[asterisk-users] Asterisk Capacity

2012-07-17 Thread Kannan
Hi List,

I am looking at configuring Asterisk as a SIP server fronted with SER SIP
Registrar in a single hardware. If you look at the Asterisk, on one side it
handles SIP clients and on the other side it connects to a PSTN gateway
over SIP trunk/s. I have few questions.

1. Can we consider this setup as a SIP B2BUA system?
2. I am planning to use HP DL 380 | Dual Quad Core Processor of 2.5GHz |
8GB RAM. What is the maximum number of concurrent calls and calls/sec
achievable by this hardware configuration? Please assume that all the other
factors are provided sufficiently.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
Kannan.

We are working on a project to create a general-purpose telecasting server
- see http://wombatdialer.com - there is practically no documentation yet,
but it's easy to set up and we tested it originating hundreds of channels
on multiple servers. It is alpha stage, but current versions are free and I
expect them to basically work.

If you want to give it a shot, you can install via RPM as described on the
website.
Thanks

 Hello,

 We are currently working on a project where using .call file on asterisk

 played.

 We know that pri has a capacity of handling only 30 channels at a time.
 Therefore, my worry is what happens if we write 100 files at a time on the
 spool. Will asterisk manage the queue or how exactly will it behave.

At the moment it's free as in beer, though closed-source.
It is written in Java and uses MySQL as its back-end.

Only write 30 or less files at a time. Asterisk will try and send them all and 
they will fail. Just count how many files are in the spool dir and how many 
calls are active and stay below your limit

2012-05-03 Thread Danny Nicholas
In my experience the first 30 calls will go simulatenously, then the remainder 
will go as lines become available.  You should use /g1 or /r1 to allow the call 
file to pick an open channel.  Mitul is somewhat correct;  all 100 calls will 
try to process at once, so the 70 “laggards” will have to re-process.  The 
better solution would be to send the calls in chunks of 20 or 30, especially if 
you don’t specify async=yes and multiple tries.

The best approach to this would be to have a sender that uses AMI to
monitor channels and release .call files as channels become available.
About 100 lines in PERL.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk Capacity

2012-05-03 Thread Eric Wieling
If you set the ctime (or maybe mtime) of your spool file to a date in the 
future, then asterisk won't process the .call file until that future time.

I recommend creating your call files with a random ctime/mtime for 0 - 240 
seconds in the future and make sure you have a random retry time in your .call 
file.

Also NEVER create your .call files in the asterisk outgoing directory -- 
asterisk might try processing the file before your script finishes writing the 
data.  Create the file in a different directory on the same filesystem and move 
it to the outgoing directory.

This is not a perfect solution, but it is good enough and worked well at the 
time.

 So what is a better
approach to achieve this

I've switched to AMI originate, call files did
not satisfy me for some reasons. 

Besides, originating calls from
script gives you full control on when does each call start ant stop,
thus allowing you to manage your capacity instead of guessing if those
30 call files were all executed successfully.

Or you could use a System call in the hangup dialplan and trigger a new
call as soon as an old one just finished. Maybe a silly idea but it shpuld
just work.

Because your formula is incomplete.

Bogocalls are a meaningless unit of measurement frequently applied to 
imponderable questions posed by people who lack sufficient knowledge to 
ask questions that can yield meaningful answers.

While a useful unit of measure in an in-Prefect world, you have to apply 
the per second conversion factor by dividing the number of bogocalls by 
237.5569 to get the number of real-world calls per second.

search the mailing list, this question has been asked and answered several
times.

But it's all dependent on hardware, codecs, bandwidth.

If you mix the right technologies there is no limit to how many calls you
could handle, you just have to do it in the right way with multiple servers
obviously.

[asterisk-users] Asterisk Capacity

2009-04-23 Thread Geraint Lee
Hi Guys,

I have a strong feeling the loads on my servers will be shooting up soon...
anyone got any idea how many calls i can expect to put through a
DL360:
Dual Quad Core 2.33ghz
4gb RAM with 1gb allocated for a ramdisk (call recordings)

This server is recording calls (mixmonitor), codec is gsm (no conversion).

