In capacity planning for production Asterisk servers it is essential to have an accurate statistical picture of the utilisation of finite resources such as disk space, CPU utilisation, B channels on PRIs, and G.729 codec licences.

The first two have well defined measurement tools.

The last two (B channels and G.729) can be measured in real time using "show channels" and "show g729" but there appears no way to obtain from Asterisk the maximum number of B channels that have been in use or the maximum number of g729 codecs that have been in use. Also there seem not to be any tools for collecting this information over time for statistical analysis.

What do people do to monitor increases in channels/g729 licences so to plan ordering more of each?

Thanks for your suggestions.
