Hi, thanks to Simon Flannery, I now have a working test environment with SIPP and Asterisk. I wondered why only 83 concurrent calls were possible. The cpu was only at 24%, enough memory was free, network bandwith was only about 5MB up and down.
I checked Asterisk: [Aug 23 17:49:44] WARNING[6889]: app_dial.c:1106 dial_exec_full: Unable to create channel of type 'SIP' (cause 42 - Switching equipment congestion) [Aug 23 17:49:44] ERROR[6893]: rtp.c:1884 ast_rtp_new_with_bindaddr: Unable to allocate socket: Too many open files [Aug 23 17:49:44] ERROR[6893]: rtp.c:1884 ast_rtp_new_with_bindaddr: Unable to allocate socket: Too many open files [Aug 23 17:49:44] WARNING[6893]: chan_sip.c:4380 sip_alloc: Unable to create RTP audio and video session: Too many open files [Aug 23 17:49:44] ERROR[6893]: chan_sip.c:15643 sip_request_call: Unable to build sip pvt data for '192.168.2.3' (Out of memory or socket error) You would probably say, hey this is an already known error. Can´t you read faqs? "Too many open files". - So, according to the faqs, ulimit should be used. But ulimit shows unlimited, I set it to 65000, well nothing changed, still 83 concurrent calls. - What can be done next: /etc/security/limits.conf root soft nofile 4096 root hard nofile 8196 asterisk soft nofile 4096 asterisk hard nofile 8196 => nothing changed. - raising some parameters according to a performance article: sysctl -w net.ipv4.neigh.default.gc_thresh3=262144 echo 262144 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max echo 131072 > /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max echo 111616 > /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_default echo 4194304 > /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_max echo 111616 > /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_default echo 4194304 > /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max echo 4096 > /proc/sys/net/core/netdev_max_backlog echo 131072 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_max_tw_buckets echo 16384 65535 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range echo 0 >> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward => nothing changed. Yes, I rebooted each time. So, can anyone please help me with this issue? Has anyone had the same problems? thanks in advance Christian ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
