Subject: Quality of Asterisk

Hi,

 

I have a problem with the quality test. So if you have a idea for me ....

 

We test here, Motorola phone with Asterisk. Asterisk play sample to the mobile phone which record this and the inverse.

We have to be sure that Asterisk not make distortion itself.

 

To do this, I tried to play 7 longs files (20 minutes) in parallel (It go out from on zap line and come back on a other line) like this:

 

#i=0

#while i < 7:

#    os.system("make the call number 7%s"%i)

#    time.sleep(80)  //80 sec = 1 column on graphs

#    i+=1

 

And, what I see is that when I launch the sample 77, a delay appear on sample 71,73,74,75,76. Around 40 ms.

 

 

So, next, I try to make 6 calls which play but no record and only one that record.The result was just one little gap of 1 ms on one try and no gap on others.

 

Then, I launch 1 call and I make "hdparm -tT /dev/sda && find / > /tmp/tmp" and make a graph of the result (file Test-114)

The HD is  a WDC WD400BD-75JM

 

hdparm result:

--------------------------8<---------------------------------------------------------

systemtest:/proc/scsi# hdparm -tT /dev/sda

 

/dev/sda:
 Timing cached reads:   4260 MB in  2.00 seconds = 2129.87 MB/sec
HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(null) (wait for flush complete) failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
 Timing buffered disk reads:  170 MB in  3.02 seconds =  56.29 MB/sec
HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(null) (wait for flush complete) failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device
---------------------->8----------------------------------------------------------

 

server: 1Go Ram, Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.20GHz

 cat /proc/interrupts:

 

systemtest:/proc/scsi# cat /proc/interrupts

------------------------>8----------------------------------

 

 

I though it was the Hard-disk and my boss had the idea to make a ramdisk and store the files on a ramdisk.

So, then, the results were perfect but if we make a "hdparm -T" on the disk  while we make records, there are a lot of gaps on files.

 

It's where we are. It's surely a IRQ problem : http://www.asteriskguru.com/tutorials/hdlc_bad_fcs.html

 

Do you think I am in the wrong way or do you know a interresting website or something like that that can help me ?

 

Thanks for your help,

 

Thomas DEILLON
