I have a friend who has been having an intermittent problem with his nice, shiny new IBM x226 server. It's a Xeon processor, 1.5Gb RAM, hardware RAID controller running CentOS 3 The system will will sometimes run for a couple of weeks, then simply lock up -- nothing on the console, no response to pings, no "caps-lock" lights, no kernel panic indicators, nothing in the logs to

Hi, I have an IBM xSeries server... and the digium card is sharing IRQ with USB and giving me crackling audio. >>> cat /proc/interrupts >>> >>> It brings up these results: >>> 0: 10566547 IO-APIC-edge timer >>> 1: 9 IO-APIC-edge i8042 >>> 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade >>> 8: 1

I have a Dell SC440 with Centos and Asterisk 1.4.21 and a card openvox D110PG, T1, when a person calling from the PTSN will listen to them but then begins to distort the voice I heard that name. I probe the card in another computer and it works perfectly. Anyone has any idea or help. I'm going crazy with this problem. Install Debian on this server and the same thing happened to me. I bought

Hello, Digium uses the Dell PE 2850 for their testing. This site says that 3.3V PCI slot. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+hardware We are planning on purchasing a Dell PE 2850 and putting a TE205P card on it. However, the needs a 5V PCI slot. Does Dell PE 2850 has a 5V PCI slot? A person in our group tried to call Dell's customer support but they do not seem to know.

Hi All, I recently got some IBM Xseries 335 servers 2nd hand, and noticed they don't have any graphics card. Some google searched indicate they only have an uplink port, which you could connect to another (other model) IBM server and use that as the head node. But, I don't have one available. It has 2x GB NIC's, and what looks like a management port, but I can't figure out how to

Hi There, Can someone have a look at the specs of this server, found here: http://www-8.ibm.com/servers/eserver/nz/xseries/x366/specs.html and let me know if this is a VT-enabled server? The outline lists this server as having: Intel Xeon Processor MP up to 3.66GHz (single-core) and 3.00GHz (dual-core)/667MHz front-side bus, both support Intel Extended Memory 64 Technology. Thanks Simon

ok now i bought an IBM xSeries 206 but my problem is the hard drive can't be detected.

Does anyone recommend any particular SAS controller, or should I use an Ultra-320 SCSI controller instead? My machine is an IBM xSeries 306m. It has a SAS controller provided on a daughter card, but it''s not supported in the 2.6.16 kernel, so I''m looking for a separate disk controller card that will work with my existing SAS disks. -- James Holmes Programmer/SysAdmin RTDS

Hi , I have setup xen on a number of different machines already; however, I couldn''t get xSeries 330 working with Xen. When it boots up, it says "Waiting for device /dev/sda1 .... device not found" and then return a shell prompt. I have looked up this error on the mailing list. I found that the error is potentially caused SCSI driver and it can be resolved this problem by

Hi all, I've setup a PBX in production environment last week but we have immediatly find out drop conversations and lot of errors (in asterisk logs) like: Apr 10 17:30:48 NOTICE[25154] chan_zap.c: PRI got event: HDLC Bad FCS (8) on Primary D-channel of span 2 My configuration is: Motherboard: SuperMicro P8SCT (Intel E7221 chipset) Hypertrading and APIC enabled CPU: P4 3GHz Digium TE205P

Hello: I have an odd problem with an IBM EServer XSeries 305 (aka x305). Sometimes it seems to just sit there, completely unresponsive to the command line (ssh and console), for several seconds. Other times it works normally. top will sometimes die with a floating point error while waiting for it to start. When top does work, it often shows a system load of 0.5, with high interrupt load. At

I have recently installed Asterisk Now Beta 4 (32-bit) with three Digium cards - 2 Wildcards TE400P (one with 4 FXS modules and one with 4 FXO modules) and a TE205P dual E1/T1 card. The problem is with the TE205P and configuring the /etc/zaptel.conf and /etc/asterisk/zapata.conf files. I go in and add the required lines to configure the TE205P and restart Asterisk. All is fine until I reboot the

What cpu/memmory configurations have people had good luck with for a small office asterisk server... (polycom's/poe linksys) Dell's got their $200 SC440 going again until the 12th... and I'm thinking it might be just the ticket...

I hope the CentOS people don't mind me cross-posting for their input. I've just done a clean, text-mode minimal WBEL4 install on an IBM Netfinity 4500, essentially the same hardware as an xSeries 340. The install went fine but now the box will boot, run through the initrd init sequence, perform its switchroot then hang here... SELinux: Initializing. SELinux: Starting in permissive mode

Hi all. I have a Dell SC440 running Centos 4.4. It has two 500GB disks in a RAID1 array using linux software raid (md1 is / and md0 is /boot). Recently the root file system was remounted read-only for some reason. The logs don't show anything unusual, presumably the file system was read-only before anythng was logged. Running dmesg showed this error repeated many times: EXT3-fs error (device

I need to install CentOS 5.2 on a IBM Server xSeries 226, which comes with a IBM SERVERAID 6i RAID card. I think it is not a true hardware RAID card. I has, nevertheless, an interesting feature: 128MB of cache with battery backup. I launched the CentOS boot DVD and CentOS correctly identified the card and the RAID 5 array as configured by the controller's BIOS. My question now is:

Trying to find my feet here. If I wanted to connect Asterisk to a PRI and throw in a T1 Adtran channel bank into the mix for fax machines would the following work? Connect PRI line from telco to Port 1 on the Digium Wildcard TE205P. Connect Adtran TA-624-T1 to Post 2 on the Digium Wildcard TE205P also, would I need a crossover to the channelbank or is it a patch lead like the connection to the
