asterisk users - Jul 2005 - Asterisk with Intel Blade Machine...

Hello,

I would like to use Intel Blade machine for running Asterisk. Is there
anyone who already use Intel Blade server for running Asterisk? Can you
please explain, how perform Asterisk with Intel Blade machine?

 

I would appreciate for giving me feedback regarding this issue.

 

Regards

Nahid

We've had Asterisk running on a blade for some time. Blades as 
such can be used but with a couple of restrictions:
- There's probably no room for PCI cards, so no zap hardware
- Check the kind of USB supported on the board (UHCI vs OHCI, 
  for ztdummy support, see wiki)

For some reasons we've moved away (non blade related) from the 
blades, but not because blades don't work. We really liked them.

Yes, true, but this entirely depends on how the blade is set up. We 
had no control over the distro installed on the blade.
