[Freeswitch-users] sip_profiles - Aliases Question

Sat Jan 16 19:00:08 PST 2010

mm_202:

Appreciate the response. So, essentially what that means is that there
is no way to reload changes unless we do a restart which will drop
calls? I apologize before hand for saying this; but that's really
really bad when you have a production server to which changes are made
sometimes through out the day, new turnups/disconnects, etc...

I actually just did the following test:

a) Made sure I removed the alias from my internal profile. Verified it
was gone with "sofia status"

b) Edit the internal.xml file again and reset the flag to true for the alias.

c) Ran: sofia profile internal rescan  reloadxml

I received the expected message about the alias being added:

freeswitch at internal> 2010-01-16 22:17:49.778272 [INFO]
switch_time.c:812 Timezone reloaded 530 definitions
2010-01-16 22:17:49.778272 [DEBUG] sofia.c:2252 Duration out of
bounds, using default of 2000!
2010-01-16 22:17:49.778272 [NOTICE] sofia.c:1804 Adding Alias
[192.168.1.148] for profile [internal]

d) I then edited the file again and set the flag again to false

e) I then re-ran: sofia profile internal rescan  reloadxml again to
find out that the alias is not removed this time around. In other
words, the alias is only added with a re-scan after the flag is set to
true. It's not removed with rescan if the flag is set to false.

So, two big concerns now:

1- If there is no way to reload things dynamically without disrupting
service, is this by design? Specially the sip_profiles part, that's
really important.

2- Why are the a-e) steps above partially working, it might seem at
first glance that sofia profile internal rescan  reloadxml should do
what it says, to re-scan for new changes and load them for that
profile. Is this a bug or this is by design?

All:

Feel free to keep me honest here and let me know if I am doing
something wrong since I just started playing with FS today.

Appreciate the help,

Alfredo

That command
