[SR-Users] Re: Kamailio stops processing the calls - restart fixes it.

Hello, you can check with „ps” to see the configured values for Kamailio. On Debian you can adapt it in /etc/default/kamailio For PKG pool, using 16 MB should be usually fine. For SHM pool, you could use 1GB, depending on the server memory. Much more is usually not needed. You should see some memory related errors in case you run into a low memory situation in the log files.

Hi Henning, Thanks for your email. Oh , I have not done the explicit config for shared and private memory pool. Where can i see the related documentation? For 8G RAM , I am happy to allocate 5G for Kamailio. What config do you recommend?

Hi Guys, While I am still testing v 5.6.4 on my lab, Production server (v 5.5.3) became unresponsive again. I took "bt full" to all processes and have been analysing that. It looks like a memory allocation issue. I see frequent occurrences of "No symbol table info available". This is a purpose specific server with plenty of resources available including 8G RAM and hardly a fraction of that is used. Only main services are redis and Kamailio. I am not using mysql as well. It has only 30-40 concurrent calls. . I have seen selinux is permissive and uimits has liberated values. Do I need to do any other special OS level settings? Or is it really a version upgrade required? Should I get rid of KEMI or do config directly in the cfg file? I had seen another user reported that issue https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/issues/2380 and was advised to use v 5.3.5, This is pretty strange because I had experience with opensips before , even with the very old version it used to handle 3k calls and literally several years of non-interruptive function without a single restart or fine tuning etc. Not sure I can attach the logs here , please see the excerpts below.
