polycom2080 Posted September 27, 2010 Report Share Posted September 27, 2010 here is the case, if we have a 2nd server set up for fail-over and the a full backup from each domain and the both PBX haves the mail server on then the same domain will get 2 midnight cdr reports, now i would like to have the option to turn off the mail server and turn it on, i have tried by putting in a wrong password, but the issue is if i correct the password it will send out all unsent emails so the client would get a whole bunch of email, i would suggest to have a on or off , or it should only send emails if it have any call activity, please advice what can be worked out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other option is to clear the "Admin email address". Maybe we can add a 'on/off' setting in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodia PBX Posted September 28, 2010 Report Share Posted September 28, 2010 Did you consider virtualization for failover? This solves a lot of problems, including the one you described in this topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, we would set up 2 PBX and the fail-over will work via SRV and the phones would register to an other second PBX and the DID would reroute since we have setup to send it to DNS not to an IP an we have worked with polycom files that will register to 2nd box without having to restart and when the primary is back up it would reregister to primary in this case it would be very help-full to get a solution for the emails Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has a lot of limitations. Everything that is stateful will get lost. For example mailbox messages won't make it. Though it is still better than having no service at all.
