Recording Conferences
Conferences running on the Collaboration Server can be recorded using a Polycom® RSS™
Recording and Streaming Server (RSS).
The recording system can be installed at the same site as the conferencing MCU or at a
remote site. Several MCU’s can share the same recording system.
Recording conferences is enabled via a Recording Link, which is a dial-out connection from
the conference to the recording system.
Recording can start automatically, when the first participant connects to a conference, or on
request, when the Collaboration Server user or conference chairperson initiates it.
Multiple Recording Links may be defined.
Each Recording Link defined on the Collaboration Server can be given a descriptive name and
can be associated with one VRR saved on the Polycom RSS 4000.
The following guidelines apply:
•A Recording Link that is being used by an ongoing conference cannot be deleted.
•A Recording Link that is assigned to a Profile cannot be deleted.
•While a Profile is being used in an ongoing conference, it cannot have a different
Recording Link assigned to it.
• Up to 100 Recording Links can be listed for selection in the Conference Profile.
• Multiple Recording Links are supported in Continuous Presence and Video Switched
conferences.
• The number of Recording Links available for selection is determined by the value of the
MAXIMUM_RECORDING_LINKS System Flag in system.cfg. Default value is 20
Recording Links.
• The recording link can be encrypted when recording from an encrypted conference to
the RSS that is set to encryption. For more details, see "Recording Link Encryption” on
page 13-7.
