Live Communications Resource Manager Namespace API
This document provides the details of the application programming interface (API) for the Live Communications Resource Manager namespace included with the Microsoft Provisioning System (MPS) in . Contained herein are descriptions of the procedures of this namespace along with method input parameters and return values. In addition, example Extensible Markup Language (XML) requests are provided along with some typical XML responses that the provisioning system returns after a request is submitted to MPS and tasks are completed.
Developers should use this API document as a reference when creating XML requests that initiate Microsoft Office Live Communications Server 2005 resource management provisioning or as a basis for review of the Live Communications Server 2005 Resource Manager named procedures that are implemented in the Web Service.
Overview
The Live Communications Resource Manager namespace is a new namespace for Microsoft Office Live Communications Server 2005 Hosting that exposes a set of Microsoft Provisioning Framework (MPF) public named procedures for Live Communications Server 2005 resource management provisioning. The Live Communications Resource Manager namespace is used by the Live Communications Namespace to allocate and deallocate users from a home server pool. Administrators can also use this namespace to manage a pool of Live Communications Server 2005 home server pool resources which includes adding, modifying, removing, and querying capabilities. This functionality is exposed by a collection of public named procedures that enable you to perform Live Communications Server 2005 home server pool resource management provisioning tasks.
The intended use of this API is for client Web services and client applications that will perform Live Communications Server 2005-specific provisioning tasks.
Dependencies
You install the Live Communications Resource Manager namespace with the MPS Deployment Tool. The functionality of this namespace depends on interaction with other namespaces that are installed with MPS, as follows:
CoreRMO Provider
BlockModelRMO Provider
Managed Active Directory
Managed Hosting
In addition, the Live Communications Resource Manager namespace is also dependent on the Managed Live Communications Namespace API namespace. Therefore, you must ensure that you queue this component for installation with the Tool at deployment design time.
