Re: rtprio + su - doesn't work
tu run (at startup) asterisk PBX as user centrala with realtime priority. asterisk is started, but without realtime priority. Yes, you'd be running the su process with realtime priority. :-) and su forks shell and asterisk - isn't it? how to do this right? i run asterisk as user (not root), but this server is used to other things, so asterisk must have absolute priority over other things. now i have to do this manually by searching for asterisk's PID and doing rtprio 31 -PID Well, you have to run rtprio as root, or else make it setuid-root (which probably isn't a great idea). Presumably this thing has a startup script which runs it, and it probably creates a PID file under /var/run which you could use to adjust the priority during system startup via: rtprio 31 -`cat /var/run/asterix.pid` did this /usr/bin/su centrala -c \ /usr/local/sbin/asterisk -C /centrala/etc/asterisk.conf /bin/sleep 5 /usr/sbin/rtprio 31 -`cat /centrala/run/asterisk.pid` works fine, but looks like workaround for me not proper solution? am i wrong? thank you for explanation why it doesn't work directly Wojtek ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

People who need hard realtime tend to use more specialized systems and hardware designed for realtime tasks (ie, bounded interrupt service times and the like)... -- -Chuck ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
