Populating the VST Directory with On-Premises Users

When your on-premises environment meets the VST prerequisites for the Vocera Voice Server—either through the use of VS 5.2.0 or through the installation of the Vocera Secure Texting Sync Connector on earlier versions of VS—the system automatically creates the VSTContacts and VSTUsers groups in the Global site of the Vocera Voice Server. These groups provide additional communication and internal system capabilities.

When the database of the Vocera Voice Server contains data (that is, during an upgrade), the VSTContacts and VSTUsers groups are created immediately. When the database of the VS is empty (that is, during a new installation), the VSTContacts and VSTUsers groups are created as soon as you create a user or a group in the Vocera Voice Server.

Note: In the Vocera Voice Server Administration Console, set the VSTContacts group to Permission Only to minimize impact to speech recognition. See the Vocera Voice Server Administration Console Guide for information on setting the Permission Only property.
