Configuring Maximum Numbers of Sessions and Users Allowed

You can improve system performance by limiting the load generated by RTCcollaborative sessions. RTC provides parameters that enable you to specify the following:

• The maximum number of instant messaging and application sharing session that can run concurrently
• The maximum number of users that are allowed per instant messaging and application sharing session

Before a new participant can join an existing RTCsession (application sharing or instant messaging) or start a new session, the system first verifies if the maximum number of concurrent sessions or the maximum number of users for that particular session has been reached. If the user is allowed to join the session or start a new one and the session is an application sharing session, the system then also verifies if the maximum number of allowed threads in the AS Java has been reached (see Configuring Thread Settings for RTC Application Sharing Server ). In the event a session cannot be started or a user cannot participate in an existing session because of the set limitations, the user is notified on the screen.
