Configure the Number of Concurrent Calls on a UM Server
Applies to: Exchange Server 2010 SP3, Exchange Server 2010 SP2
You configure the number of incoming concurrent voice call connections that a Unified Messaging (UM) server accepts in Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. When you increase the number of concurrent connections on a Unified Messaging server, more system resources are required than if you decrease the number of concurrent voice call connections. Decreasing this setting is especially important on low-end, slower computers on which Unified Messaging is installed.
Note
The range for the number of concurrent voice calls is 0 to 200. The default setting is 100.
