[asterisk-users] How often to restart Asterisk...

[Kevin Larsen]

Had my Asterisk instance stop responding to incoming/outgoing calls today. 
Had to kill -9 the asterisk process and restart it to get it back. Not 
really looking for help on that as the instance is version 1.6 and is due 
to be replaced with an upgraded version shortly.

However, this does make me wonder, do you restart periodically to try to 
avoid issues or do you just let things run until there is a problem? This 
box had 119 days of up time on the Asterisk process. I have a client that 
I installed an Elastix instance on and the last time I checked it, it was 
up to almost 500 days of up time without an asterisk restart.
