It certainly makes sense to put the PRI handling on a separate server. The PRI handling is quite time sensitive, so it makes sense to keep it on a less loaded server. I don't know whether it makes sense to use Xen for the IP-only servers though. Xen has traditionally been bad for latency, and even IP-only servers need to handle requests with reasonably low latency. We have had good luck with Linux-Vserver and OpenVZ -- one of those may be able to provide you with the features you require. The advantage is that they use one kernel for both host and guests, so the latency should be no worse than it is for a physical server. /Benny _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
