Re: [Asterisk-Users] Hard drive write cache
Hi, shadowym wrote: I am looking at ways to harden my asterisk install to prevent computer related issues from happening. I am concerned about about disk write cache. That seems to be a major source of hard drive corruption on power failure. Hard Drive corruption is simply unacceptable for the 99.999% uptime requirements of my Asterisk install that needs to be as reliable as a proprietary PBX. Things to consider: - Use compactflash to boot and run asterisk, add disk only for voicemail - Run the entire setup from a ram disk, make commit/rollback facilities to write to disk - Extra servers are cheap - you could use LinuxHA to failover the server.

[Asterisk-Users] asterisk and nortel meredian option 11c
Hi Koen Van Impe Thanks for the meridian config and asterisk. I will defenitly try them And let every one know. Just a few words and correct me if I am wrong There are two things 1 E1 : the 32 channels once both the equipment see each other and the ccs/hdb3 encoding/format is read the LED infront of interface goes green and this makes the lower layer work. 2 ISDN PRI: once step one is complete we can proceed to the signaling of ISDN PRI that is euro isdn or 5ess or any . I might be wrong But the problem that I face is the first step the e1 never comes up I have and the LED never goes green. I have checked the cable it work s fine with other pri which interms confirms the card also. But with the new config that u have given me I pray it works bcz it is very critical for my organization as we are tired of paying Nortel bags and bags of money and with this idea of using asterisk and interface it with the existing meridian system we see a hope of expanding with very little investment.

Re: [Asterisk-Users]Asterisk -IP- Siemens HiPath 3750
Hi Josué,I just got the confirmation about integrating TE110P with TMS2 of Hipath 3750. Your help will be much appreciated.The configuration is as follow:PSTN - HIPATH 3750 (14 analog trunk lines) - TMS2 - TE110P - Asterisk All extensions of Hipath 3750 are analog (120 extensions)I know that it's maybe easier if we do other way, PSTN-ASterisk (2E-1) - TMS2 - Hipath 3750. But this is not an option, due to some political debat :((( I don't have the tech manual of Hipath yet, but here is what I want to do:1/ Calls from PSTN side arrived on Hipath 3750. Hipath somehow transfer that call into Asterisk box, using TMS2. Asterisk, functioning as an voicemail, feature server (voice log, conference, etc), after some menu prompts, will transfer back the call to Hipath 3750, using the same TMS2-TE110P connection, to one analog extension of Hipath 3750. 2/User of exteniosns of Hipath 3750, when dial out, will be transfered into Asterisk, using the same TMS2-TE110P. Asterisk will do the check of user balance account, LCR, and if approved , will transfer the call back to Hipath 3750, for getting into Analog trunk line. Since for the Hipath, TMS2 is a trunk module, so I suspect that some DISA operation must be enabled on Hipath, so we can enable the path from analog trunk port - TMS2 - Asterisk and back?Is above configuration working? And TMS2 use CAS, so do we have to use MFC/R2 (chan_unicall?)Very interested in your working configuration, can you explain a bit?Thank you and best regards,Nguyen On 5/26/06, Josué Conti [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi I work with equipment Siemens Hipath 3000 and HiPath 4000, I can help you, I do not have manuals technician to send, but if to want can help.

Some of Siemens guys told me that I need an DISA card for this? Is this true?Most of the time the Siemens guys don't know what is Asterisk.

