The two or more servers have individual IP addresses and running heartbeat creates a clustered IP address. The active server uses the cluster IP address. If the active server should fail then the cluster IP address moves to another server. Each handset and peer uses the clustered IP address to communicate to the server. This way all devices only communicate to a single server and you don’t have the problem of having different devices connected to different servers.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>I have created a Wiki page based on this which may help you. <a href="http://www.klaverstyn.com.au/david/wiki/index.php?title=Cluster">http://www.klaverstyn.com.au/david/wiki/index.php?title=Cluster</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>The wiki mentions a script file to copy files between servers to keep the data consistent.

I mean, if today user with extension 101 is registered on server1, and tomorrow he will register with server2 - how would any of servers know where to route it?<o:p></o:p></p><p>As some examples, if I have only 2 servers, things are not so bad. I can use Dial(SIP/101&SIP/server2/101) on server1 and vice versa. OR, I can check the hungup code, and if it's 34 (or whatever I get when I try to dial unavailable peer) - try it on another server.<o:p></o:p></p><p>But I guess things get tricky when you have 3 or more servers, and besides maybe this solution is not the best one.
