I have connected with two smpp links.
One of my clients tried pushing messages and i directed them to one of the links. Now the link broke up saying "fd error", hoping the provider cannot accept the messages at higher speeds.
But during that disconnection messages got their way to the store file.
My store file was containing 6000 messages earlier today and now it has over 9000. Each message is important to the client.
Now if i restart kannel i am afraid if all the messages in the store will be sent out.
My question is why the store is piling up messeges? Shouldn't it sent the messages to the available active link?

Both is true.

If a store-file is configured in kannel.conf, then Kannel will resend
messages that were not sent yet before the crash.
If no such file is configured, then those SMS messages will be lost.

Currently there is no other option than an internal-format Kannel-specific
store file.
AFAIK also there are no plans to implement a SQL driven store file.

Subject: SMS message reliability


Hi,

I've recently been reviewing the documents (arch and
userguide) that you have about the SMS Gateway, and
I've come across what seems to be a contradiction.  In
both of the latest architecture documents (1.2.1 and
1.3.2), the "Better Quality" section of Chapter 6
states that Kannel will lose all SMS messages it has
received from an SMSC if it crashes.  Yet, when
looking over the release notes for development version
1.1.4, it states that Kannel can be configured to
store the SMS messages to file until they are
processed.  Anyone know which is true?

On a similar note, if the SMS messages can be stored
to file, are there any other options for storage
(perhaps a database)?  Are these future features or
concepts that have yet to be discussed?

Thanks.
