Hi Bogdan, That's what I said: "We'd like to put a keepalived in front of both OpenSIPS servers". keepalived is VRRP. My question is you'll still have just one keepalived server monitoring the systems. I'm trying to understand what others do here. We have for this customer: DC1: OpenSIPS <-> Asterisk...Asterisk...Asterisk DC2: OpenSIPS <-> Asterisk...Asterisk...Asterisk What do others put in front to switch between the two datacenters but still avoiding having one keepalived/heartbeat server inbetween these two DCs? Do you address this by having a few heartbeat/keepalived servers that get returned for the DNS records, for example: sip.mycustomer.com returns a keepalived IP that is running in each datacentre whereby each VRRP server points to both DCs. Then if anyone one goes down its points to the other? Thanks, Gavin. -- http://www.suretecsystems.com/services/openldap/ http://www.suretectelecom.com _______________________________________________ Users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.opensips.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/users
