[Asterisk-Users] Feedback from VON expo! Info on * HA andPolycomphone!!

[Douglas Garstang]

Peter,
 
Sorry, can't do inline replies with web based Outlook.
 
Yes, I know... I'd say that if the phone wasn't available between the period the server went down, and the time it re-reregistered, then it's not a HA solution.
 
I discussed with the people that make the decisions this evening, and having downtime like that is not an option. You'd also have no reliable BLF functionality as the subscribe and notify messages would be spread amongst multiple systems and just plain wouldn't work.
 
Can you imagine what sort of traffic, say even 1000 phones re-registering every minute would be like? That's SEVENTEEN new registrations per second.
 
Doug

	Assuming you're using regcontext/regexten, if a phone isn't found
	locally then a DUNDi switch will allow it to be found elsewhere -
	assuming it has re-registered. It will only be unavailable during the
	re-registration interval.
	
	You need to go and try this, not keep posting about how you think it
	won't work. Then we can help you get it going.
