+Be careful, respect the order for starting and stopping the full VoiceXML modules :
+To start the platform orderly:
+  * Start Dahdi (optional)
+  * Start VXI
+  * Start Asterisk
+To stop it, orderly :
+  * Stop Asterisk
+  * Stop VXI
+  * Stop Dahdi (optional)
+===== Start Dahdi deamon =====
+To start the dahdi driver:
+<code>
+# /etc/init.d/dahdi start
+</code>
+To stop the dahdi driver:
+<code>
+# /etc/init.d/dahdi stop
+</code>
+===== Start Vxi deamon =====
+The VoiceXML browser software is installed in /usr/sbin and /usr/lib/openvxi. The VoiceXML browser setup script on Linux is /etc/init.d/openvxi. The openvxi script calls the /usr/sbin/safe_openvxi executable that functions as a monitor and auto-loader for your VoiceXML browser system. This safe_openvxi starts VoiceXML browser and monitors it to make sure it is still running. If the VoiceXML browser process dies, the script will attempt to restart it.
+<code>
+# /etc/init.d/openvxi start
+</code>
+To stop the VXI* deamon:
+<code>
+# /etc/init.d/openvxi stop
+</code>
+NOTE:
+This startup script runs only for Debian/Ubuntu Linux distributions, please modify or install a correct this script file to launch correctly Vxi from other Linux systems. We provide a script to start the actual, AsteriskNOW linux distribution from Digium.
+===== Start Asterisk deamon =====
+For production setups, we use safe_asterisk wrapper to catch any asterisks error, avoiding to restart asterisk manualy. This script will  start a new asterisk instance when asterisk process is missing. So if you really want to stop asterisk, you must stop safe_asterisk script first.
+Start asterisk: (just call the wrapper)
+<code>
+#safe_asterisk
+</code>
+Stop asterisk:
+<code>
+#killall -9 safe_asterisk && asterisk -x 'core stop gracefully'
+</code>
+NOTE:
+On production server there can be a CRON command line restarting asterisk automatically each morning, using safe_asterisk is mandatory. Check with “#crontab -l”, if there is any asterisk killall commands related with asterisk.
