Does anyone know of any reporting available with historical information about how many items are queued to be sent, and what the status of available resources are, etc etc? I need some really detailed information about queued time to insure that a service level defined is being met by the resources allocated. Any help is greatly appreciated. Does IFAX Enterprise verison offer this?


Although such a feature could be added to HylaFAX, I would think that it should be a fairly easy task to run a cron job parsing faxstat output to come up with a relatively good view of the queue size over time and the modem status.

One thing that I do think could be added to HylaFAX that would make a significant improvement with respect to queue management would be to add "SUBMIT" records to xferfaxlog. That way xferfaxstats or something could parse the average time-in-queue for each destination or whatever. If that average gets too high, then it's time to add modems/lines.

Another thing you could do is have a cronjob (likely written in perl) that would parse that log then insert data into a mysql log. Then write a webpage to display the data in any way you see fit.
