Enabling business cards for meetings
By default, the IBM® Sametime® Meeting Server uses the photo stored in the deployment's LDAP directory for display in a meeting's participants list. If you deployed IBM Connections Profiles and are using it to provide business card information for IBM Sametime, you can configure the Sametime Meeting Server to use the same information.
About this task
You can modify the Base Meeting Server's configuration to use the photo stored in Connections rather than the photo stored in the LDAP directory. The Sametime Meetings Base Server can redirect to any image-serving application with any URL format. The userInfoRedirect key is set to true by default and redirects the caller to the actual image URL. The userInfoUrlTemplate key is blank by default but you can enter a URL with a substitution variable to fetch user images. The URL format is expressed as a formatted configuration setting with the parameter replaced by the user's userId (which is configurable, but is typically an email). For example, https://server/userinfo/image?email=user@example.com.
Make this change on every computer where you installed the Sametime Base Meeting Server.
