[dhijrwn]

lets say that i have express vicidial installation then i have cluster step that using 1 archive server.
Is this possible? different vicidial telephony stores their recording to 1 archive? Thank you.

Yes. Archive server isn't really a "Vicidial" server per se, it's merely an FTP service provider that also happens to have Web service. You could just use any FTP/Web server anywhere. Which means the FTP server can be any server and can be shared among many servers and clusters. You can even get complex and create different FTP users for different servers and configure different web sites (by name) to serve the files differently (with different permissions) to different users. That can get complex, of course, but just using the same user and web info for multiple Vicidials is rather common.

I tried but when I installed the new telephony server(cluster setup) it doesn't detect the archive server(because the existing archive is in the first cluster) or question me to add an archive. Do i need to manually add it/configure it from its astguiclient.conf?

you can specify the archive server ip during the "perl install.pl" script within the /usr/src/astguiclient/trunk folder
