This is what i have cronned atm. I found Asterisk with 5 days uptime. The behaviour i saw was issuing another 'core restart when convenient' resulting in the 'Ignoring asterisk restart request, already in progress.'-message, but issuing 'core restart now' did have effect, though, as you stated, after a short delay of about 15 seconds. I have some pointers on where to look next. It was totally unclear to me that modules 'get asked to shut down' and might not feel like doing so at particular moments. I figured it was all about active channels.

Tell all channels to hang up, and wait up to 15 seconds for all channels to go away. Don't allow new channels to be made. After 15 seconds, shut down anyway. Clean up of resources in modules is "best effort" - don't wait for anything to get written or otherwise dispose of itself. * gracefully - tell all CDRs to go submit themselves. Wait until all channels have hung up, but don't hang them up. Don't allow new channels to be made. Once all channels have hung up, ask all of the modules to clean up after themselves - including waiting for CDRs to get written. * convenient - wait until all channels have hung up. If no channels are made, keep waiting. Once all channels have hung up, and no new channels are made, sneak in and ask all of the modules shut down and to clean up after themselves - including waiting for all CDRs to get written. Note that while one shutdown command is executing, another cannot be started. Thus, if you issue a 'core stop gracefully' and decide later to escalate it to 'core stop now', by default, Asterisk will refuse the 'core stop now' command. You can, however, stop the 'core stop gracefully' by issuing 'core abort shutdown', which will cause Asterisk to stop the existing shutdown attempt and return to normal processing. You can then issue another shutdown command at your leisure. -- Matthew Jordan Digium, Inc. | Engineering Manager 445 Jan Davis Drive NW - Huntsville, AL 35806 - USA Check us out at: http://digium.com & http://asterisk.org -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

I tested the above and "when convenient" is similar to "gracefully." The difference is that the latter stops new calls from coming in. The former allows new calls to start while waiting for old calls to finish. What does "core show channels" show while waiting for it to restart? -- D'Arcy J.M.

I run 11.7 and use this: asterisk -x 'core stop gracefully' That waits until all phones are on hook before stopping. No need to run tests that would be subject to race conditions. However, I don't believe that any of this answers the OP's question. He says that he is running "restart when convenient" but I don't believe there is any such command and he probably means what I said above. perhaps he can clarify but I think that his question is, "Why does it think that there are calls in progress when there are not."

[asterisk-users] 'restart when convenient'
Hi, I want to do a scripted 'restart when convenient' on a daily basis. This used to work, but since i've upgraded to Asterisk 11.7 it seems it's never convenient to restart the server. My question: how can i tell *why* it's not convenient to restart the server? It used to be some colleague left the receiver OffHook or something like that, but even when i'm fairly certain there's no activity on my pbx, all receivers are OnHook, Asterisk won't restart. How can i debug why Asterisk thinks it isn't convenient to restart? Thanks! -Sander. -- | Hey.. I'm done talkin'.
