Use a second Asterisk system on a stronger machine (or several Asterisk
systems on several machines). You know how to program Asterisk, right?

There are many ways to do that, and it really depends on what you want
to check.

If you used call files, remember to delete everything from the outgoing
directory before retarting... . Also note that if Asterisk was running
with -p, you may not not be able to run that command from anywhere - the
