RMX resource management is the responsibility of the system administrator:

Conferences initiated by Polycom Conferencing for Microsoft Outlook are ad hoc and therefore resources are not reserved in advance.

Polycom Conferencing for Microsoft Outlook Add-in assumes that sufficient resources are available and does not check resource availability. Sufficient resources are therefore not guaranteed.

A meeting invitation that is automatically accepted by the RMX is not guaranteed availability of resources.

If the RMX runs out of resources, attendees will not be able to connect to their conferences.

By using DMA to load-balance resources between several RMXs, resource capacity can be increased, alleviating resource availability problems.
