Load balance setup

[bobbymc]

i added the iax trunks and setup both servers to be able to talkt o eachother and setup the load balance extensions.. where do i go from here? what is the vdad extension i have to setup in a campaign.. how does this exacly work? formw hat i understand is that i have to register half the people on one server and the other on the next server.. but where do i set the settigns to send the calls to the second server? i think vicidial_server_trunks is the table i modify.. but please direct me to the right place or what i need to do exacly..

First, read and reread the LOAD_BALANCE document.

Then make sure the servers are set to do balance dialing and that your VDAD exten is set to 8368.

What version of astguiclient are you using?

i got the load balancing to work.. what is the difference between MAXIMUM_LIMIT and OVERFLOW_ALLOWED ?

You are referring to campaign trunk reservations which can involve load balancing but is not specifically tied to it.

MAXIMUM LIMIT will not allow the campaign to use any more trunks on that server than the number specified, but that campaign will have those trunks reserved just for it's use.

OVERFLOW ALLOWED will allow the campaign to run over that amount if it needs too, but that number of trunks will be guaranteed to be available for that campaign on that server only.
