I have cron script that restarts daily by /etc/init.d/asterisk restart
- that way asterisk is completely stopped and then started again. Long
ago, for 1.2 this was helping to reduce crashes on working time.
Anyway - i prefer to restart if i have some inactivity time anyway,
rather than have a small chance that it will crash while lot's of
calls are going trough. So, if you have timeframe when you know for
sure that there won't be any calls, you can restart by initscript.
Otherwise, if you have low call volume in night-time, you may modify
safe_asterisk script to start asterisk anyway (even if it returns ok
exit stats that means shutdown), and then stop asterisk by "stop when
convenient")
