Maintenance Manual
Participants The number of active participants in this
conference. The number may be followed by
further numbers, in parentheses, which highlight
when participants are pending reconnection,
dormant because they haven't yet been tried, or
failed because the MCU has been unable to
connect them. This value does not include
streaming viewers or any other endpoints that are
viewing only and not contributing any media to the
conference.
If a limit on the number of participants has been set
for the conference, the Participants value is
shown as A/B, where A is the number of active
participants and B is the configured limit. If it has
not been possible to reserve all of the required
ports for a conference (for instance because of a
configuration error), this value will display in red as
an error indication.
If a conference is protected by a PIN and
you are not logged in as the administrator,
the number of participants is hidden until the
PIN is entered. In this case, the Participants
value displays as <PINrequired>.
Start time When the conference began. If the conference
started before today, the date also displays.
Time
remaining
How long the conference still has to run. If the
conference does not have a limited duration, this
column displays as <forever>.
