[asterisk-users] Asterisk Redundancy

[Dan Journo]

Thanks, I didn't know you could do that.

I thought I had to do.... Dial(SIP/astbox1/${EXTEN}&SIP/astbox2/${EXTEN})

Hi,

Sorry, I replied to the wrong email.

Heres the question....

If I set up two servers for load balancing and redundancy, how do I program the dial plan for internal calls? Bearing in mind that some internal users will be registered to server A, and some registered to server B?

Many thanks
Dan

Get a "Host" that has redundant power supplies.  Was it the power
supply in the server or a phase?

Even an HP DL360 has redundant power supplies, you just yank out the
bad one and put a new one in, no downtime.

If it is power in the building, then maybe you should move your system
to a better "Host" that has different phases and plug your server into
both, via dual power supply, like the DL360.

All of my servers at Equinix are plugged into two different "Power Sources".

You can also use HA Linux (Heartbeat) in case a box dies.

Thanks,
Steve T
