Re: [Xen-users] Xensource VM in Xen

Hi, 

I'll try the lvm stuff, otherwise i'll start from scratch, it should be cleaner and not so lore time consuming.

Thanks for the feedback on Asterisk. As i understand well you always tried an asterisk install with ztdummy? Here i will use an hardware FXO/FXS card, so it will maybe be more stable. I'll try however and let you know...

As i'm will enjoy some holiday in the next weeks, you won't have a direct feedback, just be patient! ;)

The timing issue which is theoretically only needed when using a hardware interface or conferencing and MOH from what I understand.
Bottom line is the ztdummy hack when not using hardware (I don't know of it will passthrough reliably) yields less then reliable results in xen.

I tried many vanilla centos installs on different xen 3.2.0 setups that all produced an asterisk server that missed/dropped calls or just plain was not consistent.

Moving the asterisk setup into a non virtualized environment produced more than one server with duplicate configs that all worked perfectly and have never missed a beat yet.
