Edge server components

Question
-
Hi,
In the command line documentation they speak about "AP,DP or MR" components for the activation of the Edge server, but I cannot found the signification of them.
The purpose of this question is to activate only the Acces and A/V and not the Webconferencing.
Regards

Hello Sylvain,
you want to activate the Access Edge Server and the A/V Edge Server but not the web conferencing.
Executing the validation wizard on my Edgeproxy where all of the components were installed and activated the Log showed :
Installed components :
ACCESSPROXY (AP) --> Access Edge Server
MEDIARELAY (MR) --> A/V Edgeserver
DATAPROXY (DP) --> Web conferencing Edge Server
The command line documentation answers your question about the abbreviation "AP" on page 30Edge Servers
You can use Office Communications Server 2007 Command Line to install and activate three edge server roles in the perimeter: The Access Edge Server (formerly Access Proxy in Live Communications Server 2005), A/V Conferencing Edge Server, and Web Conferencing Edge Server. You can activate each server role together or you can activate individual server roles on different servers.
Use the following syntax example to install Edge Servers:
LCSCmd.exe /Server /Action:Activate /Role:AP /Components:AP,DP,MR /Password:My$tr0ngPwd--> All 3 components will be installed and activated in this case
To activate only Access Edgeserver and A/V Conferencing Edgeserver without Web conferencing you should use AP and MR
as components while the Serverrole of the Edgeserver remains AP
LCSCmd.exe /Server /Action:Activate /Role:AP /Components:AP,MR /Password:<Password_of_your_choice>
Be also aware of the note in the Edgeserver Deployment Guide on page 50.Note
An A/V Edge Server and a Web Conferencing Edge Server cannot be activated together on a single computer without also activating an Access Edge Server on the same computer.
Hope this answered your questions.
