The following conference parameters are NOT copied:
Remarks and Remarks History
Lecturer Name (as the backup conference does not include 
participants)
Video Forcing (as the backup conference does not include 
participants)
If a new conference is started or scheduled on one MCU, and the MCU 
failed before the conference was backed up on the second MCU, this 
conference will not be backed up.
Defined participants are not copied between MCUs and they must be 
added manually to the backup conferences.
If the conference is cascaded, it cannot be monitored as one conference.
If the parameters of one conference are updated, they will be 
automatically updated also in the backup conference.
The CDR files are separate on each MCU. A backup conference is 
identified by its prefix and when activated it will contain participants.