[Asterisk-Users] Queues and macros and agents
When a caller in the queue is connected to an agent, the call is placed to the extension and context specified using Agentcallbacklogin. This allows for me to add extra things to the diaplan *before* calling the agent. Now, I want to be able to use a device, rather than agents. So I can use addQueueMember and add my SIP device. However, I still want to do a couple of things before the device is called. Is there any way of doing that ? I was looking for something like the connected macro in the Dial command. I see that there is an optional agi command - I don't know agi, and will learn how to use it if required, but was hoping that there was something simple that I am missing.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Hard drive write cache
These days you don't have to worry much about your write cache unless you're running application where once single byte changed will affect whole file. Look at it this way, the only corruption will occur is whatever the files were open by asterisk at the time of the crash. And only up to the point where the file was last open. As far as I know asterisk does not keep cdr or log files open so you would loose only the data that was written at the time of the power failure. Any journaling file system (ext3, resierfs, xfs, etc) will easily handle any power failure event. Your files will not be corrupt but could miss some of the data. At the most you will loose 10-50 cdr entries written to you log files. If you post CDR to a remote SQL database then you asterisk install and linux is more or less static and will not be affected by the power failure. What you need to do is minimise the writes to hard disk's: 1 - Send syslog to remote server and do not do ANY syslogs Or keep the circular buffer in memory if you have plenty of it. 2 - Send CDR's to SQL server (or log to ramdisk and send to remote server every few minutes via SSH) 3 - Do not record any calls (or do that somewhere else) 4 - Stop any services that write/read data on regular intervals. If you have no writes you have nothing to worry about during power failure and journaling file system will take care of the rest. Keep your partition size really small so that fsck will not take much time. You have to be realistic, you cannot achieve 99.999% uptime. That's 5 minutes per year downtime. You will have more or less 100% until your first hardware failure. Even if you have all the hardware components pre-purchased it will still take you 2-12 hours to detect, diagnose and fix the fault if you lucky. So your 5 minuets If the business is demanding 99.999% then it should be prepared to invest into the hardware. I would recommend a cluster or even better a fault tolerant server. Those are expensive but you can pretty much rule out the hardware failure and swap all of the failed components while the system is running (cpu, memory, hdd, etc). Look at Stratus or NEC FT servers if you need hardware redundancy. They're expensive but will give you the hardware reliability you need. Or get a traditional PABX :) -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:asterisk-users- [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of shadowym Sent: Tuesday, 13 June 2006 10:34 To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Hard drive write cache I am looking at ways to harden my asterisk install to prevent computer related issues from happening. I am concerned about about disk write cache. That seems to be a major source of hard drive corruption on power failure. Hard Drive corruption is simply unacceptable for the 99.999% uptime requirements of my Asterisk install that needs to be as reliable as a proprietary PBX. Of course I will be using redundant power supplies, raid 1 and use a UPS. None of those things mean much if the power cords accidentally get pulled from the back of the server. Unlikely as it may be I have to consider ALL possibilities. So is disabling the write cache a good way to reduce the risk of hard drive corruption for an Asterisk server? I am not too concerned about the reduced performance/lifetime of hardrives with write cache disabled since Asterisk is not a very write intensive environment. Even with lot's of voicemail going on.

Apparently the way to do it is to use SER to handle all the SIP fluff (REGISTERs mostly) and then use Asterisk as a gateway for PSTN access. I used to do it but then realized that I didn't need it since I work mostly with wholesalers and don't have that much SIP signaling to deal with anyway. Then after that, you can use Asterisk simply as a B2BUA. As long as you don't do any transcoding, you will be fine. Currently I have 15-20k minutes daily going through an Asterisk box which just does two things: - Keep CDRs records in a database (using cdr_odbc) - Does dialplan functions (prefix manipulation, access control using contexts), load balancing (to balance traffic between multiple gateways, using Macros and Random()), and least cost routing. The machine is rather low-end (Sempron 2400+, 1 Gb RAM) but the load average is only about 0.2 and the CPU usage is around 10%. So for a low price tag of around €500 per unit, I can easily afford to have a second machine which can quickly take over if the main is down. All the transcoding and the echo cancellation is being handled by proprietary SIP VoIP gateways such as Audiocodes (excellent hardware, I recommend it). I use FreeBSD + Postgresql + unixODBC + Asterisk. I have set up a minimal Asterisk (use autoload = no in your modules.conf) and Asterisk's memory footprint is around 28M. The machine doesn't swap or hang... after a lot of research it seems I've found the combination which works for me! It took me two days + one sleepless night to set up though :) Cheers, Jean-Michel. -- Jean-Michel Hiver - http://ykoz.net/ Découvrez la Réunion des Technologies IP Telecom TEL: +262 (0)262 55 03 98 - RCS 434 273 330 SAINT PIERRE ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

