RI-----NODEBUG-----0---------------") in new stack

its frequent while on call. can anyone annlysis this output..

loadavg when this happens?

are you recording all calls?

are you recording to tmpfs or directly to a hard drive?

are you using SIP trunks?

if so what kind of bandwidth do you have?

hi mflorell:

Yes im recording all calls.

im recording directly to the hard drive and what is tmpfs...?

im USing SIP trunk- VOIP softphones...

My bandwitdth is E1 2Mbps..


and what is loadavg.....?

Looks like you have much to learn.

Google is our friend. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TMPFS [dot removed for posterity]

tmpfs is a common name for a temporary file storage facility on many Unix-like operating systems. It is intended to appear as a mounted file system, but one which uses virtual memory instead of a persistent storage device.

You can also check what load average is on Google.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TMPFS. no information about tmpfs

remove the .

I also get that error too but I dont really mind it though.

you could also run that recording in a ramdisk and dump it when convenient

with that number of users and calls with recording ... you may want to move your sql (and possibly other services, like web) onto another server to reduce the load on this server.

how many processors do you have?

top will give server load information, as will uptime and several other cli commands.

i like htop (but you generally have to apt-get install htop or emerge htop before you can use it)

hi my server is IBM X3200 series with Xeon dual core processor running 4GB memory problem is i got 250 Gb SATA drive ( which im considering it to use SCSI or SAS with faster rpm) and also i have two server on deploy 1 WEB/DATABASE server and the other one is mainly Asterisk SERVER.

And also if i may add how do i set my server to be a fault tolerant or or for failover purpose... based on HArdware and software consideration..anyone have idea or suggestions.

tolerant of what fault? dead hard drive? carrier failure? agent walked away from his phone? asterisk crash? mysql table corruption?

WILLIAMCONLEY..probably all you mentions are what i mean

One at a time. Each fault has the ability to have a "tolerance" or "failover" added in. RAID, programming for alternate carrier, marrying someone with lots of money ... there is no "pill" for fault providence.

As far as *I* know, the ONLY true pure fault tolerance is to host your server at a provider that will guarantee uptime and total backup and also provides guaranteed uptime sip channels. But you need to bring your checkbook. Gold-plated.
