Hello All, My asterisk installation has now been running for over two months without a hitch, and I've decided it's time to move things around a bit. It's currently installed on a 2.7GHz Celeron under RH9 installed on a 10GB "leftover" drive. Thanks to the strange marketing method called "Mail-In-Rebate", I have a fresh 160GB drive ($50), and I'm itching to install a GenToo Linux distro. I also have a 1.2ish GHz Duron with Mobo sitting around here, which may just be enough to power my (barely ever transcoding) asterisk install. Should be enough, even if one channel were transcoded occasionally, no? Let's say I start with a fresh machine, GenToo (2.4 Kernel), and a recent Asterisk (which one? I'm running HEAD from 05/02/2004 right now, heavy on SIP, no problems), and move one of my two X100P for the timing source... Would it be enough to copy over the Asterisk config and VM files? (yes, yes, they'll share IP addresses, so I don't have to reconfigure my devices) So... 1) 1.2Ghz Duron, enough for transacoding a single channel? 2) X100P sufficient timing device for *? 3) Which * source does the list recommend? 4) \var\lib\asterisk, \etc\asterisk and zaptel.conf are all that's needed to migrate the current state of *? TIA!
1) should be more than enuf for 1 channel. I use a P2 400 here for testing and it worked ok for transcoding besides the schedule notices. 2) Depending how much timing you need to do X100P or ztdummy could even work just fine. 3. -head 4. i'd rebuild it from src and just copy your configs and any of your stored VM On Wed, 1 Sep 2004 14:39:12 -0500, Jay Milk <jay@skimmilk.net> wrote:> Hello All, > > My asterisk installation has now been running for over two months > without a hitch, and I've decided it's time to move things around a bit. > It's currently installed on a 2.7GHz Celeron under RH9 installed on a > 10GB "leftover" drive.

Works just peachy. The max I've ever done is 6 channels before I started having some dropouts in audio. So a Duron 1.2 Ghz should do just fine. ;)> Let's say I start with a fresh machine, GenToo (2.4 Kernel), and a > recent Asterisk (which one?
