None.

I configure Asterisk to log everything to syslog on a central loghost. All 
of the AGIs connect to a separate (MySQL) database server to read call 
setup information and keep call state. All CDRs are written to the 
database.

When we need to take a host out of production, we update OpenSER's 
dispatcher to stop sending calls to the host. When there are no calls 
left, we update the OS and Asterisk.

Thanks in advance,
