Well. that is exactly why the xml status page was created. So no hard feelings :=).

Yes I have been using the XML page. Mostly because I am lazy and use some 3rd party Java libraries to parse the XML. :) Regards, On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 7:16 PM, Rene Kluwen <rene.klu...@chimit.nl> wrote: Bearerbox passes messages through from smsbox to the smsc driver, handling them in its own queue. The queue size you want is probably the one that your messages get stuck in. In this case the smsc queue. What I advise you is to request the xml status feed from bearerbox. Parse that file. and add all the queue sizes together. You will end up with the figure you probably want to. == Rene From: brett skinner [mailto:tatty.dishcl...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, 17 August, 2010 19:05 To: Rene Kluwen Cc: Users Subject: Re: Queue Size from status page What does the queue size for the bearerbox represent? I thought this was the total in the system and would be the summation of the individual SMSCs? Maybe I should start off with the goal. What we are trying to do is to make sure that we don't give Kannel too much work to do. So we want to be able to back off until the "queue size" (the number of SMSs it still needs to send on to SMSCs) has fallen to a certain level and then submit again until it reaches an upper level and then back off again. Which queue size should I be using for this? Regards, On Tue, Aug 17, 2010 at 6:05 PM, Rene Kluwen <rene.klu...@chimit.nl> wrote: I think you guessed the answer yourself already. You have to add the queue sizes. Queue size in bearerbox is one. Then you have a queue size in smsbox. and one in the smsc driver as well. == Rene From: users-boun...@kannel.org [mailto:users-boun...@kannel.org] On Behalf Of brett skinner Sent: Tuesday, 17 August, 2010 17:32 To: Users Subject: Queue Size from status page Hi I have looked through the user guide for further explanation of the various queue sizes from the status page but I have found none. Please view the attached jpg. I have circled two queue sizes in red. I have been using the top queue size because I was under the impression that this was the queue size for all messages waiting to be sent out by Kannel. The bottom queue size appears to be the only one that moves. In order to test this I had to attach a fake smsc, set the throughput to 1 and bombarded it with messages. Am I correct and there should be a total queue size for Kannel? Or do I have to go through each individual SMSC and add the queue sizes together? Regards,