My installation currently has an aging Inter-Tel Axxess box with a T1 coming in (16 in, 8 out). Rather than adding and replacing phones and cards as they die, I would like to slowly migrate to a asterisk SIP installation. I want to take the incoming T1 line, use any available outgoing lines for outgoing SIP, intercept any incoming lines and either send them off to a SIP line or pass them through to other T1 line (going to the Axxess box), and finally take in outgoing calls from the Inter-Tel box and either send them to SIP or send them to the outside T1 line. How will a dual T1 card be set up in this situation? Would it be easier to use an FXO channel bank (or card) and connect analog lines to the FXS analog lines on the Inter-Tel box? ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] PRI Broke on 1.2.9.1?
Hi Everyone, This morning I upgraded Asterisk from 1.2.7.1 to 1.2.9.1 along with libpri to version 1.2.3 and Zaptel to 1.2.6. Then stopped and restarted all the Asterisk and Zaptel components. Service resumed as usual but after about 30minutes the console was filled with errors and the PRI ZAP channel (Digium TDM 2 Span) stopped answering calls. The errors where as follows: pri_dchannel: Ring requested on channel 0/1 already in use on span 1. Hanging up owner Forcing restart of channel 0/9 on span 2 since channel reported in use Channel 0/9, span 2 received AOC-E charging 0 units channel.c:787 channel_find_locked: Avoided initial deadlock for '0x74c570', 10 retries! At first I thought it might be a problem with my telco provider (BT) but I decided to downgrade to 1.2.7.1 and everything works fine like it did before the upgrade. Im just wondering if something to do with PRI / Zaptel has been broken in the update?. Any Ideas? I really need this update as it appears to fix a bug that I have with IAX2 which stops listening to frames and timeouts all calls even when the latency is averaging 5ms. Thanks Chris Teesdale I.T.

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Realtime and Ex-Girlfriend
Hallo all, Last night I have successfully setup Asterisk Realtime with mysql. but I have one problem regarding the Ex-Girlfrind-Functionality. The example: I have a fax running on a specific extension (300) and I want that one to call out via ISDN, but it simply gets IGNORED. I have tried _X./300 = Dial(zap/g1/${EXTEN}) but what happens now is that (because of includes defined) all other calls are using this extension, even if somebody completely different (for example 55) wants to call outside. The dial itself works, but i simply just want it running as usual in extensions.conf. I now (temporarily) have made a GotoIf function before the standard dial, but that definitly isnt a very nice option. Help in this manner would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Nguyen. The Asterisk with configured 50 SIP Phones is integrated with HiPath 3750, through a board TMS2. For access the PSTN I created a context in asterisk so that asterisk has access HiPath 3750 and uses the LCR's that I configured in the HiPath. The CDR's do asterisk is registered no billing do HiPath that is the Siemens Call Report. The system of voicemail for all the set (HiPath 3750 and Asterisk) I use the Asterisk with access to the Internet, where all the 120 users receive its messages perfectly and also they receive copy from the message for email.

