I've heard Vonage uses Asterisk as their VM platform as well. I am
running 1.2beta with a MYSQL backend for extensions and VM user info.
All the sound files and vm messages are being stored through an NFS
mount externally. The reason for this is that there will be several
asterisk VM frontends, all accessing the same config and vm user info
as well as sounds files.


By sound files do you mean the static 'enter your password' type files?
You may do a lot better having those on the individual boxes to reduce
the load on the network.  If its static keep it on the box, as a general
rule.


Are the frontends and the nfs server close enough to easily cable them together? If so just add a nic to each box and a switch. That way you can have a separate lan for that network activity. I helped somebody do a gigabit ethernet lan that had a monster raid5 nfs server on 10.1.1.1 with 6 nfs clients to start out. Next thing he will put on the lan is a dedicated database server.