I know there's a lot of other things to consider like AGI scripts and such
things but i'd like to know what the capacity should be simply for sip
registrations (which are in conf files) and calls (usually between 20 and 60
concurrent calls at present (around 12,000 calls a day - so relatively low
volume). No voicemail or meetme.

I expect to be pushing 300-400 concurrent calls within the next 2 months.

Next question... do i need to be looking at openSIPS or something similar to
handle registrations?

Any hints, tips and things to watch out for with a larger volume would be
great.

Cheers

Your biggest problem is likely to be the concurrent recording of channels.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk Capacity

2009-04-23 Thread z gringo

You don't say how many SIP registrations you are doing, but I have several 
servers with betwen 1000 and 1200 simultaneous registered users 24/7.   When we 
had the registrations in realtime (cached) with the mysql connector, everything 
started failing around 600 users.  With the ODBC connector we have not had that 
problem.  Ditto for putting the users in .conf files.  My servers all have 
around 300 to 400 simultaneous calls during peak periods, and I have a 1GB 
ramdisk for recordings.We are only recording a tiny percentage of those 
calls.  MySQL is running on a separate server dedicated to Databases.  The 
asterisks connect to the realtime DB via a private network on a second nic.

My thoughts are these:
1.  Asterisk is not going to be able to handle much more registration traffic 
than around 1200 registered users. (this depends on a whole lot of things 
though).  Eventually, it will need to be offloaded to something like OpenSIPs
2.  Somewhere around 800 simultaneous calls is about the most asterisk is going 
to be able to push.
3.  Your problem is going to be the call recording.  If you are trying to 
record all the calls on your server or even a large percentage of them, that is 
going to be your first problem area.

Another important thing to consider is how many calls you are setting up and 
tearing down each second.   If you have a bunch of users dialing manually and 
making long calls, that will be a lot easier to handle than if you have 3 
predictive dialers running against your server trying to bring up 30 calls per 
second.  If you are doing something like that, you will probably need to 
distribute accross multiple servers.

Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk Capacity

2009-04-23 Thread Geraint Lee
Thanks for that, it's pretty much confirming what i first anticipated... my
intentions are as follows:

agents register with opensips, opensips clusters a set of call recording
servers which then connect to our border servers which will save cdr and
choose the sip/iax provider to send the call to.

and for my predictive dialer, each server will spool as many calls as they
can before i see performance issues when they have an answer they too will
connect to the opensips server to get a call recording server which in turn
will pass it on to the agent again via opensips.

simples :)

looks like i need to install and learn opensips since this whole scenario
seems to be heavily relying on it :)

 concurrent calls at present (around 12,000 calls a day - so relatively low
 volume). No voicemail or meetme.

 I expect to be pushing 300-400 concurrent calls within the next 2 months.

 Next question... do i need to be looking at openSIPS or something similar
 to handle registrations?

 Any hints, tips and things to watch out for with a larger volume would be
 great.

 Cheers

 Geraint

 Thanks for that, it's pretty much confirming what i first anticipated...
 my intentions are as follows:

 agents register with opensips, opensips clusters a set of call recording
 servers which then connect to our border servers which will save cdr and
 choose the sip/iax provider to send the call to.

You may find it better to have call recording on a separate machine 
which is connected to a mirrored port on the switch and sniffs the 
traffic via something like Orecx:

Hi there,
  I forgot to say that I will use the * only to route calls from 
IP phones. So, I will have no CT hardware.
Again, could anybody say the concurrent calls limit for one Asterisk Box?

thanks,

Sorry, I was not thinking, you are correct..

Just most termination providers (SIP obviously) seem to put SER in front 
or Asterisk to get the scalability..

I guess my fingers were just going faster than my brain.. :)

How'd your trip home go?

You had me worried to death the other night; in the infamous words of my 
father's brother, You looked like you'd have to get better to die.

Anyways, hope the trip back was OK, and will be in touch soonly 
regarding that freakin' stuck 800 number.

Thx.

Hi all, 

I would like to know the real scalability of 
Asterisk. Does anyone have any real numbers? What is the largest deployment of 
Asterisk?

Thanks

There are carriers using Asterisk to terminate thousands of lines.  NuFone
has a data center with 80 Asterisk servers in place.  These installations
require a bit more engineering than the typical PBX server, but the system
does scale to extremely large systems.
