Hi List, I'm finding a solution to provide failover and load balancing features to my IVR system. Anyone suggest me what is the best solution please?. what the hardware I should use ?. I heard about RedFone, but someone on the mail list said that it is not good because TDMoE module in asterisk is not so stable and TDMoE is stale. And It seems that RedFone doesn't not support load balancing ability (I can't find any document about this feature). Best Regards, Giang Huu. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/attachments/20100326/2a912ed2/attachment.htm

[asterisk-users] Asterisk load balancing and failover
About two years ago I setup two high availability solutions using DRBD and Heartbeat. The worked great and shutting down or unplugging one server stayed transparent for the callers, as IVRs stayed available. Having said this, it was not very straight forward to set it up, but not very difficut either. So Heartbeat and DRBD can be a good starting point for you. -- Zeeshan A Zakaria On 2010-03-26 4:40 AM, "huu giang" <huugiang104 at yahoo.com> wrote: Hi List, I'm finding a solution to provide failover and load balancing features to my IVR system.

Unfortunately not. DRBD and Heartbeat solution is good for pure VoIP.

If I have two Asterisk Servers, and each server has a TDM card and a PRI line connect to each card, how your solution can provide failover ability to Asterisk ? Do you need any other hardware? The calles to my IVR System don't just come from IP network (SIP) but can come from SS7 network.

I have 1 PRI and 1 E&M Wink Circuit. If I call a non working number and route it through the PRI, I get the following: <Ringing>...."You have reached a non-working number....." If I call a non working number and route it through the E&M Wink Circuit, I get the following: <NO RINGING... DEAD AIR> A core show channels shows the state as ringing...

Do you need any other hardware?Have a look at this article and how they shared a single T1 line across two servers for failover: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/7661 (sorry about the missing in-reply-to header.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk load balancing and failover
Hi, Good to know this but I am not the poster of this question and not doing any load balancing. Zeeshan A Zakaria -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.

I guess you have two point codes for you servers? If one server goes down, the ss7 switch received the red alarms and stops to route calls to it. Once the server is up again it will get new calls. So, we only thing you have to worry about is to keep state information between the two servers consistent if people record messages or access databases.
