Hello Björn,

Thanks for the update. This sounds indeed a like a somewhat ugly hack. 😉
It should be probably fixed in the code instead of manually creating KDMQ 
messages to update the dialog module state in the cfg.

Cheers,

Henning

Subject: [SR-Users] Re: Failover with dialog dmq while dialog state 2

Hi Henning,

thank you for your reply. I did a lot testings during the past days and I think 
I found a solution that is working, although it's very dirty...

I found out it is possible to send a manual KDMQ-Message to all Proxy-Nodes 
including the one that it sending die KDMQ-Message. So I create a dialog state 
4 message on ACK and indeed the Dialog on all Peers are Updated correctly to 
state 4. I also tried this for state 3 on 200 OK, but this does not work. I 
haven't had a look into the code yet but my experiments shows, that there is 
never is state 3 update via DMQ, so I think it's not implemented.

Interestingly the TM-Timer still times out after 300 seconds but in normal 
circumstances this doesn't bother, because either the failed Kamailio will not 
trigger this, because the Software or the Server crashed, or it tries to send a 
CANCEL that is denied because we are in dialog state 4.

The only thing is your really have to be careful about your hash tables. You 
have to delete them at the correct point.

I really need to test a lot at this point, but till now, billing seems to be OK 
even on failover scenarios.

This is why I really like Kamailio :)

BR, Björn

Hello,



thanks for the detailed e-mail. As also indicated in the module documentation, 
the dialog module DMQ replication will not replicate everything, its main 
use-case is for profile data sharing. 
https://kamailio.org/docs/modules/5.8.x/modules/dialog.html#dialog.p.enable_dmq



In the past months there have been some other discussions on the users lists 
about similar scenarios (I think related to billing/accounting) and dialog with 
DMQ, which might be interesting for you in this regard.



If you find issues where the DMQ synchronisation is lacking some functionality 
in the dialog module, you can create a feature request in our issue tracker. 
There is of course no guarantee that this limitation is also timely addressed.



Regarding the INVITE and CANCEL scenario, this is usually not related to dialog 
but to the tm module. As you also mentioned, there is no replication of 
transaction state in tm.



Cheers,



Henning
