Ah, right, that works. I had thought the purpose of members is for sequential hunting. looks I was wrong.
However, add a | sep'ed dial string is hard to do round robin hunting, as we don't want the first agent always busy while others have nothing to do. It is possible to add/delete members using another script to set different dialstring to emulate a round robin hunt, but why not implement it in the queue logic?
Other strategies to place calls could be added with a patch to the code. The goal of the module was to be basic and have
most of the control and logic remain outside the module.
questions:
1) What's the purpose for members? just for simultaneous ring?
They are essentially on-hook agents for a setup where you don't need people waiting on the phone.
2) What's the best use case of agents dial in a fifo to wait callers? They just listening to music and waiting if no caller? I guess that would be for very busy call centers.
Yes its so you can call in an pop all the calls off the fifo in the same one call.
3) In my test, other members keep ring after one answered, some times it even ring a long time after the caller hangup.
It's not ring-all, there is exactly one outbound call generated for every one person in the queue who is waiting so sometimes there is collateral damage.
I'm currently using trixbox. when a call comes in, it just play a greeting and ring one free agent and fail over to other agents if no answer or playing moh if all agents are busy. I just want to implement the same logic in FS and replace it as * causing a lot of problems.
I know there are already rules of how to pull a call out from a fifo, and guess it would be possible to add some params to do sequential/round robin hunting for members, and by using dp tools to dynamically add/delete members it would me more powerful.
You could post it as a bounty, a change like that is a lot to do as a wish request.
Thanks.

Add one <member> with a | sep list in the dial string.

Hi,
I'm on trunk 13174, and route a call to fifo, but two members ring at
the same time. I want it ring one by one in a round robin manner,
what's wrong with me?
here is fifo.xml
<fifo name="sales_fifo@$${domain}" importance="0">
<member timeout="60" simo="1"
lag="20">{fifo_member_wait=wait}user/1009@$${domain}</member>
<member timeout="60" simo="1"
lag="20">{fifo_member_wait=wait}user/1001@$${domain}</member>
</fifo>
We want to implement a call center where agents register to waiting
customers, when a customer calls in, it will drop in a queue and
search one available agent(in round robin manner). Most fifo functions
seems implemented for scenarios where agents dial in and waiting
callers, which is unnecessary on our condition.
Thanks.
