Thank you for your reply Karsten,
The distinction between the auto-incremented IDs and the manually-chosen
setid is clear to me. The issue is how to pick the same entry from the same
setid when a pvar resolves to the same value in an algorithm that takes
said pvar into account for a hash:
Say KamA has:
set_id_100_members:
* id: 0, setid: 100, destination: sip:b2b1.domain.com...
* id: 1, setid: 100, destination: sip:b2b2.domain.com...
and KamB has:
* id: 7, setid: 100, destination: sip:b2b1.domain.com...
* id: 9, setid: 100, destination: sip:b2b1.domain.com...
Now, say that $fU is used as the value to be hashed over for dispatcher.
How does one ensure that for $fU = 'alice', both KamA and KamB will choose
the same destination, for example b2b2.domain.com
Obviously, both need to be configured with setid 100, but do other things
play a role, such as the way the destination is presented (e.g. sip:
b2b2.domain.com;xdesc=b2b-east might refer to the same host as sip:
b2b2.domain.com or sip:3.3.3.3, but does it affect dispatcher in any way)?
Similarly, how about the fact that these dispatcher destinations are in
reversed order, or that their auto-increment IDs are different?
I hope this clarifies my question. Thanks!
BR,
George

Hi Georg,
setid is not an autoincrement.
See the DB structure information (should be to your version)
https://kamailio.org/docs/db-tables/kamailio-db-5.1.x.html#idm1963
I group my targets with the setid. That's maybe the name "sets of
id's"
So all with the same id would be taken if the are active and how you call
them from your kamailio.cfg.
The other question is an implementation one. I don't understand the
problem completely.
Cheers

Hello all,
I need to have two separate kamailio instances' dispatcher modules make
the same decisions when using algorithm 7 (hash over pvar). What do I need
to do to ensure this?
Note that for design reasons, the two instances cannot share a dispatcher
table from db. If I ensure the "setid" group used for algo 7 in the
respective cases contain the same group of hosts, is it enough? Do other
things matter, such as the ordering of the group members in the table (i.e.
different AUTO INCREMENT ids?). Does the setid need to be the same number?
Do I need to ensure the 'destination' values are identical (i.e. not using
IPs for dispatcher table A and hostnames for dispatcher table B)?
If someone knows what the criteria is for matching a hashed pvar to a
member of a dispatcher setid and how this can be made deterministic, I
would be grateful. Thanks!
BR,
George
