Yup, that's exactly what they do. We put the full LERG in there which is
about 350,000 routes and it doesn't even bother it thanks to MySQL's ability
to search records lightning fast.
We also use it to provision our customers and their routing live via some
PHP scripts which simply write to the MySQL tables appropriately. No more
restarting or reloading Asterisk :)

Michael,
I think your idea for a db_mode 3 is a good idea especially
considering that
I'll soon be in the same position as you with respect to ser.
On an Asterisk note you mentioned patches at
http://svn.asteriskdocs.org/res_data/. Do these patches allow
Asterisk to store
user and server configuration data in a MySQL database rather
than in .conf
files? If not, could you elaborate a bit on what these
patches fix or features
that they provide?
Best Regards,
Paul

I figured that's what people would say :(
thanks though.
I thought of that but the problem is that it takes up to
the max time of my
longest REGISTER client timer before its back in
sync with
the one that runs
off the DB. It would be nice if there was a 3rd
option i.e.
modparam("usrloc", "db_mode", 3) that would make it read
only
at startup to
"seed" the memory database. The reason
I need this is
because I have a few
SER servers behind a Foundry ServerIron XL layer
4 switch.
When I bring the
failed server back online the Foundry
automatically
recognizes that port
5060 is alive again and immediately starts
sending it
traffic. If the RAM
based location table hasn't been fully
populated by the
time this happens
then we have a bunch of failed calls until it
syncs up
which in my case is
up to 5 min. I can get around this manually by
removing it
from the cluster
config in the Foundry but that takes away from
the
automation of the whole
thing.
Andrei/Jiri, what do you guys think of adding that as an
option? It seems
to me that it would be the most logical way to go
about
doing it and should
be very easy to do since all it is combining
parts of mode
0 and 1/2. I
have little experience doing any programming in
SER
otherwise I would just
write it and submit it as a patch. Most of my
time gets
sucked up into
for MySQL
dynamic config files, this is a must for
carriers... Well
at least for me :)
), but if you 2 don't have time or don't
think its worth
while then I guess
I will have find time. Please let me know what
you guys
think of this as
soon as you get a chance.
