Polycom 1500/1800/2000/4000 manual Reservations

Scheduling Reservations

●In RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/2000/4000, resources for Reservations are also calculated using the Reserve Resources for Audio/Video Participants fields of the New Reservation dialog box. For more information see Resources.

●Resources are reserved for participants at the highest video resolution supported by the Line Rate specified in the conference Profile and up to the maximum system video resolution specified by the Resolution Configuration dialog box.

●When a new Reservation is created in the Reservation Calendar, the effect of the new Reservation (including its recurrences) on available resources is checked. If resource deficiencies are found an error message is displayed.

Defined dial-in or dial-out participants, Meeting Rooms, Entry Queues and new connections to Ongoing conferences are not included in the resources calculation.

Reservations

●A Reservation that has been activated and becomes an ongoing conference is deleted from the Reservation Calendar list.

●The maximum number of concurrent reservations is 80. Reservations with durations that overlap (for any amount of time) are considered to be concurrent.

●System resource availability is partially checked when reservations are created:

If a conference duration extension request is received from an ongoing conference, the request is rejected if it would cause a resource conflict.

If several reservations are scheduled to be activated at the same time and there are not enough resources for all participants to be connected:

The conferences are activated.

Participants are connected to all the ongoing conferences until all system resources are used up.

●A scheduled Reservation cannot be activated and is deleted from the schedule if:

An Ongoing conference has the same Numeric ID.

Sufficient resources are not available in the system.

●If a problem prevents a Reservation from being activated at its schedule time, the Reservation will not be activated at all. This applies even if the problem is resolved during the Reservation’s scheduled time slot.

●A Profile that is assigned to a Reservation cannot be deleted.

●Reservations are backed up and restored during Setup > Software Management >Backup / Restore Configuration operations. For more information see Software Management.

●All existing reservations are erased by the Standard Restore option of the Administration > Tools > Restore Factory Defaults procedure.

●Reservations can also be scheduled from Conference Templates. For more information see Scheduling a Reservation From a Conference Template.
