Matthew,

Both on the list and in #asterisk there have been several discussions
about HA solutions. Afaik to this day people continue to try to find the
HA answers and those with the answers, if they exist at all, don't seem
interested in sharing them (publicly). In their defense, a well working
HA setup would be a nice differentiator in terms of service reliability
and availability so I can't really blame them. What is mentioned quite
often is using two (Open)SER boxes as a frontend and two Asterisk boxes
at the backend.

OT: I would be most interested in the contact details from the IBM
guy(s) that demo'd their Asterisk HA/Blade system. Anyone have those?

Regards,
Patrick
