Viewing Participant Alerts; Resource Management; Forcing Video Resource Allocation To Cif Resolution - Polycom RealPresence 1800 Administration Manual

Viewing Participant Alerts

The Participants Alerts indication bar blinks red indicating participant connection difficulties in conferences.
Once viewed, the Participant Alerts indication bar becomes statically red until the errors have been resolved
in the MCU.
Participant Alerts enables users, participants and conferences to be prompted and currently connected. This
includes all participants that are disconnected, idle, on standby or waiting for dial-in. Alerts are intended for
users or administrators to quickly see all participants that need their attention.
To view the Participants Alerts list:
1 In RMX Manager, click the red blinking Participants Alerts indication bar.
The Participant Alerts pane displays similar properties to that of the Participant List pane. For more
information, see
2 To resolve participant issues that created the Participant Alerts, the administrator can either
Connect , Disconnect
Note: Delay Following Restart
Following MCU reset, a delay may occur when synchronizing with the external NTP server.

Resource Management

This section describes how the MCU resources are managed by the MCU and how they are used by the
MCU to connect participant to conferences.

Forcing Video Resource Allocation to CIF Resolution
You can set the MCU to allocate one CIF video resource to an endpoint, regardless of the resolution
determined by the Conference Profile parameters. This forcing saves resources and enables more
endpoints to connect to conferences.
The forcing is done by modifying the system configuration and it applies to all conferences running on the
MCU.
You can specify the endpoint types for which resource allocation can be forced to CIF resource, enabling
other types of endpoints to use higher resolutions in the same conference. For example, you can force the
system to allocate one CIF video resource to CMAD and VSX endpoints while HDX endpoints can connect
using SD or HD video resources.
