Sorry for the late reply....

the dispatcher is set as follows:

# ----- dispatcher params -----
modparam("dispatcher", "list_file", DS_LIST)
modparam("dispatcher", "flags", 2)
modparam("dispatcher", "dst_avp", "$avp(AVP_DST)")
modparam("dispatcher", "grp_avp", "$avp(AVP_GRP)")
modparam("dispatcher", "cnt_avp", "$avp(AVP_CNT)")
modparam("dispatcher", "sock_avp", "$avp(AVP_SOCK)")
modparam("dispatcher", "ds_hash_size", 9)
modparam("dispatcher", "dstid_avp", "$avp(dsdstid)")
modparam("dispatcher", "ds_ping_latency_stats", 1)  

I think it is correct, though what I wish is to set dispatcher on Load Balancing mode. 

This is my dispatcher.list :
1 sip:10.19.XXX.YYY:5060 0 1 duid=sipgw01;maxload=100
1 sip:10.19.XXX.YYY:5060 0 2 duid=sipgw02;maxload=100
1 sip:10.19.XXX.YYY:5060 0 3 duid=sipgw03;maxload=100
1 sip:10.19.XXX.YYY:5060 0 4 duid=sipgw04;maxload=100

This is my dispatch routes:
# Dispatch requests
route[DISPATCH] {
        
        if(!ds_select_dst("1", "10","4"))
        {
                xlog("L_INFO","no destination selected from dispatcher list!");
                send_reply("404", "No destination");
                exit;
        }

        xlog("L_INFO","going to <$ru> via <$du>\n");

        t_on_failure("RTF_DISPATCH");
        route(RELAY);

        exit;

}

Any clue?

Hi Sergio,

Make sure your dispatcher probing parameters are set correctly. (reply codes as well).

And if it happens again you can catch OPTIONS traffic with sngrep  "CSeq: [0-9]+ OPTIONS"
and see what happens on this level.
Whether Kamailio does send pings, whether replies from gw are the same as expected, etc.

Hello 

I would start by looking at the logs when that happens. The gateway would only get marked "ip" when there is no reply by the gateway or when it replies with 500. Also OPTIONs not being replied promptly.
Maybe add some logging right before ds_mark_dst("ip").

Hope that helps,

Hello,

Using Kamailio 5.1.6 for load balancing & failover, 
I noticed that from time to time, and very rarely, the dispatcher module stops dispatching to the Asterisk servers. 
I have to execute a "kamcmd dispatcher reload" for it to (re)start working.

This is my dispatcher.list :
1 sip:10.19.XXX.YYY:5060 0 1 duid=sipgw01;maxload=100
1 sip:10.19.XXX.YYY:5060 0 2 duid=sipgw02;maxload=100
1 sip:10.19.XXX.YYY:5060 0 3 duid=sipgw03;maxload=100
1 sip:10.19.XXX.YYY:5060 0 4 duid=sipgw04;maxload=100

This is my dispatch routes:
# Dispatch requests
route[DISPATCH] {
        
        if(!ds_select_dst("1", "10","4"))
        {
                xlog("L_INFO","no destination selected from dispatcher list!");
                send_reply("404", "No destination");
                exit;
        }

        xlog("L_INFO","going to <$ru> via <$du>\n");

        t_on_failure("RTF_DISPATCH");
        route(RELAY);

        exit;

}

# Sample failure route
failure_route[RTF_DISPATCH] {
        if (t_is_canceled()) {
                exit;
        }
        xlog("L_INFO", "Media server $du failed to answer, selecting other one!");
        # next DST - only for 500 or local timeout
        if ( t_check_status("500") || (t_branch_timeout() && !t_branch_replied()) )
        {
                #mark the destination Inactive and Probing
                ds_mark_dst("ip");
                if(ds_next_dst())
                {
                        t_on_failure("RTF_DISPATCH");
                        route(RELAY);
                        exit;
                }
        }
}

I suspect that the ds_mark_dst("ip") command in RTF_DISPACTH is the cause. 
Is there any think I can improve on this? Or any know bug with the dispatcher in Kamailio 5.1.6 version?

Thanks in advance,
