Chapter 19-Collaboration Server Administration and Utilities
Polycom, Inc. 19-9
When viewing the
Collaboration Server resource report for mixed CP and SVC conferences, the resource
allocations are described in AVC HD720p30 units. A port ratio of 1 AVC HD port will equal
2 AVC SD ports, which equals 3 SVC ports (in a non-mixed conference).
When the Collaboration Server is reporting the available capacity, it will appropriately
round up the remaining capacity to the nearest whole value of available ports. For example,
one SVC endpoint in a conference is equal to 1/3 of the resource value. The resource report
displays this as one full resource used. Two SVC endpoints is equal to 2/3 of the resource
value. Therefore, the resource report displays this as one full resource used, and so forth.
The following table explains the actual resource capacity utilization for both CP only and
mixed CP and SVC conferences:
* Resources are consumed at this rate only after the conference contains mixed endpoints.
The Resource Capacity Utilization table indicates the total amount of ports used for each
port type for one MPMx media board in full capacity.
