<p>Just to be clear, I dumped IRLP a long time ago. Reasons include, but are not limited to, IRLP being a giant kludge. I'll save the IRLP bashing for another day.</p>
<p>I like virtualizing for security reasons, as well as reducing the electric bill from having to run multiple different systems. I've had good results so far virtualizing with VirtualBox.</p>
<p>Just wondering if AllStar plays well virtualized, especially with the URI and USB sound fobs.</p>

<font face="Arial"><span style="font-size:12pt">Why virtualize (I am assuming you are thinking of a third party product) – this is linux – a multi-tasking environment. You can run both on the same machine.<br>

I'm new to app_rpt RoIP, coming from a background with IRLP.<br>
<br>
I'm wondering if anyone has ever tried virtualizing AllStar, and if so, were there any issues.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

I am using a Neoware CA-22. It is both server and node on one machine. I<br>
do not have any other machines for my allstar node. While watching top,<br>
the CPU has yet to get busier than 0.4. It is using DSP for audio, and<br>
runs without fail.<br>
<br>
It has 12Vdc input with a standard barrel plug. Not sure what the low<br>
voltage cut-off is, but it runs fine on a SLA battery that just came<br>
from an auto charger that goes to float after bulk charging brings it up<br>
to 14.1V. The current draw varies, usually above 500mA at idle, and<br>
about 750mA when I'm talking to or listening on the node.<br>
<br>
It has a 1GHz processor, 1GB RAM and 1GB flash drive. I used what I had,<br>
but you will have space left over if you are only able to get 512MB RAM<br>
and 512MB flash.<br>
<br>
I don't remember if I am using Limey Linux for VIA or i686. I am<br>
thinking it's the for for i686 as I tried loading other linux distros<br>
for VIA on there before I got into allstar and they just plain sucked<br>
and didn't work for garbage.<br>
