Default AAH 2.5 VMWARE Physical Memory = 100% ????

Hi,

I'm running AAH 2.5 image from vmwarez.com on vmware player and my Physical Memory keeps hitting 92-100% but Disk Swap remains at 0%. Is this normal??? I that the memory bug had been fixed on this AAH image by Vmwarez??

Does AAH have to use up all physical memory then start using the disk swap file? Sorry i'm new Linux, really windows a man so I'm confused.. :roll:

My PC Pentium 4 2000Mhz with 512mb - sound quality appears to be really good when making calls with no real timing issues. (Only me making calls)

Can anybody help or explain ?

When you install AAH in a VMWare virtual machine you defiine how much memory it is going to use from your computer's real memory. If you defined a VM with, let say, 128MB you will probably see in Linux 100% memory usage. You could edit your VMX file an increase the amont of memory to something bigger like 256MB and everything would look ok.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply Juan.. even if i increase the memoey to 256mb it gets 96-98% full after 2-4 calls ?? but disk swap remains at 0% - this can't be normal.

I've started a similar thread on this memory utilization concern, but from a standard linux install. Not that there are any answers their either but if you come across an answer that isn't windows or vmware specific then would you be kind enough to post in that thread too, as I will do the same.

Thanks.. see: http://voxilla.com/PNphpBB2-viewtopic-t-7734.html

Hi,

Leaving my VMWARE AAH server running for 10 hours and making 10 - 15 calls, I have discovered the following:

My Physical Memory keeps going up down from 97 - 99% and my swap file has now kicked in(at 6%) Sound quality on calls is still good and no serious timing issues. Sounds like AAH uses all physical memory then .. swap file kicks in.
Not sure if this correct ?? maybe??? :roll:

Gaica what version of AAH you using??? I think 2.4 had a memory leak problem but not sure.. Try leaving your server running for 24 hours and make 10 - 15 calls. Let physical memory hit 99% see if your swap file kicks in and what the sound quality is like.

I'm using the latest 2.5 aah. Personally I wouldn't be all that much more comfortable about the swap file kicking in as this could just be a signal that the mem expansion has exceeded the max available - yet is still growing.

Have you done anything to the standard dial plans? I've made a few modifications to extensions_custom.conf but have double and triple checked that over and over. There is the possibility that I'm not using proper edicate for managing failed attempts (ie: priority + 101) but I don't think that is an issue unless you have something allocated to that priority that isn't appropriate to handle the event. In my case, 101 onward priority tasks don't exist so I believe the default is to hangup the channel.

If you could, post whether the swap file grows or not. Perhaps you could also monitor how long dialparites-agi takes to execute on incoming calls - this is where my sore point is, as dialparties is taking longer to execute and therefore causing the anwer delay to get longer, and introducing silence between when the system ring starts and the voip ring ends
