Hi,
An easy one ... or two.
1 - I need to start up ser automatically on the boot of the machine ... i am sure there are scripts and instructions on how to do it. Any pointer?
2 - I need a way to monitor the status of ser (and sems), so that in case of a crash they are automatically killed and restarted. I thought about writing some kind of cron thingy using serctl ... Again, pointers?
Regards,
Cesc

ONsip.org has scripts available:

Most rebust will be to use sipsak to send PING or OPTIONS to the server. Then you know it will respond, you are also less vulnerable to potential changes in serctl etc. g-)

When using debian packages (make deb) the startup scrtipts will be installed automatically, and openser will be started at startup. Otheriwse (on debain) just cp packaging/debian/openser.init /etc/init.d/openser maybe you have tomodify the path inisde the startup script to fit your needs. chmod a+x /etc/init.d/openser update-rc.d openser defaults

We montior using a cron job: # passive check if SER is alive */5 * * * * /usr/lib/ser/checker
/usr/lib/ser/checker: ---------------------- #!/bin/sh
NETCOUNT=`netstat -antu | fgrep 5060 | fgrep 0.0.0.0: | wc -l`
if [ $NETCOUNT -lt 2 ] ; then echo "SER does not seem to listen on udp/tcp 5060. Restarting." /etc/init.d/openser restart fi

Hi all,
Thanks for the responses. It seems that the ser part is covered well, though i need also to monitor sems ... i could simply monitor by pid or by sending some command via the fifo/unixsock and check the reply ... Anyone doing something like this?

Cesc

I send INVITE requests to SEMS with fake To tag. This will trigger Call leg/transaction does not exist reply. If I get the reply then I know SEMS is up and running.

Great ... i will get my hands on it ...
The thing is ... i have to give a demo ... and you know, demo effect ... everything crashes at the most inapropriate time :D Monitoring and restarting is not a fix ... but it will do the trick for a while :D

One more thing -- if you want to make SER restarts really reliable then you can use -G command line option. SER would write the process group of all SER processes into the specified file. You can then pass this value as negative number to kill and it will kill all ser processes.

Hi Cesc,
try to use "monit" to perform pid-based monitoring.
