Conferencing Center Administrator Functions
Office suite. This percentage of available resources can be altered if needed. Available
resources will depend on the audio channels being taken up by the VoiceMail system and
other systems that may use this resource. Audio channels are released after the end of
every conference.
If more resources need to be allocated because of user demand, move the bar accordingly,
but remember that these resources are also used by other systems. Increasing resources
for conferencing may greatly effect other systems, such as the Voicemail system.
Note:
Reducing resources may invalidate existing data. For example, if there are booked
conferences that are relying on the pre-existing resources, configuration changes may make
those conferences obsolete.

Database Backup
Backing up the Conferencing Center's database is a vital maintenance requirement. On the
Conferencing Center Scheduler, the administrator can perform a manual backup or create a scheduled
backup. Once set up, the scheduled backup will automatically save a copy of the database at the
specified time and into the specified folder directory. A manual backup is typically required prior to any
system or software upgrade. Conferencing Center will continue to operate while the backup is being
performed.
