[Asterisk-Users] stop asterisk when Idle

[asterisk at frameweb.it]

Yes you are right;
I was considering       asterisk -rx "stop when convenient" (remember I
have to shutdown the box).

But the poit is: I don't know what exactly this command does !!
Does it stop accepting new calls ? If it is right, then I can stay for
several hours (let's say I have 100 calls running, and one of them will
continue for 5 hours)
for 5 hours no one will be able to place a new call ?
If, on the other side, asterisk continue accepting incoming call, how can I
be sure that I wll reach a "convenient" moment ?

So this is not the solution for me

I think that I will issue a asterisk -rx "stop now", then I will check for
the pidof asterisk and when I will not found
it anymore I will reboot the pc. Of course, running calls will be
dropped....

But I found some situations that, after several millions of calls seconds,
need to reboot the box and not only restart asterisk.

thank you,
Andrea

How about a cron job that does:

asterisk -rx "restart when convenient"

 I do this sometimes and does the trick.

|Is there a way to detect (via batch) if asterisk is idle i.e.
|is there no active channels ? (oh323 show channels via console)
|
|I need to reboot every day an asterisk box, but I would like
|to do that only when asterisk is not doing anything.
|
|So I would like to schedule a batch at a given time that,
|before rebooting the system, checks if é* is idle.
|
|Is it possible to do that ? Or does it exist another way ?
|
|thanks in advance,
