Oh, yes. It is. I updated Documentation a few weeks ago, so that UG know points to the latest snapshots. add-smsc is in there.

Works like a charm. I also tested remove-smsc too.


Sorry I was looking in the UG I downloaded off the website. I have no idea if the add-smsc/remove-smsc is in the UG in trunk. I guess that is where I should have been looking.


Thanks again.Β

Add a new smsc in your configuration, while bb is running. Then, from the admin page choose:

add-smsc

Let me know how it works.

@Alvaro: As Nikos said. According to UG it is only the DLRs that are safe and my question is about queued SMS not DLR.


@Nikos. Thanks, it is in the configuration file already. There didn't appear to be a restart-smsc so I used so stop-smsc and start-smsc and that did the trick. Something else you said reminded me of a question I had been meaning to ask. If we wanted to add an SMSC to our configuration would it be possible to start that bind without having to restart the bearerbox. I attempted to add a new bind yesterday and use the start-smsc command but I kept getting could not restart smsc response from Kannel. I looked in the logs but didn't see any errors or warnings. I restarted Kannel and the bind connected straight away.

Not quite. Internal storage refers to dlr-storage. You can start bearerbox without *any* storage specified and that would do the trick, but that is extreme operation and asking for trouble.

@brett: Alvaro is mostly right, but there is still a chance of loosing 1-2 SMS, accepted by bb, before they are stored to filesystem. Your best bet would be to switch it first to isolated or suspended (don't remember which - check user's guide) wait a couple of minutes and then restart.

However, if your inactive SMSc is already in your configuration file, you can just go tyo http admin and choose "restart-smsc" without the need to restart bearerbox.

Nikos

If you do have setup kannel to store the messages on a file or store,
you wont loose any message. You will if you do use "internal storage"
that is held in RAM

Hi Users
We had a situation on Saturday where one of our SMSC experienced connection
difficulties with their ISP. When they came back 2 of the 3 binds were
re-established correctly. The 3rd bind reported being connected but all
messages to that bind were getting queued to the bearerbox. I looked at the
user guide for a way to drop and re-establish the connection without losing
all the SMS traffic in memory. I saw the restart but it didn't say if it
would destroy the in memory queue.
Is there a way to re-establish the connections without loosing the in memory
queues? Will the restart command do that?
