Polycom RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 1500/2000/4000 Administrator’s Guide

RealPresence Collaboration Server (RMX) 4000 MPMx-D Mode: 1440 (180 video).

From Version 7.1, MPM media cards are not supported.

System resources are calculated according to the RMX’s license. For more information see "Video/Voice Port Configuration” on page 21-10.

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.

If sufficient resources are not available in the system and a scheduled Reservation cannot be activated, the Reservation is deleted from the schedule.

Resources for Reservations are calculated using the Reserve Resources for Audio/Video Participants fields of the New Reservation dialog box. For more information see "New Reservation – Reserved Resources” on page 9-9.

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.

If the RMX is in MPM+ or MPMx Mode and Fixed Capacity Mode is selected, the number of resources allocated to this type of video participant (CIF, SD, HD) is also checked. If resource deficiencies are found an error message is displayed.

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.
