asterisk users - Oct 2008 - How to launch batch whenever Asterisk (re)start ?

Hi,

Using Asterisk 1.4, I would like to send a couple of SIP notifies or various
scripts whenever Asterisk restart.
My concern is also deal with restart from CLI but I don't how Asterisk is
restarted when using CLI.

Is safe_asterisk used ?
What is the best way to do ?

Regards

I would suggest rc.local and forget init scripts.  Safe_asterisk is
useful, but I call that from rc.local.

You could use #exec statements in one of your config-files. This would 
mean that they would be run on every reload. As you asked about running 
at every restart, not reload, you would have to check if it is indeed a 
restart. This could possibly be done by checking the uptime with 
"asterisk -rx 'show uptime'", and then parse this to see if it
is quite
low, meaning it would be a restart...

What do you really want to know? That chan_sip.so got loaded?

The only sane way I can think of right now to do that is a log watcher.
If you're using rsyslog or syslog-ng and you send asterisk messages to
syslog, maybe implementing this on your own shouldn't be a problem.
