I'm kinda confused about the project at this point. I moved to this project because I was tired of messing with asterisk. The promise of HA, clustering and off loading the media were the motivating factors. The clustering alone was a godsend.
As I get to know this better, it's looking more like a not quite there distributed setup, meant more for salability than high availability. If that management server goes down, a lot of things seem to go with it, including admin and users not having access to important web functions. What else goes down with that main server? To me, a high availability cluster means my shared GFS web setup for example. Nothing is tied to any one server, they all have equal roles. One or more fail, makes no difference, *everything* keeps running. It's even a distributed setup by default so I have redundant load balancers on front of the web farm. I even have multiple paths to network storage in case storage becomes unavailable. Now that's HA :). It's too bad sipx wasn't built on something like the above, that would have been wonderful, again, unless I've not found that one document that explains how to go about getting real HA. Though, your answer also confirms that this is something on the planning table which is good to hear. So, some questions on things that could help; 1: Is there a way of moving the user web controls onto a separate web server for the cluster? I realize that the web functions are tied to the server itself but are there any mods that I could make to allow for the services to be centralized, allowing all hosts to have access? 2: Or, I was planning on running a couple of locations, but was going to cluster them together. Should I instead be thinking more along the lines of separate clusters and some method of syncing of the data?
