of the participant’s layout while the Gathering slide is displayed in a smaller video window in the
layout.
● Gathering is not supported in Cascading Conferences.
Gathering Phase Duration
The duration of the Gathering Phase can be customized by the administrator so that it is long enough to be
viewed by most connected participants yet short enough so as not to over extend into the scheduled
conferencing time.
The Gathering Phase duration is configured for the Collaboration Server, by the following System Flags in
system.cfg in the Setup >System Configuration:
● CONF_GATHERING_DURATION_SECONDS
Range: 0 - 3600 seconds
Default: 180 seconds
The Gathering Phase duration of the conference is measured from the scheduled start time of the
conference.
Example: If the value of the flag is set to 180, the Gathering slide is displayed for three minutes to all
participants starting at the conference Start Time, and ending three minutes after the conference Start
Time.
For participants who connect before Start Time, the Gathering slide is displayed from the time of
connection until the end of the Gathering duration period.
● PARTY_GATHERING_DURATION_SECONDS
Range: 0 - 3600 seconds
Default: 15 seconds
The value of this flag determines the duration of the display of the Gathering slide for participants that
connect to the conference after the conference Start Time.
Participants connecting to the conference very close to of the end of the Gathering Phase (when there
are fewer seconds left to the end of the Gathering Phase than specified by the value of the flag) have
the Gathering slide displayed for the time specified by the value of the flag.
Example: If the value of the flag is set to 15, the Gathering Phase slide is displayed to the participant
for 15 seconds.
