Hello,
that's how the algorithm is implemented and the last one has more calls
because it is used to fill the slots left empty because of truncation in
percentage computation.
The weight is a percentage as an integer value, practically an integer
from 1 to 100.
So, if you have 16 gateways to route to with dispatcher, each with
weight 50, then the sum of weights is 800. The percentage corresponding
to each gateway is computed with (50/800)*100 = 6.25, converted to
integer is 6.
Now, 6*16=96, so 4 slots were left empty, which are filled with the last
destination that results in 10 slots for it.
I haven't implemented the rweight algorithm, but for the weight
algorithm is expected to set the value to an integer from 1 to 100 and
have the sum of them to be 100, otherwise also the last gateway fills
the empty slots. Moreover, if the sum exceeds 100, then the gateways
that end up after the 100 slots will be ignored.
Note that there are other algorithms if you want even distribution, like
round robin or call load balancing.
Cheers,
Daniel

I noticed the exact same behaviour with my

the priority and rweight are different.
until now, i'm ignoring the "issue". But if there is a fix, I would
like to know too.

Hello all!
We are running Kamailio version 5.3.3 with 16 small Asterisk
servers. Kamailio uses a dispatcher module to distribute calls.
Algorithm #11 is selected. All destinations are configured with
priority set to 50 and attribute to rweight=50.
We noticed that one server constantly receives more calls than
others. I run a few tests. I was sending 1000 calls to the system.
4 per second. All servers except one were getting around 60 calls
while the last one - around 100.
I then noticed that the server which receives most calls is
always last in the "kamcmd dispatcher.list" command output. I then
changed the order in the dispatcher DB table and repeat the test.
The other server that now was last was getting the most calls.
Does anyone else use algorithm #11 and finds the same thing? Is
there something additional that I can provide to help with the
investigation?
Thanks!
