Re: [asterisk-users] Noise on FXS ports (Sangoma)
Hi, What about your timing source? Did you check with zttest if you had any interrupt loss? Do your card share interrupts with other source? Are you using a Xen kernel or an IDE hard drive without DMA activated? François. Stephen Bosch wrote: Hi, Jorge: Jorge Mendoza wrote: Never experienced with FXS modules on a PC with Asterisk.

Have you tested the PC isolated, with not lines and not switches? just the FXS calling the voicemail? No, I haven't gone that far yet, but it might be worth trying. One question I have: if this turned out to be the cause, what could I do to clean up the ground?

Re: [asterisk-users] zaptel huge irq problem
Hi, I don't want multiple instances of Asterisk. My goal here is to make Asterisk and its Zaptel hardware run nice on a machine that is not dedicated and also hosts VM. I had lot's of problems with Xen, as the host runs a modified kernel that has apparently issues with the interrupt handling (at least). My question was more of what kind of hypervisor I should use for Asterisk/Zaptel not to have problems like it has in Xen. François.

If you do need multiple asterisk instances, verver or openvz might help you to give a separate container for that user's personal usage.

Re: [asterisk-users] zaptel huge irq problem
I will try VMWare then. Does it support AMD-V or Intel VT virtualization at processor level for speedup? If so, I guess there is at some point some kernel code (module like KVM or special kernel like Xen) that could provoke some similar problems with zaptel interrupts. Could there be some issues here or am I totally wrong again? François.

(of course, Asterisk will be realtime-niced to make it more important) Well, in particular anything that expects unfettered access to hardware (as most realtime applications which rely on interface cards do) is going to be vulnerable to the proclivities of the hypervisor. Virtualization is still mostly rocket science. I have no doubt that it is the future and one day everything will run in virtualized environments -- but we're still a bit away from that. Virtualization makes financial sense when you have 20 database servers running at 10% utilization; you can drop your hardware requirements by at least a third... but for systems relying on dedicated hardware, I would be very careful (again -- I speak from ugly experience here). -Stephen- ___ --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 -- _ François Delawarde Ingeniero de red Tel: 918.03.92.51 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _ WIRELESS MUNDI http://www.wirelessmundi.com/ C/Isaac Newton, 1 - Oficina 26 · Parque Tecnológico de Madrid 28760 TRES CANTOS (Madrid) Tlf./Fax: (+34) 918 03 92 51 La información contenida en este mensaje y en sus archivos adjuntos es CONFIDENCIAL y se dirige exclusivamente a sus destinatarios.

Re: [asterisk-users] zaptel huge irq problem
I don't really know of other virtualization technology other than Xen, and I thank you for guiding me through this, but I have a few doubts related to the choice of a virtualization technology in a host with Asterisk: - Isn't the fact that KVM is now included in the mainstream Linux kernel as of 2.6.20 a certain type of 'proof' that it could be stable enough compared to others (of course there could be licensing or other political/friendship issues)? - Even if the virtual guests aren't totally stable and 100% reliable yet, wouldn't the use of KVM be better with Zaptel compatible cards than Xen, in architecture point of vue, as it is only a kernel module that -as far as I know- don't appear to be changing fundamental issues like IRQ handling or I/O scheduling in the kernel, and from the fact that virtual machines are treated like simple processes?

Re: [asterisk-users] zaptel huge irq problem

Thanks Nico On Thu, 14 Sep 2006, Kai Militzer wrote: Hello everyone, since some weeks I experience strange problems on my gateways to the PSTN. The gateways use chan_ss7 and SIP. My setup is roughly like that SER -- Asterisk A -- Asterisk B (chan_ss7) -- PSTN What happens is, that after a while (uptime was a least two days) the gateway starts to not transmit audio to the PSTN on outgoing calls, but the caller can still hear the called party. There is no NAT involved and firewall rules allow the RTP ports defined in rtp.conf on both asterisk (A and B) machines. The SIP packages look good, no errors messages from asterisk or anything else, so I have really no idea what causes it and I cannot reproduce it except by waiting till it happens again. :( Now the strange thing is, that if I restart the asterisk all works fine again. A reload does not help, only a restart. Until now I came across this phenomenon two times on different machines and it all started about three weeks ago. Before that I ran asterisk 1.2.10 on the machines and then updated to 1.2.11. I looked through the Changelog but coulnd't find anything that seems related, but I guess it's a bug that was introduced somewhere between 1.2.10 and 1.2.11 ... Does anyone else have similar problems?

[asterisk-users] volume control in VoIP
Hi Is there a way to control volume in VoIP calls just like the gain parameters for ZAP lines? Thanks, François. ___ --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
Re: [asterisk-users] volume control in VoIP
Don't you think it could be an interesting feature in Asterisk? It already does transcoding, why not gain when voice flow passes through it? François. Eric ManxPower Wieling wrote: Yes.

[asterisk-users] dialplan logic based on caller ID
Hello! Is there any easy way to use the caller ID display info (CALLERID(name) in Asterisk) in dialplan just as we could use the number in: exten = _X./67803287, 1, action I have a SIP GSM device, and when a call comes in, it passes me the caller ID like so: -- Sip message Header: From: 67803287 sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED];tag=... -- Asterisk variables: CALLERID(num) = gsm CALLERID(name) = 67803287 I would like to make a logic based on the caller id, that would also work in the case of zap devices that set variables like: CALLERID(num) = 67803287 CALLERID(name) = Anyone has a clue (without having to complicate things too much)? Thank you, François. ___ --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] Analog FXO status checking
Hi all, I would like to make a script/program that would be able to show lots of status information from my analog FXO lines (and FXS lines in the near future). Example of interesting status information: - Hook status: is there a call being made with that zap? - Voltage status: cable connected, voltage values (if possible), line ringing? - RX/TX Volume status I'm using a TDM400 card with FXO modules plugged on spanish lines, and trying to parse zap show channel X with Asterisk 1.4.0 gives me unexpected results: - Hookstate (FXS only) line shows Onhook when cable is disconnected and Offhook when cable is connected, whether there is a phone call or not... Is it normal (with an FXO line)? Can someone explain me why? - The only way i found to know if the line is in use is to check the Echo Cancellation line which shows currently ON... Is there another way without having to parse core show channels concise? - No volume information, voltage status or anything. Would it be possible to check status of those lines (with voltage info, ...) making a program that would read information from /dev/zap/X character devices (ioctl?) without having to stop asterisk (/dev/zap/3: Device or resource busy when asterisk is running)? Thanks in advance for anyone that could help me! ___ --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
