[asterisk-users] Asterisk semi-hangs

[Carles Pina i Estany]

Hello,

(Note: again, I'm asking for experiences/suggestions, because
we have a problem in some environment that it's quite difficult to
debug, test, etc.)

I have seen, during last year, that some Asterisk has hangup up. I mean,
not crashing, we could access to Asterisk console, but phones couldn't
call. Doing "dial xxxx at context" was not doing/showing anything, even
with verbose setted up as 99. This was in Asterisk 1.2

Now, in a couple of Asterisk 1.4 boxes (I think that Asterisk
1.4.19.2?), this has happened again. Not often, every some months maybe,
etc. One installation is only using VoIP, so I don't think that it's a
Zaptel, Misdn, etc. problem.

Even typing "stop now" nothing is happening, killall asterisk either,
only killall -9 asterisk. 

We use a standard installation (no extra modules, etc.)

Debian distribution, our Kernel.

Has anyone some experience like this? Anything to tune? or something
to see? (logs doesn't say a lot, and hard disk is not full :-) )

We would like to avoid that this is happening again, understand why is
happening, etc.

Thank you,
