Hello Zeeshan,<br>How about doing the mixture of what I want to do with your strategy. I mean, what if we have 3 asterisk servers with distributed registrations and also have heartbeat installed monitoring all the servers? will that work?<br>

<p>How about setting up a high availability cluster using DRBD and Heartbeat? There is some good info on it on the Internet. In this type of setup you have two exact same servers running in parallel, and only one has the required services up. They keep themselves in sync. When the primary one goes down, the secondary instantly takes over. Active calls are though dropped, but after that everything is back to normal. There are various other options regarding which server will stay primary, or how and which services will be used on which server.</p>
<p>Another option I am exploring is using the same thing but in Proxmox with DRBD. Somebody told me it could be setup so that even the active calls are not dropped. I haven't set it up yet, but will try it when get time.<br>

late to switch to Kamailio. I mean we have developed our pbx with call features

second post, but I have a Polycom 501 registered to 3 servers. I hit the line

this is useful.</span></font></p>
