To delete an MCU

1On the Dashboard, verify that there are no calls and conferences on the MCU you want to delete.

2Go to Network > MCU > MCUs.

3In the MCUs list, select the MCU you want to remove from the Polycom RealPresence DMA system’s pool of available conferencing resources.

4In the Actions list, select Delete.

5When asked to confirm that you want to delete the selected MCU, click Yes.

To immediately stop using one or more MCUs for conferencing and simplified ISDN dialing

1Go to Network > MCU > MCUs.

2In the MCUs list, select the MCUs of interest.

3In the Actions list, select Stop Using.

4When asked to confirm that you want to stop using the MCUs, click Yes.

The Polycom RealPresence DMA system immediately terminates all H.323 calls and conferences that it placed on those MCUs (for SIP calls only, it migrates the calls to in-service MCUs with available capacity). It also excludes these MCUs from consideration for any future conferences and simplified ISDN dialing calls.

This has no effect on the MCUs themselves, which continue to accept any calls from other sources.

To stop using one or more MCUs, but allow existing calls and conferences to continue

1Go to Network > MCU > MCUs.

2In the MCUs list, select the MCUs of interest.

3In the Actions list, select Busy Out.

4When asked to confirm that you want to busy out the MCUs, click Yes.

The Polycom RealPresence DMA system stops creating new conferences on those MCUs, but it allows existing conferences to continue and accepts new calls to those conferences. It also excludes these MCUs from consideration for simplified ISDN dialing calls.

This has no effect on the MCUs themselves, which continue to accept any calls from other sources.

To start using one or more MCUs for conferencing and simplified ISDN dialing again

1Go to Network > MCU > MCUs.

2In the MCUs list, select the out-of-service MCUs of interest.

3In the Actions list, select Start Using.
