information about how Personal Assistant uses calling search spaces and partitions, see the “Partitions and Calling Search Spaces” section on page 1-4.
