Andy, no. No one has suggested using the lcr module, and I wasn't even aware of 
it until you mentioned it just now. I took a look at the module docs, they're 
way beyond my current understanding. it. I'll have to do some reading. Does it 
allow you to try another route when one is not responding?
 
Doug.

to be that it doesn't matter whether you use the dispatcher or SRV records to 
distribute load, OpenSER will never try to connect to anything else on failure 
and at least for us, that makes it use in a production system, not an option.
        
        I didn't follow the whole thread, so maybe this has been suggested
        before, but have you ever thought about using the lcr module for load
        balancing? In combination with failure routes for failover this works
        very well for me.
