Understanding the minimum and maximum values

The MSC Configuration allows you to determine how the resources are assigned on your BCM.

In some BCM systems, the total number of features and devices that require resources exceeds the

number of resources that are available. To address this issue, BCM allows you to share the

resources. By changing minimum and maximum values for each component you can fine tune this

sharing.

Minimum

The minimum value is the number of resources that are always assigned to a component. You use

this number to ensure a base level of service for a specific component. For example, to ensure that

at least four people can be using voice mail at all times, you would enter four as a minimum value

for the Voice Port component.

The resources that are not assigned using the minimum values are shared by the components. If a

component needs additional resources, it can use some of the shared resources to provide service

during the busy period. This method of sharing resources allows your BCM system to adapt to the

changing demands for services.

Maximum

The maximum value is the maximum number of resources that a component can use. You use this

number to ensure a single component does not consume all of the shared resources.

The MSC configuration you choose greatly affects the performance of your BCM system. Make

sure you consider the needs of your users, including peak usage times, when selecting the

minimum and maximum values. Table 17 describes the advantages and disadvantages of changing

these values.

Value Advantage Disadvantage

Increasing

Minimum Value

Increases the guaranteed level of service for a

component. The DSP resources you assign as a

Minimum are always available to the users of

this component.

Decreases the flexibility of DSP resource

sharing. DSP resources that are assigned to the

Minimum value are not shared with other

components. If you set the Minimum level too

high, other components may not be available

due to a lack of available DSP resources.

Decreasing

Minimum Value

More DSP resources are available to share with

other components. When there is a large pool of

shared DSP resources, BCM more readily

adapts to changing component use.

Lower guaranteed level of service for this

component. If the Minimum value is too low, it is

possible that some users will not be able to

access this component when other components

are in heavy use.

Increasing

Maximum Value

Allows this component to use more of the

shared DSP resources during times of peak use.

This allows more people to use this component

at the same time.

During times of peak use, this component may

consume all of the shared resources. This may

cause other components to be unavailable to

users.
