Determining how many system resources are required
There are two ways to determine how many and what type of system resources you need to
allocate to meet your system’s requirements:
•Use the
Resource Management Advisor. The Resource Manager Advisor asks you a
series of questions, for example how many analog, digital and SIP phones will be
connected, how many simultaneous calls need to be supported, and so forth. Based on
your answers and the cards, modules, and Wave licenses installed on your Wave Server,
the Resource Manager Advisor then lists the recommended resources that need to be
allocated to support the phone, trunk, conference, and call recording requirements that
you specified. The Resource Management Advisor is ideal for Wave system
administrators who are relatively unfamiliar with the Wave ISM platform, or who want to
quickly determine the resources required.
Be aware that the Resource Management Advisor does not calculate requirements for all
resource types. If you need to support additional applications or features (see the table on
page 23-49), you must identify the required resource types and then manually calculate
and allocate the number of each type that you require to support your needs.
• Manually calculate the resources of each type (listed in the table on page 23-49) that you
require to meet your needs, factoring in both the hardware and Wave licenses installed on
your Wave Server, as well as other system resource limits described on page 23-51. (Note
that the installed hardware, licenses, and resource limits are factored in automatically if
you use the Resource Management Advisor.)