Software echo cancellers are simply not good enough for many situations. Actually that's untrue. I think (hope) that Steve Underwood will jump in here and correct me, but it's my understanding that the only real reason why the software echo cancellers available in Zaptel don't work as well as the hardware echo cancellers from Tellabs and the Octasic chips in the Sangoma and Digium hardware echo cancellers is because of implementation. There is a spec for echo cancellation on PSTN called g.168. I believe it's a suite of tests which put the echo canceller through its paces and if you pass them you are certified to conform to g.168. None of the echo cancellers in zaptel conform to this, whereas the Octasic, Tellabs and other hardware echo cancellers all do. If someone were to put the effort and energy into making the software echo cancellers compliant, you should find similar results to the hardware echo cans. The echo cancellers in Zaptel are far better than anything I could throw together myself, and there's a lot of heavy math and dark juju hiding inside that optimized code, but they're all still very much proof of concept and test code compared to a true g.168-compliant echo can. Basically they're there for free and might get you what you need, but they're certainly not a reflection of all that is possible with a general CPU echo canceller.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Unicall acting really funny
Joao. The more important thing about testcall is that it allows you to isolate the problem (you dont need asterisk) . I would recommend you to read this document I wrote: http://phpmexic.u33.0web-hosting.com/wordpress/misc/mfcr2-asterisk-unicall.pdf Here is described a bit more detailed. Is in spanishg, but since im able to read portuguese I think may be you can understand it. The more important thing is to increment testcall logging verbosity. For that you need to edit testcall.c, there you will find a function named run_uc(), search the logging_level variable and let it be UC_LOG_SEVERITY_MASK, then make testcall and run the test again but use only in 1 circuit. That will show in wich part of the initial signaling is staying stuck. Other more clear test is modify mfcr2.c, in the first line it has commented a #define AUDIO_LOG, uncomment it and libmfcr2 will save all the audio signalingin in a couple of files in the same folder you execute testcall. ONce done that, you can send me the audio files and the logging messages and may be I will be able to know what the problem is.

[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk and TBCT
Hi Guys, I'm starting to work on Asterisk, trying to see if it will fit our needs, but so far it seems it doesn't support TBCT(Two B Channel Transfer). I've found a couple of links that was talking about TBCT, and someone had posted a bounty for that feature, but no news since 2003. I've also seen that it seems there is some support in libpri, or work was done around 2005 for TBCT and there's a mention about supporting TBCT but only with 5ESS. And at the moment I don't have the equipement to try it out, so before we do try it out I was trying to investigate a bit. In the case that there's no support for TBCT, is there other possible way we can do it ?

For outgoing call, i name the channel ZAP/1 in extensions.conf file, but i dont know if it's correct. And i always have the message timeout, but no rule 't' in context What's mean?? There is no extension named t in that context to handle timeouts. Your dialplan reads: [PSTN] exten = 1,1,Dial (IAX2/300,20) exten = s,2,Voicemail, u300) So no timeout action is specified. Ignore it if you don't just want to have the call disconnected on timeout without taking any other action. I'm not sure if the space after Dial is legal. I figure it may be the source to your problem. Do you get an error in the CLI when reloading? Before reloading: set verbose 1 to see only the relevant warnings. I have the same message!

[Asterisk-Users] echo sidetone grandstream and tdm400p
Hi all, thanks to the all of you. This list is very interesting also for a newby like me. My problem: I just setup my first full working asterisk installation with this config: 1. n.1 GXP-2000 2. n.4 Budgetone 102 3. n.1 TDM400p (3 FXS, 1 FXO) Everything seems to work fine, but the sidetone... it's really annoying! We can hear the sidetone only when we call to the outside (PSTN), it doesn't matter if we call a local, a mobile or a longdistance call. Only we hear the echo, not the called party. We do not ear any echo in internal call to each other extensions. I tryed every possible setting of the echotraining, of the rx and of the tx gain, but with no success. Any idea or help?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] IAX2 Vs SIP cpu load
I use IAX2 quite a bit and I haven't really noticed any difference between IAX2 and SIP. CPU usage in Asterisk is aggravated by transcoding, changing one audio format to another, and SIP or IAX2 is simply the protocol used to carry the audio. Any function of Asterisk will be affected by high system load; if you have a loadaverage of 3, for example, your box is in trouble regardless of the protocol used. Although this may have changed in the newer 1.2.X series of Asterisk, I believe that Asterisk does not support SMP from the perspective of dispatching *internal* processes to different CPU's, instead, *external* processes such as AGI's are balanced out and dispatched automatically to different CPU's - but this is a kernel thing. It's generally well-known that a fake SMP machine such as a HyperThreading CPU affects Asterisk negatively, and best practice is to disable HyperThreading. However, real SMP machines have no trouble (I use a 4 way Xeon). It's possible to pin a process to a specific CPU, and in fact, I do this to force Asterisk to it's own CPU, and pin all other processes to a specific CPU that Asterisk does *not* use: setasteriskaffinity.sh: #!/bin/bash ASTERISKPID=`ps -A | grep -a -A0 asterisk` taskset 0x0003 -p ${ASTERISKPID:0:5} This pins Asterisk to CPU # 4 on a 4 way system.

