similar to: replace astdb with a cluster-capable sql database engine

unix-odbc with Asterisk Realtime is one good way to use a different backend DB than MySQL. I haven't heard of "bit rot" problems running it over long times, but I'd like to if there are any. I'm particularly interested in seeing reports of Asterisk Realtime backed by Postgres. The problem with pointing dialplan DB functions like Set(DB) at unix-odbc (or any relational

Hi listers, We want to implement one call center with asterisk. The idea is it should be scalable, with openser as an dispatcher and bunch of asterisk servers to do ACD, Queues, Agents things... Easy to say :( Look closely to the current asterisk, we do see some problem: - SIP registrations was stored in astdb. - And queue members also was stored in astdb. - ... asterisk was built as

Does anyone know enough about the implementation of AstDB to know whether the data structure is a Hash function, a Balanced-Tree, a b-Tree, or a Linked List? I'm trying to estimate the lookup 'cost' of a AstDB with around 160,000 keys? Obviously I already know that it WILL WORK, but the question is whether the data structure is optimal in the Berkeley DB AS IMPLEMENTED in Asterisk.

Is it possible to delete the keys belonging to a family in AstDB at Asterisk startup? I would like to repopulate it from another source each time Asterisk is restarted. I know there is a DBdeltree(<family>) function. Is there a context that only runs once (automatically) at Asterisk startup (so that I can call this function)? Also is AstDB lookup faster than a func_odbc lookup? Is there a

Hi All, I'm looking for a way to filter the AstDB cidname family to show only those entries with a specified area code in the Asterisk CLI. If this were a SQL database it would be something like: SELECT number, name FROM cidname WHERE number LIKE '1234%' I've tried "database show cidname 1234*" and substituted "%", "$", "-" for the wildcard

Hi, On Lenny, I typed "apt-get install db4.5-util " then (as root) : # db4.5_dump /var/lib/asterisk/astdb db4.5_dump: /var/lib/asterisk/astdb: unexpected file type or format db4.5_dump: open: /var/lib/asterisk/astdb: Invalid argument # file /var/lib/asterisk/astdb /var/lib/asterisk/astdb: Berkeley DB 1.85/1.86 (Btree, version 3, native byte-order) Is db4.5_dump appropriate to dump an

All; I have a question regarding the Astdb. When reading more than a few values, it can take quite a while to grab several values in the astdb using say, asterisk -rx "database show" > output.txt and work with that and then set a new value such as asterisk -rx "database put $key $value". The whole process can take over 1 second for EACH ENTRY which adds up for more than a

Hi, Asterisk database is made of <family><key> records such as: fam key1 val1 fam key2 val2 ... fam key100 val100 I'm looking for the smartest way to iterate among different keys associated to a given family. One way to do this is to parse "database show fam" response. Is there something smarter ? Something like ${DBKEYS(fam)} which would evaluate to "key1

Hi I'm trying to use Asterisk running as non-root user and selinux enabled. Asterisk is running ok, but astdb not works. When i try to put in astdb, console shows this message: WARNING[1853]: db.c:350 ast_db_put: Couldn't execute statment: SQL logic error or missing database CentOS 7.5.1804 Asterisk certified/13.21-cert3 [root at sv03 asterisk]# ls -lahZ /var/lib/asterisk/astdb.sqlite3

I set up a call forwarding script in extensions.conf which uses the AstDB but I'm wondering if I reboot the server, will the entry in AstDB still reside? What the script does is when a call comes in, it check to see if there is a null value or a call forward number. If null, it will call the local office connections. If there is a number, it calls that. Now I just need to know if I reboot

Is anyone out there using app_dbodbc (http://www.bkw.org/~brian/app_dbodbc.c)? Any problems with it? I was able to get it all working, but it causes * to segfault every now and then. It does not appear to be related to any specific function (ODBCget,ODBCput,ODBCdel,ODBCdelltree). It is 100% repeatable. If I noload the module, everything works fine, but when its running, after calls to any of the

I need clarification on couple of issues of Realtime Queue. It seems that when Agents(Memebers) are added using AddQueueMember, Asterisk puts this Queue-Member relationship information into AstDB, So that on asterisk restart this can be preserved. My question is, why does asterisk not store call information for Queue (holdtime, talktime, W, C, A, SL%) in AstDB, So that it can also be retained

I'm wondering if there is any command-line interface available for working with values stored in astdb. Of course, I can run "asterisk -rx "database show" " or other commands like that, but I was hoping for a local command that would allow manipulation or output in some other form. Is astdb in a standard db format? JT

Using svn trunk, I was trying to see what the astdb entry in the sip.conf file does. Nothing :) I presume that it's meant to create an entry in the astdb. so, I have astdb=chan2ext/SIP/grandstream1=1234 in sip.conf But database show only gives *CLI> database show /SIP/Registry/706 : 192.168.0.200:5060:3600:706:sip:706@192.168.0.200:5060

Hello, I'm trying to fill CID data into the astdb using AsteriskWin32's asterisk.exe, to no avail: The batch file stops after the first line, and just waits: ---------------------------------------- rem c:\cygroot\mystuff>import.bat rem rem c:\cygroot\mystuff>C:\cygroot\bin\asterisk.exe -rx 'database put cidname 123 "My cellphone"' rem rem Asterisk module

Hi, all What is the use of astdb? Is it used to store realtime values like sip etc. Regards, Bhrugu Mehta -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/attachments/20100127/b13d6a62/attachment.htm

Is anyone aware of a way to replicate parts of the AstDB to another Asterisk install? For example, to export all CF entries on a FreePBX based system to another system running FreePBX, I might do: asterisk -rx 'database show' | grep CF This gives me a list of data, which I can rsync to another host to reimport using 'database put'. BUT, the problem comes in when I want to sync

Hi all, Could someone please tell me what is the relative "cost" in using conf files oppose to the astdb? Basically I need to match a name to a phone number in order to have all users registered by name and not by number (which I understood is not a good practice). I have 2000 users and a complex dial-plan and server resources become an issue. I could implement this via a context in my

Hello everybody, I am not using astdb (no func_db and app_db) so I am wondering why asterisk is always updating it. The interval of the update is not constant. Using lsof, I noted the intervals are somewhere between 1 minute to 12 minutes. The output of lsof says that asterisk, atd and crond processes were just active, just after the hard disk changed the state from standby to active/idle. I

Hi All, I need to use partial matches on the CIDNAME family I have stored in AstDB. For example, an organisation might have several numbers with the same area code and the same first few digits: 1234 567890 1234 567889 1234 567824 ... I'd like to store these (e.g.) as CIDNAME/12345678* (where "*" is a wildcard) so that I can retrieve the organisation name from
