Set up 
NDS
 Lync resource pools

When getting started with 
NDS
, you must first specify a resource pool. This section describes how to open the Resource Management screens and size a resource pool for an 
NDS
 system.
A resource pool can be a single Notification Delivery Server or a linked group of Notification Delivery Servers configured to work as a farm. The following illustration shows a farm configuration with 500 lines for each of the two servers. The farm configuration has a total of 1,000 lines and the farm counts as a system.

The resource pool sizing is applied at the system level 
NDS
. A system level 
NDS
 can be a single 
NDS
 server or multiple 
NDS
 servers configured as a farm. To assign resource pool sizing at the system level, complete the following steps:
  1. Open the 
    Management
     tab.
  2. Select 
    Resource
     to open the Account Management Form.
  3. Select 
    LyncPhone
     to size the device type.
  4. Add the pool size by calculating the number of lines in an 
    NDS
     system and multiplying it by 1.25. For example, using the previous example, the farm counts as a single system with 1,000 lines so the pool size should be set up for 1,250 lines.
    The pool size should be 1.25 of the total number of lines available at the farm level for each system.