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Can this config sustain 30 users?
Well thanks all for your responses. My original intention was to address the mistic know-how about machine calculations, and I still feel the shadows remain. Why? Because to achieve a 24 user PBX-only/One E1, I was going to install a Dual Xeon with 2 GB of RAM and a 3ware card runing RAID-1 with two sata3 disks. Now This thread tells me that my dual core pentium d (a 700$ computer) will do the work. (the other equipment costs about 3500.00$). I do realize that i must minimize transcoding (ulaw all the way) but you're telling me it will work for 24 users (let's say 30 for round numbers) all with SIP phones in an IP network. Below are some comments that i found googling and doing some calculations myself. I do not enforce or deny any of them, please feel free to tell me if Im wrong. (not confirmed)a- A voice channel takes 30mhz (60mhz in duplex mode). So A 2.66 Ghz CPU can sustain about 43 calls (2600mhz/60mhz=43calls), not taking into account other factors that may increase/decrease the number of calls at the same time. b- 24 users talking ulaw (-+ 80kbps per channel) consume 1920kbps and in full duplex they consume 3840kbps (about 3.75 megabits/s). c- To Calculate the bandwidth DDR memory can achieve (example PC4200) ,to get the transfer rate, multiply the width of the module (8 Bytes) by the rated speed of the memory module (in MHz): (8 Bytes) x (533 MHz/second) = 4,264 Mbytes/second or 4.2 Gbytes/second (34gigabits/s), hence the name PC4200 So, will all of this in mind, CPU Dual Core 533FSB, 2.66 Ghz speed DDR533mhz, One gigabyte.

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Can this config sustain 30 users?
Maybe you are over thinking it. I have 200 users on a quad Xeon 700 with 2 PRI's and we regularly have 40-60 channels up, no problem (believe me, if there was a problem I'd have 200 guys freaking on my head). I rarely see 30% single-CPU usage, and that's only when Sendmail is invoked to send out a voicemail. But yes, transcoding and reasonable echocancel values is key. If you are connecting to the PSTN, ulaw all the way. If you are connecting to a provider, use the codec of your choice as long as your provider supports it, and make sure every phone and endpoint is set to use the same codec. I also have 30 IAX remote sites that support from 1 to 5 users, on P-II 233's. I use them because they are bulletproof and they are so cheap if something gets hosed we just throw it away and put in another one. Again, no problem Maybe try your cheapo machine and if it doesn't work try a better box. You already have the cheap machine, and the card will remain the same regardless of what box you use. -Original Message- From: Erick Perez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 13, 2006 9:15 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Can this config sustain 30 users?

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Hard drive write cache
The cold hard truth is that if Asterisk cannot achieve 99.999% uptime without becoming much more expensive that a traditional PBX then it is not a viable alternative. Even elcheapo Key systems are rated for five nines. That is what the telco world requires unless your just using Asterisk in your basement as a hobby or as a one man company. Redundant Servers is moving into the realm of non-competitive with Traditional PBX IMHO. I don't care about corruption of the CDR or any of the logging/database information. All I care about is the ability make phone calls after power failure. That IS the MAIN function of a PBX.

