Re: [hylafax-users] Designating group of modems to specific task



Thank you very much for your replies. I appologize for the delay in mine.

Thanks to your suggestions HylaFax seems to be using the correct modems. I'll let you all know for sure once we do some "stress-testing" of the system, as currently only a few test faxes have gone through it.

Yes, it's a Patton Board (Model 2977) using the Digi drivers.

I think I saw the page that mentions fax batching not being avaliable yet, and while batching would be very nice, my goal right now is just to make sure that two (or more) faxes to the same destination will send simltaniously on seporate modems. From what I read it seems that "MaxConcurrentJobs = unlimited" should take care of that, but I'm not totally sure.

Thanks again for your help everyone,

Digis?

I would like modems 0-24 to only handle incoming faxes,
and 25-45 (leaving two remaining) to handle only outgoing.


There are several ways to configure this. My preference is to put "RingsBeforeAnswer: 1" and "ModemReadyState: D" in the config files for the receiving modems and "RingsBeforeAnswer: 0" in the config files for the sending modems. Of course, also don't attach lines that will RING to the outgoing modems.

I also would like to make sure hylafax will send multiple
faxes to the same destination at once rather than create a
queue and send them one at a time.


Fax batching isn't supported by default.  See:

Feel free to fix the faxq bugs in the work there and help out a bit.
