Information
The meeting organizer can add a meeting agenda or personal text to the invitation before it
is sent. The meeting organizer can update or cancel the video enabled meeting in the same
manner as for any other meeting.
When the meeting organizer sends the meeting invitation a meeting record is saved in the
Microsoft Exchange Server, the RMX, DMA, RSS and calendaring-enabled endpoints.
RMXs, DMA and calendaring-enabled endpoints poll the Microsoft Exchange Server to
retrieve new meeting records and updates to existing meeting records.