Look at it this way, the only corruption will occur is whatever the files were open by asterisk at the time of the crash. And only up to the point where the file was last open. As far as I know asterisk does not keep cdr or log files open so you would loose only the data that was written at the time of the power failure. Any journaling file system (ext3, resierfs, xfs, etc) will easily handle any power failure event. Your files will not be corrupt but could miss some of the data. At the most you will loose 10-50 cdr entries written to you log files. If you post CDR to a remote SQL database then you asterisk install and linux is more or less static and will not be affected by the power failure. What you need to do is minimise the writes to hard disk's: 1 - Send syslog to remote server and do not do ANY syslogs Or keep the circular buffer in memory if you have plenty of it. 2 - Send CDR's to SQL server (or log to ramdisk and send to remote server every few minutes via SSH) 3 - Do not record any calls (or do that somewhere else) 4 - Stop any services that write/read data on regular intervals. If you have no writes you have nothing to worry about during power failure and journaling file system will take care of the rest. Keep your partition size really small so that fsck will not take much time. You have to be realistic, you cannot achieve 99.999% uptime. That's 5 minutes per year downtime. You will have more or less 100% until your first hardware failure. Even if you have all the hardware components pre-purchased it will still take you 2-12 hours to detect, diagnose and fix the fault if you lucky. So your 5 minuets If the business is demanding 99.999% then it should be prepared to invest into the hardware. I would recommend a cluster or even better a fault tolerant server. Those are expensive but you can pretty much rule out the hardware failure and swap all of the failed components while the system is running (cpu, memory, hdd, etc). Look at Stratus or NEC FT servers if you need hardware redundancy. They're expensive but will give you the hardware reliability you need.

Unlikely as it may be I have to consider ALL possibilities. So is disabling the write cache a good way to reduce the risk of hard drive corruption for an Asterisk server?

Re: [Asterisk-Users] Can this config sustain 30 users?
Hi Erick - Now This thread tells me that my dual core pentium d (a 700$ computer) will do the work. (the other equipment costs about 3500.00$). I do realize that i must minimize transcoding (ulaw all the way) but you're telling me it will work for 24 users (let's say 30 for round numbers) all with SIP phones in an IP network. I do more with less hardware without any problems. In one of our offices I have a single P4 2.8Ghz with 1GB Ram and two SATA RAID 1 drives. This machine currently serves about 35 sip phones (about 25 actively used), has a TE410P with one PRI, a TDM22 handling 2 backup POTS lines on the FXO's and fax machines on the FXS's, and connects to 6 other offices via IAX that transcode to GSM. It also acts as a DNS resolver, the FTP server for the Polycom SIP phones, and runs NTP. At one point I had it running FOP, which is fairly resource intensive. It could very easily handle much more. Top shows the CPU is between 92% (12 active channels) and 99.8% (2 active channels) idle, and memory usage at about 470MB total, 290MB active. All this is to say that you have plenty of hardware for your current needs and considerable growth. - Noah ___ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- Asterisk-Users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

[Asterisk-Users] [Repost] Asterisk realtime
Hi Andrea, yes you can, static realtime helps you out with replacing config files one by another. The real realtime you mean is for the dynamic backend, which gives you the ability to be reread with every call, so asterisk doesnt even need a reload. So the main difference between static and real is simply the static part only gets loaded at startup/reload. The real realtime asterisk looks up every time something happens e.g. a call is being made. Main configuration for static and real is made in /etc/asterisk/extconfig.conf you should although never mix up both in one particular type. What I mean is if you add IAX realtime support with something like iaxpeers = mysql,asterisk,iax_peers iaxusers = mysql,asterisk,iax_users you shouldn't make an additional static like here: iax.conf = mysql,asterisk Here you will find all information you will need, to setup the static and real realtime: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki-Asterisk+RealTime Hope this helped -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Best regards, Michael E.
