• Collaboration Server 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 Collaboration Server is
not guaranteed availability of resources.
— If the Collaboration Server runs out of resources, attendees will not be able to
connect to their conferences.
• By using DMA to load-balance resources between several Collaboration Servers,
resource capacity can be increased, alleviating resource availability problems.
