[asterisk-users] device probe order question

2008-09-18 Thread Jason T. Nelson
I have an Ubuntu 8 server running Asterisk 1.4 with three interface cards in
it:

* Wildcard TDM400P
* Wildcard TDM410P
* Wildcard TE122

I'm using zaptel 1.4.11, and the difficulty I'm running into is that
with EVERY reboot, the order in which the hardware appears changes. This
makes ztscan cough up a different order for the spans, which makes it nearly
impossible to use the Digium GUI as after reboots, it complains that the
hardware has changed. Is there a way to lock down probe order on boot, or
somehow write zaptel.conf in such a way that port and span assignments never
change between reboots?

Those cards use each a different driver. Write those driver, in your
preffered order, in /etc/modules .

Ah, I should have mentioned I did that (snippit from /etc/modules below)

zaptel
wcte12xp
wctdm

Having this doesn't seem to affect things.

'zaptel' is not really necessary . You don't have wctdm24xxp there.

Hello,

We had the same problem in the past and the last idea I had was to remove
first the modules and load them (using /etc/rc.local) in the right order.
Like:

rmmod wcte11xp
rmmod wctdm
modprobe wcte11xp
modprobe wctdm
modprobe zaptel

Maybe not the best way to do the job but it works for us.

HTH,
Ioan.

That is how I do it as well but don't forget /usr/sbin/asterisk or you
will just have a bunch of loaded modules.

I never bother with init scripts or /etc/modules.  rc.local all the
way and I once challenged the list to give me a reason why that is NOT
a good way.  No replies...

Thanks,
Steve Totaro

Also remeber that using init scripts gives the posibility of running 
those same scripts to stop the services in reverse order when you 
shutdown a machine.  If you simply start programs in rc.local, when you 
shutdown the machine it won't stop your programs elegantly.  (for 
example, just look inside /etc/rc3.d and you will see all the start 
scripts 'S' which run when you bootup the machine and the kill scripts 
'K' which run when you shutdown the machine).
