7970 causes Asterisk to frequent death....
« on: September 30, 2008, 03:31:51 pm »
Hi,

I've ordered two more Cisco 7970 phones and I'm using one of them in my setup from day to day....

And I've spotted two problems :
- asterisk sometimes on heavy call use of 7970 simply dies (I'm yet to capture logs...).
- sometimes 7970 so heavily updates its Orbiter that I cannot make anything else with it (I've spotted that this behaviour shows more frequently after reboot or Router reload, when Orbiter stays constantly refreshing its screen)....

Anyone with similar experience ? Are there SCCP Firmwares that are more stable than others ?

What to do if I see that asterisk is dead (AFAIK, there should be a script that would restart it??? ) under LMCE - reboot surely helps, but is there any shorter way ? Is anyone using 7970 sucessfully in day to day use - or even your wife uses it ?
 
Thanks in advance,

regards,

Bulek.

i use it day to day, but have seen issues recently. Asterisk died every other week, and a few days ago the phone did not register properly any more. Have yet to debug that, but I wonder if we should switch to the SIP firmware. We need to adapt a few scripts for that, as the phone lines have to be configured by the xml file when not using sip.

Hi,

my asterisk again died yesterday... But in my case this started to happen when I connected my 3 7970 Cisco phones with SCCP firmware...

It's simply not running, full.log says:

Isn't there a script that should watch and restart Asterisk if necessary ? I also didn't spot alert on Orbiters that something is wrong with VOIP software...

Ok, one is a problem that Asterisk dies, more important is the problem that obviously nothing is watching it...

Do we have currently any watch on Asterisk under LMCE?

Thanks in advance,
